Recipes

love the organization!!!!

OMG, this page is seriously SUPER DUPER AWESOME … I’ll be living off this page from this day onwards 😀

SO organized, how long did this take you!? :0

You are so cute! I love all of your recipe titles…I can see a cookbook forming already!

Just found you through Heather Eats Almond Butter, because I am so intrigued by all of the blended grains and puddings…I can’t wait to try some of them!

Yay for a recipe page!

What a cute blog girl! I love your recipes! 🙂

Hello Katie, can u possibly send me your chocolate cake recipe, the one that was made by video with your daughter. I saved it for making for my grand daughters birthday cake , but it was deleted by mistake . I would be most great full ,Thank you . Mary

mary,
I think you’re mistaking my blog with someone else’s. I’ve not done a video post on chocolate cake. I hope you find what you’re looking for. Good luck!!

this page is like the best present ever! I feel like its christmas and can’t wait to try it all. I thought no one in the world loved chocolate and peanut butter as much as me. and now there is someone and someone who does it healthy! Which is always my struggle since I am also a fitness fanatic. Now is there a chocolate chip banana bread recipie on here somewhere???

Katie! Ahem! You never posted the mushroom stroganoff recipe! And if your archives are correct (which, I, erm, assume them to be since they are archives and organized by a computer :p) you said on Oct. 29 2008 (a long time ago) that you would post it in your next post. Either I have yet to find it or you never did??
🙂

I have some recipe requests. Not sure if you’ve made any of these, but: banana bread, rice crispy treats, pizza, homemade veggie corn dogs, brocoli cheese soup, gingerbread men cookies, and danish.

I want to try your gingerbread butter or raw gingerbread men!

hi! i just ran across your blog and have now bookmarked it – spending my night digging through to catch up! just wanted to say how much i appreciate the recipes as well as health and body perspective as posted elsewhere.

Ok. I’ve just stumbled across your blog and am now severely annoyed that I’m only just finding it and haven’t been trying all these delicious recipes for ages. I think that some of these may prove to be real winners for me on my early run days – which is awesome for me as I need something before a run and have struggled to find stuff that works. Now I just have to decide what to start with! I see some very yummy days coming up though that’s for sure 🙂

HI KATIE!(:
I really love your recipes♥
After spending hours on the net, i finally found what i wanted to see(:
I’m on a diet now, so is there any diet plan i could follow from here to loose weight???(:
Thanks!
God bless!(:

Hi
I adore your blog, it has lots of tempting and perfectly healthy recipes, and lots and lots of chocolate and peanut butter!
I’m a fairly new vegan since moving to America but when I visited home recently (my beautiful Australia) I found eating vegan quite a challenge, especially at restaurants. Do you have any advice on veganizing meals at not so vegan-minded restaurants?
Thanks and please please keep posting your yummy goodness!:)

OKAY KATIE!^^THANKS!I WILL!^^

I love the updated page! Well done Katie 😀

Love the new recipe page, Katie! So easy to navigate!

Awe! This WHOLE page is making my life complete!!!! I love the organization! 😀

I love you…. hahahaha 🙂

I love your recipes!! What kind of oats do you use for the baked oatmeal cakes?? Also I attempted to make coconut butter and failed miserably!! I have a magic bullet, any tips??

Hey Katie,
I tried this recipe i found on the web the other day (can’t remember where i found it though) and thought i should share it with you.
Its for a chocolate avocado mousse recipe

1 Avocado
1/4 cup of cacao powder
Agave nectar or honey to taste (i used 1/4 cup, but i like it sweet)
1 tsp of vanilla

Blend it all together until it is very smooth and creamy, put in the fridge to chill and enjoy the richest chocolatey mousse ever.
Next time i’m going to add some hazelnut butter, so it will taste like a nuttella mousse…oh i am soo excited.

Hi Katie,

this is fantastic. The only thing I miss from my non vegan days are the desserts. I love to bake and find it really hard to find nice/DELICIOUS vegan treats for me and the family, who are not yet vegan. I am so excited I am going to spend hours sifting through your recipies. I can’t wait to get started.

Thank you so much for being here and saving my sweet tooth.
Yours in gratitude,
Sarah

Can I make a really random suggestion/comment??? Okay I’m going to whether you want it or not- I’m good at unsolicited advice lately. Anyway, I come to this page, and I get excited about the pictures, so I try to click them.. but they aren’t links to what I think they should be.. 🙁 Ex: I am going to make some oatmeal pancakes for breakfast, yumm! So I clicked the picture of the delish-looking pancakes.. which just took me to another picture of the pancakes. Still delish-looking, but I was hoping it would take me the same place as the hyperlinked text below.
Not sure if it’s possible to link the picture too?? That’s my suggestion. Either way, I’m making these pancakes for breakfast, and I’m excited! 🙂

Hi Katie!

