These pancakes will definitely hit your sweet tooth, but they're also healthy af too! Here's the break down on what I used to make these delicious flap jacks:

My Ingredient List:

-Bob's Red Mill Millet Flour (or any other flour)
-365 Brand Organic Coconut Milk
-Manitoba Hemp Seeds
-Cinnamon
-Ginger
-Organic Maca Root Powder (optional)
-1 banana cut in half
-Grapeseed oil
-Artisan Kettle Organic Chocolate Chips

Time:

10 Minutes

Let's Get It:

I am not the measuring type, but I would recommend starting out with 1-2 cups of flour in a bowl depending on how many pancakes you're making. To make these four pancakes for my greedy self, I used about 1.5 cups. I use millet flour because I love the consistency and it's gluten free.

Next add in about 34-1 cup of coconut milk into the flour. You can use any vegan, dairy free milk you want, coconut happens to be my fave. Next add in half the banana, a few hemp seeds, a dash of ginger, cinnamon, tablespoon of maca powder, a handful of the chocolate chips and about 2 teaspoons of grapeseed oil.

The great thing about the banana in this recipe is that it's not only tasty, but it also works as a vegan substitute for an egg!

Mix all the ingredients together creating a medium consistency, fire up your pan, coat it with grapeseed oil (my favorite oil to cook with) and get to flippin'!

Pour some maple syrup on top and you're all set for breakfast. If you want to be fancy, you can do what I did a slice up the rest of your banana and use it as a topping sprinkled with extra chocolate chips.

 Tis the season for all things pumpkin spiced and everything nice! This time, it's in vegan! A few years ago, my family and I made Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies and boy they were delicious. This time, I wanted to make them plant based to celebrate the season of autumn. 

Pumpkin is thee premier vegetable for fall harvest season. It's packed with vitamin A, fiber, helps your immune system, and even helps with improving skin. So not only are these cookies tasty, but they're also healthy. Let's get into the recipe. 

 Seeing that it's the last major weekend of summer, it's time to celebrate the bbq way. The best thing about this is no animals were harmed and you don't need to slave over a hot grill to get your cook on! I was introduced to vegan bbq cauliflower wings at one of my favorite vegan restaurants, Majani here in Chicago. They're everything. A scrumptious chicken tender vibe without the hen. 

So of course I had to try my hand at making my own! Here's how it went down:

Ingredients:

-Bag of cauliflower 

-Flour (spelt, millet, or garbanzo is what I've used)

-Spring water

-Spices of your choice (I like sea salt, onion powder, and cayenne powder)

-BBQ sauce of your choice 

-Wax paper 

-Baking sheet

-Vegetable oil of your choice 

Steps:

1. Wash your cauliflower. I typically pick about 15 pieces for one batch. Choose as many as you want. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. 

2. Guys, I am not the measuring cup type of girl. I mix flour, water, and spices to a medium-thick batter based off how many pieces of cauliflower I have. 

3. Add a few drops of vegetable oil onto your wax paper and place it onto your baking sheet.

4. Next, begin to take a piece of cauliflower and dip it in the batter and place it onto the wax paper. Do this with all of your cauliflower pieces.

5. Once you're done, bake the cauliflower for 10-15 minutes or until lightly brown.

6. Once the pieces are baked, take the baking sheet out and add your BBQ sauce onto the cauliflower making sure they're covered. Place baking sheet back into the over and bake for another 10-15 minutes.

7. Take out, cool, and enjoy!

These are easy, quick, and scrumptious to make!

I never thought I would be vegan, but here I am. It's officially been three years since I became a plant based vegan. August 2017. Although it's only been a few years into this lifestyle, it seems like it's been forever! 

For the past few years I've been uploading food to social media hashtagged #theflyestvegan and sharing my knowledge about the plant based and holistic lifestyle from food recipes to skincare. Since my journey began, I've been blessed enough for people to come to me for my tips and knowledge as well. Eventually I devised a plan to create this website dedicated to teaching information on food, skincare, holistic medicines and more.

While everything is centered around plant based veganism, this space is welcomed to all who wish to thrive on a plant based lifestyle no matter what level they're on. I aim to provide the best researched and curated information for people of all ages, backgrounds, and walks of life. 

Thank you for coming along with me on this journey!
