Vegan Cashew Ricotta Cheese
With my posts for Spinach Pesto and Cashew Cheese Sauce, you may have noticed that my recent recipes have been for basics. I’ve decided to create a series of blog posts with some of my go-to sauces and condiments for two reasons. First, I’ve been hard at work on my second e-book (which is now…
My Go-To Vegan Cashew Cheese Sauce
There’s no dairy in this rich and creamy cashew cheese sauce! The cheesy flavor comes from a blend of nutritional yeast, lemon juice, and miso. This is my go-to cashew cheese. I spread it on raw “bread” for sandwiches in the summertime, drizzle it on nachos when I want a little snack, and pour…

Fresh Tomato Salsa and No Bean Hummus from Williams Sonoma’s Celebrate Vegan Day Recipes
Time for a snack? Whip up some Fresh Tomato Salsa and No Bean Hummus, grab some cut veggies, and chow down! Over the weekend I participated in a Celebrate Vegan Day at my local Williams Sonoma. I new I was going to be attending later in the event, so I premade raw salsa and hummus and served…

I really love Amber Shea Crawley’s first book Practically Raw, so I was super excited when I heard she was working on a follow up dessert book.