I think your organisation is perfect! 🙂 everyone can find what they want very easily ,I guess (even if I can’t believe these are all of your recepies if you make a new blog entry every day.. 😉

Just another suggestion: Maybe you could also group them by purposes like wedding *g*, holidays and so on….

Recently I was looking for some vegan party snacks (especially fingerfood) that are as healthy as possible and especially sugar-free ( I can’t prepare a batch of muffins without eating some – too many- of them …) and easily to transport on a bicycle (so facy creamy cakes don’t work unfortunately..). Do you have any suggestions?
Would be cool if you had an idea :).
Thanks and keep posting 🙂

Janine

Thanks for the great recipes, my friend Gloria brings in some of the stuff she makes from your recipes and they are so yummy thanks both of you 🙂 .

I also have my girlfriend going to make some of your recipes

Greetings! I LOVE YOUR BLOG. I have tried many things. I keep sending people your way via facebook and such. Keep it up!

Have you used coconut crystals as a sweetener? Tastes very similar to brown sugar or sucanat but healthy, low glycemic value.

Okay, so I am completely obsessed with your array of yummy desserts! I am not vegan, but I am pescetarian. I used to eat meat, and the only thing I miss is BBQ sauce. I know that sounds weird but I love it so much! Unfortunately, now I don’t know what to eat it on! Does anyone have an idea?

Also have you tried using truvia as a sweetener?

Just FYI — unless I missed it (a very likely possibility, haha), it looks like your Soy-Free Vegan Cream recipe isn’t linked to here. I’m about to make your Strawberry Shortcake Pancakes (yum!!) I just bought & couldn’t find it.

On a side note, your blog is freaking awesome!! I began w/ your Chocolate-Chip Blondies and have made a ton of your recipes since, and they have all been crazy delicious! I’m so happy to have found a healthy vegan dessert site — thanks!

**Ignore the random “I just bought” in the middle of my sentence. Editing mistake, whoops! 😛

I love your baked oatmeal for one because it’s so customizable and you can keep around for an easy, healthy breakfast!

i’ve been hunting for new recipes lately and feel SOO lucky to have stumbled upon this blog. i absolutely can’t wait to bake away 🙂

I love love love your blog, Katie. I view recipe after recipe, only imagining when I can go home from work to try something new. I’ve tried some your creations on my food blog and have only received great feedback.

I am dying for cinnamon rolls. I don’t think I’ve eaten any in at least 5 years. Do you have a recipe for those?

Hi, Kate! I’m a teenager who just discovered she has a long list of food allergies. My allergies include; milk, soy, wheat, rice, peanuts, corn, beef, and I’m sure I’m forgetting something. I already knew about your website, but quickly came back when I heard of my food allergies. This is so helpful! It’s nice to know I won’t have to give up sweets! I’ve found a lot of great recipes that cater to my restrictions! Thank you so much!

Hey! I’m in loooove with your website! I’ve just recently become super health-conscious and love experimenting with recipes. I’ve never been good at following recipes, but I usually use several recipes at once as references and your recipes have been at the front of all my desserts lately. I’ve stumbled on a problem, though. I’m trying to make a flourless chocolate cake using sweet potato. I haven’t been able to find any recipe of this type, either. I came up with a recipe using about a cup of sweet potato puree, 3 eggs, half a banana, a handful of oats, copious amounts of cocoa powder (6 Tbs?…) and about 1/3C honey/molasses, as well as a bit of baking powder&soda. Its not quite sweet enough. Do you have any suggestions other than more honey/molasses/sugar? (I actually ran out of sugar about a month ago and have just been finding other ways to cope without buying more haha)
Thank you!

Looks great. You have revamped your blog a couple of times. Both times have made it much easier to find recipes. Thanks.

georgous new page katie!!

Hi Katie!
I just found your blog today when I was searching for a banana pancake recipe for one…sooo delicious! I was very happy to discover that you’re also vegan! I began eating vegetarian recently (about 7 months ago) and I’m always searching for yummy new recipes! Thanks for all of the great recipes!

