Basic Veggie and Bean Burgers

July 31, 2014 by Christina

Even before becoming a vegan, I always had a fascination with veggie burgers.  One thing that I learned from taste-testing them at numerous restaurants through the years is that no one veggie burger tastes the same because they all contain different combinations of ingredients.  When it comes to making veggie burgers, there are no rules, and creativity is the only real…

“Let it be.”

July 7, 2014 by Christina

Let. It. Be. Three simple words that convey one of the most powerful messages out there.   We all have goals and dreams.  Strengths and weaknesses.  Good days and bad days.  Decisions that we are proud of and those that we regret.  Attributes that we personally like and dislike about ourselves.  Things that we understand and others that confuse…

Basil and Hemp Seed Pesto

June 27, 2014 by Christina
