These hearty breakfast bars remind me of a granola bar or an omega-3 packed power bar.  They’re filling and tasty. After I made a batch of these and was waiting for them to cool before cutting and stylizing them for a “photo shoot,” my younger son proudly taunted me that he had picked out all

Vegan Vanilla Ice Cream

Posted in the desserts category on May 23, 2009

This is my favorite ice cream.  It’s vegan.  It’s vanilla.  And it’s yummy. I’ve been making this ice cream for the last couple of years.  Way back when in my New York days, my raw food friends turned me on to the fact that cashews make an amazing substitute for dairy.  While I love this