Katie!
Idea: set aside a tab or list of recipes by ingredient. Example: All sorts of recipes using coconut butter. There are several ingredients that you use so frequently! I finally caved and ordered coconut butter. It came today and I’m surfing around to carefully select which recipe I’ll try first. Love your stuff. Which coconut butter recipe should I start with?

Kate

of theres a recipe that involves flower i was wondering if i could just use oat bran? somehow i lost my flour :/

hi! question: which pancakes are in the picture for the pancakes link? i drool every time i visit and bought whole wheat flour just to make some!

Katie, do you have any recipes that feature plums?

I am so happy to have found your blog!

This recipe page is freaking awesome! Love that it’s so organized! 🙂 Can you do mine for me? Ha ha ha!

Hi Katie,

Firstly, I love your website! Thank you so much for sharing your recipes with all of us, including those of us in Australia! I have recently had a little boy and made the decision to cut out sugar and gluten so I have the energy to keep up with the little fella! Fortunately I have a sweet tooth! I say fortunately because your recipes have allowed me to contine to enjoy and satisy my sweet cravings without the guilt or decline in energy levels. Now I would like to share one of my favorite recipes with you!

Better for you Pancakes (Serves 2)
1 cup Traditional Oats
3/4 cup Fat-free Cottage Cheese
pinch of cinnamon
2 eggs
Combine in a food processor or blender, panfry, then top with your favorite fresh fruit and a dash (behave) of maple syrup!

So delicious! I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

Cheers,
Jess

All of these sound delicious. Can’t wait to try. My kids of course are always wanting dessert and this will make it easier to give them a healthy treat without guilt. Thanks for helping us eat healthier while still enjoying our faves.

I have a question for you: What do you eat at night (if you get hungry)? I get hungry every night and need some good ideas that are both healthy and won’t keep me up, do you have any ideas?

I wonder how your ultimate chocolate fudge pie would be if, you combine that recipe with the “Honey I Shrunk the Reese’s” page. I think I am going to give it a whirl tomorrow. Thank you for the inspiration!! I love your site!

I discovered this site yesterday and have already made four of your recipes – all so good and filling, and I can’t wait to make them for my family and friends. Have you published a cook book? ‘Cause I could see it being a real success… Thanks for sharing your talent!

Katie your blog has opened my eyes to a beautiful world of chocolatey goodness. I was just wondering if you could posibly make a vegan, healthy pumpkin pie. I love pumpkin pie and all your other pumpkin recipies have been winners! So I was thinking a pumpkin pie would be a great addition to the big box of recipies.

I have NEVER liked cooking or baking or anything that involves food. Since stumbling upon this website I have found myself in the kitchen trying out new recipes every chance I get! I love it and thank you so much for allowing me to find the fun in food!

I love your pictures. What camera do you have?

Hi Katie,

I just wanted to ask if you had a healthy, vegan version of a cheesecake, it’s my favorite but I don’t want the bad things in it.

Please let me know if you do 🙂

Hi i am baking my own boxed sugar free cake mix what would be a good sub for the three eggs and 1/2c of oil besides egg whites for the eggs?

Hi Katie,

I have a question. I make tons and tons of your recipes, and I just started a blog (like, LITERALLY today). I’m sure that my posts will be about baked good sometimes. If I make one of your recipes, is it okay to include it in a post as long as I credit you and link to your site? I’ll take my own photos.

Let me know! Thanks 🙂

Hi Katie. Love your site and all the luscious looking recipes. Printed many off hoping to get around to making them. I’m just curious, I know this is a “chocolate” site and there is nothing better than eating chocolate every single day, but I’m wondering what you eat for your mealtimes? Your desserts are so healthy, I’m wondering what type of foods you eat on a regular basis. Can you share sometime? thanks.

I am a low carb guy and really appreciate what you do!

I have recently found your website through Pinterest. I must say that your recipes sound delicious and I can’t wait to try some of them. Keep up the great work and I look forward to the next recipe in my in-box.

Where have you been all my life! Im in serious trouble cause I want to make one of your recipes every day! They are such a great healthy alternative and so simple with so few ingredients…I also enjoy all the humor! Entertaining and inspiring….I will be enjoying your page for as long as we both shall live! lol 🙂

I love your blog! You’ve inspired me to go vegan (again). I was vegan for 1 year and then I returned to Germany ( I am German…) and it turned out to be really difficult as everyone had an opinion about what I would eat. I felt very insecure. Well, now I decided WHAT EVER! I am going to turn vegan. It’s my life, I can do what ever I want. 🙂 Have a great day!

Hello,

I love your blog, SO many of these things look absolutely fabulous and I’ve even tried a few. I love that you make most of them healthy! Clearly I realize this blog is based in chocolate but I was wondering if you could do a snicker doodle cookie. I see you have a snicker doodle pancake and blondies and why not just round it off with actual cookies! Thank you so much for all your time.

-Alan

Oh my, I just tried your melted banana idea in my oatmeal! I love banana’s and never would have thought about melting one but it was AMAZING! Thanks for the great idea!

Just tryed the one minute chocolate cake =) YUMMY!! was size of a mug and very satisfying indeed. Dont be fooled by the quanity lol i thought i would have still been hungry afterwards but nope no way im too full =D big points in my book! Now added to my favourites 🙂

Hey Katie 🙂

I’m the girl looking for cookie cutter recipes

Hi Kate,

I made you fantastic oatmeal larabars and loved them! I want to make them again but did not save the recipe. 🙁 i tried to click on the link but didn’t have any luck. Any ideas?

WOW! you are so quick! Thank you so much! I can’t wait to make them again when I get home from work. 🙂

I was wondering if you drink/eat any soy protein? I know it takes a little work to get a good amount of protein as a vegan (me being one). If so, what brand do you use??

I was wondering if you like/make crepes! I think that would be a wonderful addition to your wonderful recipes (if you like them!) Just a thought!! Plus I would love to know how to make them

Hi Katie!

Thought I’d let you know that I included some of your gingerbread PB and pumpkin PB in the holiday gift baskets I made for my friends — they adored both! I also included a butter recipe of my own — caramel apple peanut butter. I believe I blended up…1 cup of homemade PB, 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, a splash of vanilla, a LOT of cinnamon (maybe a tbsp?), 1/2 tsp red food coloring, and around 1/4 cup of honey. Although I’m sure it would taste fine with agave instead of honey, or even without sweetener. You should try it out sometime! 🙂

Hi Katie,
Since I found your blog two weeks ago, I have been making the 1-Minute choc cake everyday and have recently started baking the Not-Guilty choc chip cookies. They are out of this world! I love that you use whole grains, a bit of healthy fat and minimal sugar in your recipes. That is just the way I like my desserts! I also have a little baby, and am really excited that there are healthy desserts we can make together when she gets older. Yes, we will be making your desserts for years to come!

A couple questions for you: 1) You seem to use spelt flour in a lot of your recipes. Is there a reason you opt for that particular flour? Can I sub with ww pastry flour or oat flour? 2) I am planning to make your sugar cookies next. How did you make the frosting for those cookies? Also, do you have any good recipes for healthy cream cheese frosting (for cinnamon rolls)?

Thanks again, Katie!

Ah. Meant to say candy apple peanut butter, not caramel apple. /facepalm. Haha.

i would really like to subscribe to your daily blog via email but it wont seem to let me… how can i fix this?

Hi Katie, I found your site for the first time today from Skinnytaste! LOVEEEEE IT!!! So I never heard of a Vita-Mix til now…. it’s expensive! what are some good alternatives? Thank you so much and I am so excited to try your recipes. I shared your site with my office and a bunch of friends! YUM!

Someone mentioned your website at weight watchers and a recipe for pumpkin bread oatmeal in a bowl but I can’t find the recipe?? I love your website!’. Happy New Year

Thank you SO MUCH! I am a MASSIVE chocolate fan who really has to watch my weight. Not because of health exactly, just because I have been 215lbs and got down to a reasonable 130 and added a bit more on but don’t need to get anywhere near that 200 again! And I WILL NOT give up my chocolate! And your site will help in SO MANY WAYS not to give it up!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Hi Katie!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog! However, if I could wish for one thing (kind of in response to your post about New Years improvements), I would love a more comprehensive list of recipes. I always find new ones on posts and that one leads me to another, and another, etc. Which is great! But sometimes they are difficult to find again, so maybe a complete list (of links?) would help! 🙂 Thanks!!

Hey Katie! I just felt like I had to post a comment on your blog. Your recipies are absoutly amazing I tell you. I don’t even bother to look at any other dessert sites. You got it all! I love how they have so many healthy twists to them, yet there are still SO delicious. I would love to see some more tips on taking pictures of the food- I always do that when I make your desserts, also so that I can show you what I’ve made 🙂 I totally love yours Lara bars, so quick, convenient and healthy. Any other recipes that are tasty yet healthy are a go for me 🙂

Anyways, I’m looking forward to some new dessert recipes, I’m always checking up on your blog when I have a sweet tooth 🙂 It really is my new obsession.. hehe! Thanks so much for all the recipes Katie, you really are great at what you do!

– Jess xo

Please make us a cookbook!

Making girl scout cookie larabars and the oatmeal cookie larabars for my dad. He LOVES dates and dried fruits and has a sweet tooth, but is also a diabetic. Can’t wait for him to try them!!!!!!

Like so many, I too find this blog absolutely amazing. My roommates think I’m completely crazy when I make stuff like pumpkin boatmeal and fudgebabies, but they are missing out, big time! So many amazing recipes!

I’m new to your blog and the treat in the picture above the “Baked Goods” link looks delicious but I can’t find a recipe to match that picture! Is there a recipe for what appears to be chocolatey-peanut buttery deliciousness?

Just stumbled upon your page, and oh my, those photos are beautiful! Can’t wait to try out some of these recipes!

Kate…I just thought I should tell you that I’m in love with you and we should get married…. but it could just be the recipes talking… I’m not sure… *giggle*
Thank you for all the amazing recipes! I found you via Pintrest! <3

I have to admit, I’m a little disappointed that there isn’t a section for low-carb desserts for those of us who are either on Atkins or are diabetic (the two diets are pretty much identical). I’ll probably bookmark this and go through all the recipes one by one to figure out which ones I could use when there’s a day where I’m just hanging out at home with nothing going on.

Absolutely love reading your blog!!! I am a huge fan! Do you have a recipe for gluten-free thin mint cookies? I tried one that was ok but I love your techniques and presentation. Let me know.. Keep up the great vegan goodies!
Ally

I just discovered your blog via pinterest and am SO excited to try out so many of the recipes you have posted. Thanks for sharing:)

Hi Katie! Um where are your bean recipes again?

This all looks soooo delicious! I’m getting very hungry watching your Site 😉

Hey Katie!

I write a fitness blog and also have a serious sweet tooth! I am always trying to find recipes that taste good but also fuel my busy lifestyle and give my body nutrition! I posted your cookie dough recipe that uses chick peas on my blog and will be trying lots of your recipes and posting about them.

Thanks!
Sandy

Hi Katie,

My husband sent me a link to your page today!! Giving me a big hint I needed to try your recipes!
He mentioned seeing a sort on the news about a recipe made with garbanzo beans in cookies???

Can you please share the recipe or direct me to it?

Best wishes,

Andrea

I am a fan! I`m new to the blog and just can`t believe I have lived without it! I also can`t believe you have never been asked to appear on a talk show!!!! You`re extremely talented!

I am so glad I came upon your blog! I just started eating vegan and have been looking a lot of vegan recipes for sweets and desserts that would be guilt free. And when I came upon your blog I was so excited to make all these delicious looking desserts/sweets. I’ve made so many lately and they all taste so wonderful! Thank you for sharing your lovely creations!

You are the best, Katie!!! I just LOVEEEEE you!!!

Looking forward to trying some of these wonderful looking desserts.

Hello,

I was thinking it would be really nice to have a section for all your butters and frostings. I love them but they seem to all be hidden within other post. A section for them would be great and it could be internally divided between the butters and frostings. Just a thought I hope you consider.

Thanks
-Alan

I have only tried one of your recipes so far, but am excited to try the rest. I have found out that I am sensitive to wheat, so your gluten-free ideas sound great. I am also trying to lose weight, so your recipes will help me have some dessert. I do have a couple of questions. Is there a difference between coconut butter and coconut oil (which is in solid form in the store)? Also, do you think brown rice flour could be a substitute for the spelt flour?

I found your blog through Pinterest and want to say a big THANKS for the recipes!

Beth

Hi Kate, would you consider a sort option for your recipes?. I’d like to sort by calories. I just made one of the cookie batches and was so sad that one cookie was 233 calories. I want to eat more goodies and feel good about doing so. I am not as disciplined as you;-(.

hey katie…so I was curious if you have a yummy french toast recipe? I love the pancake recipes so great but hubby likes french toast, I think he’s getting burnt out on pancakes. 🙂

So my family isn’t really that big into eating healthy. My dad is the king of fried foods, mom is the queen of candy and soda. But I think I am going to try one of your dips or desserts for a family members birthday party this weekend and see how it goes over. I won’t be able to tell them it is healthy!! Can’t wait to try your recipes! Hope I can find the ingredients in this area!!

CCK
A friend just posted a link to you on FB and I’m excited! I’ve been a vegan for awhile and love to share and be health!! My favorite vegan recipe website modernmanna.org has a yummy vegan French toast recipe (I add cinnamon to mine):

French Toast
1 cup soy or rice milk
1 cup cashews
3/4 cup dates
2 tablespoons egg replacer
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon vanilla

In a blender combine milk, cashews, and dates. Blend until smooth. While still blending add the rest of ingredients. Pour into a pie or cake pan. Dip bread on both sides and brown in a lightly oiled skillet. Top with pure maple syrup or your favorite fruit topping. Extra batter may be refrigerated and used later.

Recipe by: Modern Manna

I also have a great vegan pasta, like the mac and cheese concept that Heather requested. I order the secret powder mix called “Cheese Flavored Sauce Mix” for the sauce from:
Leahey Gardens

Phone: 866-9LEAHEY

My meat-eating husband loves the “vegan pasta”.

Stay healthy! 🙂

In one week you have become my very favorite person …. and my husband’s favorite person….. I have spent everyday trying at least TWO of your recipes and every meal is becoming so much FUN! Now, I have to admit the housework has suffered, but my husband has overlooked that because of all your great food! Can’t wait to keep trying more!

Do you have any quick and easy recipes for slices? like just using sultanas and coconut and things you find around the house- im so keen for some slice cooking!

Katie, I found your blog today and it literally (no, seriously…LITERALLY) made me want to cry tears of joy! I love your writing, your spunk, and your passion for making yummy, HEALTHY food. You truly have a gift…thank you SO MUCH for sharing it with us! XO

I know this is a chocolate covered blog (and I love it, promise!) but with a very WARM Wisconsin spring, I’ve been craving something light and lemony! I’ve looked around the blog, but do you have any veganized versions of a lemon bar? They are one of my faves! and I think they’d be a hit as we make our way into warmer months! Thanks! 🙂

Helppp!

Your Cookies and Bars link isn’t working. =[

Hi, I’m sure you’re just inundated with comments and questions all day so I won’t be offended or anything if you don’t ever get to this question.. I’m a mostly-vegan with annoying stomach issues so I can’t do (a lot) of gluten or (a lot) of sugar or fructose or sugar alcohols… yeah, tons of fun. I found these great bars, Nugo Slim, that are sooo close to perfect. Except (1) I’d like to step away from relying on whey protein and (2) they’re kind of light as in I eat one and they’re fun and all but don’t really hit the spot. Like Crunch bars.

So I was thinking, who better to make a vegan delicious version than you? The soy crisps they use are fun, but maybe if they also had something with tooth like almond meal or oats or..? So they’re more a 200 calorie 20g protein “meal snack” or breakfast (in a diet that is 5 small meals a day) and cheaper per serving would be great too, of course.

Here’s the bars:

http://store.nugonutrition.com/products/20102.html

Anyway, just an idea. I love your site and recipes by the way, you’re such a positive and happy person it’s a pleasure to read your posts every day. You’ve let me love chocolate (my all time favorite food), and helped me figure out how to eat it again.

Please post some cakes receipes. please

Katie your website has just lit up my life. I’ve sworn off sugar, white flour, chips, excessive refined oils (but not nuts and seeds) for a year, as a present to my husband for valentine’s day. He got me a vitamix! I don’t know who I love more, my vitamix or my hubby! Just kidding. But your website makes healthy vegan eating so fun and positive, thank you, thank you, thank you. Your emphasis on chocolate really strikes a responsive chord in my chocolate loving soul.

Hi Katie,
I just stumbled upon your website today and everything looks amazing! I think this may be my new “most visited” site!

I was wondering, it seems like most of your dessert recipes call for a food processor. Are there any that don’t need one or that I can use a blender for instead?

You have some great stuff going on here! 🙂

I have been a Healthy Chocoholic (Xocai) for almost 5 years now and have no intention of ever having a day that Healthy Chocolate is not a part of. I not only eat it; but, I love to make lots of different chocolate treats. Finding your website is a dream come true! I LOVE your recipes and am SO excited to start making some of them.

Thank You!!!!

P.S. If you haven’t tried Xocai, the Healthy Chocolate, visit http://www.AskMeAboutHealthyChocolate.com and check it out…..it’s is AWESOME.

Katie, I love your recipes and are using many of them. I would like to say though, that canola oil is really a bad choice. By the time it reaches the plastic bottle made with BPA and gets to the grocery stores it is rancid. I think you would be interested in reading about the health value of coconut oil and safflower oil. Thank you for giving us your forum for healthy options.

I stubbled accross your website and have been addicted ever since. I am vegan/gluten free. I check in at least once a day to see what I can make next. I have made about 10 of your recipes and loved every one! I have recommended your website to about a dozen others! Keep it up! You are adorable as well as talented!

Hi, Katie. I just found your site through a link on Pinterest. I really appreciate your kindness in sharing all these wonderful discoveries with the world. I am a Mom of 3 gorgeous Princesses, Jasmine (6), Ariel (4) and Bella (2). My husband and I are transitioning our family to a vegetarian diet (I am a veg, he is getting there). With 3 little ones, a husband who works away and a homeschooling my older 2, I am super-busy. But I’ve made efforts to cut back and elminate sugar and white carbs for them, too. Sadly, because of my lack of time to make old recipes healtheier, we just haven’t had sweets around and fell prey to purchased cookies and candy on occassion. NO MORE! Now that I’ve found your site, I have a wonderful resource for tested recipes that are good for my family, and I am so excited.
I made your original fudge babies last night. Everyone gobbled them up and asked for more, including my husband and visiting sister. She politely declined, as a dieter, until I said they had no sugar. The rest is history, and so are the fudge babies. You just saved me tons of time and money trying to reinvent the wheel. I’m thanking God for your passion and talent!

Hi, I am wondering where to find your recipe for chocolate chip cookie pie (pictured above link to all dessert recipes), I am probably over-looking it, but I can’t seem to find it anywhere and it looks delicious. Thanks!

Would love to buy all these recipes in a cookbook for pdf form. Would you sell them so I could print them all off? What fun ideas!!!

I bought dates to soak for 8hrs for a recipe, and I can’t remember which one it was! HELP!

Lemon pie! any suggestions there, can’t wait been fighting the craving to long. made the chocolate pie w/tofu, love that. thanks in advance

Hi Katie 🙂 one of my most missed treats has to be kit-kat bars. Do you think you could come up with a vegan kit-kat bar?? I would be oh so greatful!!

Katie,

I’m glad you are taking the hard work out of people like myself. I appreciate the recipes! I have been recovering from cancer, and people say that weight gain does not happen during this time, but I’m proof it does. I have slowed down sooo much, that I feel that every ounce of food I eat goes to fat. It is nice when you can just get a ready made recipe right there for you. May God bless you for your work!
Thank you
Sandi

This page is so great, Now I want to make everything on here. I can’t cook to save my life, but it look so simple and so healthy! Love this page!

Hi Katie! First of all, THANK YOU!! For this awesome blog, for taking the time to make & test all these recipes, for the inspiration, and for sharing it all with us! My entire family has loved literally every recipe I’ve made from here, and all our guests as well – most of whom aren’t into eating “healthy”. They can’t tell the difference! SO YUM! You’ve gotten my little girl (& husband!) to eat *healthy* food – and enjoy it!
Second, I was wondering – is it possible to mention how much each recipe yields? Or are we to assume that all recipes are made for one (or for small quantities)? It’s possible that you list this somewhere for each one, and I’m just missing it. It would be really helpful to have an idea before starting each recipe – ie in terms of planning/possibly doubling, etc. Thank you!

I am signed up for your email and have convinced my mother to sign up! 2 of 3

Gunna comment over here too..

No tea biscuit or scone recipe!

And you, of ALL people, would have the best and most healthy version out there, too. 😛

Oh my goodness, I stumbled across your blog through a link that a friend of a friend posted on Facebook for the 5 minute carrot cake and I’m so glad that I did!! I spent most of last night reading it, and this morning I just couldn’t help myself coming back for more! I love the recipes which have the most unexpected healthy things in, like dates and chickpeas, I can’t wait to try them all! Although maybe not all at once 😀 But yes, thank you for this amazing blog!

Katie I need your help!! I was wandering through some recipes the other night and somewhere I saw some kind of recipe for jam, and I remember that it used a blender of some kind and that you’d said something about it being jam, but with none of the sugar, and now I just can’t find it again! I know it wasn’t smashberry jam, I think it was literally just fruit and another ingredient in a blender and voilà but it’s driving me mad cos I really wanted to try it! Don’t worry if you can’t think of what I’m talking about though; it is entirely possible that the whole thing was a dream but hopefully not, it looked really good. Thanks!

I just love your blog! I’ve made several recipes on here, and almost everyone has turned out delicious! (it’s partly my fault for some of them, i forgot to add stuff or something like that)
My favorite are the pumpkin pie brownies!

THANK YOU!!! Love your recipies 🙂

I am just amazed by this page I am a raw chocolate feen & this will help me get my fix many different ways!!!! Thanks!!!!!! 🙂

Hi! I just saw a recipe for cheesy cauliflower tater tots, but the recipe calls for eggs. do you think you could make a vegan version of this? sounds like a great idea! 🙂 Also, love this site, gives me hope that I can eat healthy and still actually enjoy healthy food besides green smoothies haha

Any chance of a healthy baby Ruth??

I love your recipes! It’s just so hard to use them, because I’m not very good to convert cups and other american measures to metrics 🙁

I Like your website but I like to print out the recipes but I can’t find a print sign. can you e-mail me on how to print your recipes. Tkanks.

You’ve inspired me – hopefully you’ll deem this recipe I came up with over the past couple of days worthy of inclusion in your blog!

You’ll Never Guess Chocolate Pudding!

(No dairy, no gluten, no sugar and surprise healthy ingredients!)

½ ripe avocado (make sure it yields slightly to touch like a ripe pear)
1/3 lb Silken Tofu
2 squares unsweetened Bakers chocolate
8 packets Truvia (I like dark chocolate so I’m not used to things being SUPER sweet – 8 packets should do it but feel free to add 1 or 2 more to taste)
Dash vanilla extract
Tiny pinch salt
4-5 Tblspns regular almond milk (or rice milk)

Blend avocado and tofu and vanilla extract in blender until smooth. Melt chocolate squares with dash almond milk in microwave for 1 minute, stir until completely melted (may need to micro for a few more seconds – if too hot add dash more almond milk and stir to smooth out). Add melted chocolate and Truvia to avocado/tofu mixture and blend until completely smooth. Divide into 3-4 pudding dishes and chill in refrigerator for 20- 30 minutes until set. I don’t think it will really last more than a day or so (no preservatives and it’s yummy) so only make a batch the size that you’ll eat within that time. Whips up quickly though.
I also tried adding a drop or two of banana extract – that was awesome (you could probably add real banana too but haven tried that). I’m thinking mint chocolate or raspberry might be tasty too!
Try it and let me know what you think.

OMG CCK, I recently found your website and I have already tried three of your recipes!!

1. The chocolate chip blondies
2. The deep dish cinnamon roll pie (complete with cinnamon bun frosting)
3. The deep dish chocolate chip cookie pie

I have loved every single one!!! Thank you for producing a website for people like me who have a ridiculous sweet tooth. I now can enjoy the yummy desserts I have always loved without feeling guilty about it. Love it!

I can not tell you how much your website means to me! I recently found out that I’m allergic to 18 different things and some of them are in everything..corn, egg, peanuts, and Benzoic acid. I’m going through an allergy elimination period and it is rough. I recently found your blog and finally found some recipes that I can eat to satisfy my sweet tooth. Thank you so much for what you are doing. You are AWESOME!!!!!!

first off I love your recipes I’ve been trying them one by one and never been disappointed!
But I actually have a question,
I’m newly vegan and I can’t seem to find a straight answer to my question of whether or not tofu can be eaten straight from packaged form or if it has to be cooked?

YOURS is the only site I come to for dessert recipes. PERIOD. I have even made a binder full of CCK recipes for even easier access… I just can’t get enough! I have made many of your recipes, and every one is better (OR just as good) as the last!! THANK YOU! You’ve made my life complete 😉 !

Hey Katie. I love your recipes and have tried several of them. With Halloween around the corner, I am dreading trying to get by the candy isle without buying the junk that fills the shelves. But I LOVE candy corn! Any chance you have or want to come up with a candy corn recipe??? BTW, your Reese’s eggs is my favorite recipe and make them way too often!

Katie, I LOVE your blog! All the desserts look sooo good! I was just wondering if you could post fat, carbs, fiber and protein for each one so I can calculate Weight Watchers Points? Thank you so much and keep making those yummy sweets!

hiya Katie! I’ve been obsessed with the yummy stuff on your blog and leaving comments almost every day! I hope your not sick of me.
I been thinking what about adding a bit of kosher/vegan friendly gelatin to the volume vanilla ice cream to make it thicker/creamier?

Hi Katie! I’ve got a vitamix blender recently. While looking for interesting ideas online, I have accidentally stumbled upon your recipe blog. And wow! After browsing the recipes for oatmeal and ice-cream, I am sold. So many yummy and healthy things that my family and I will certainly enjoy. What appeals to me the most is the simplicity and flexibility of your recipes.
Thank you!
