Simple Pumpkin Spice Vegan Ice-Cream




As Fall approaches my inner teenage girl starts salivating with the possibility of pumpkin-spiced-everything. It's cliche and I don't care because it is also delicious. The apple, another fall favorite I'm uber excited for, does not fall far from the tree; our toddler is obsessed. 



I'm happy to oblige this fall favorite but I wanted him to have some healthy options. I've made a couple versions of this but finally settled on a simple, fruit sweetened, and vegan delight. If you want some instant gratification try the Paleo Mama's pumpkin banana ice-cream. I totally made some while I waited for ours to freeze. When I shared the sneak peek on Instagram @mommyandherlatte I think I said it has 4 ingredients, I guess it's technically 5, but either way its really easy to make and some clean ingredients. Enjoy!

Vegan Sweet Creamed Corn


Hi! I'm still here. I've taken a long break from posting because, well, life has been happening. A lot of good but also a lot of scary change. I am finally ready and able to get back to posting; I've missed this creative outlet. I will be sharing the full story in the future but for now I will just say it has been a stressful couple of months. I am completely the type of person that will stress eat. So I've been trying to make comfort food that is still healthy, but also easy to throw together. Not only does this dish have corn, which I have admitted my relentless love for, but it is also inspired by a dish my husband's Mema makes. Nothing is more comforting than Mema's food. This side dish was enough for two adults and a toddler so double for a larger family. It is very adaptable and comes together in about 15 minutes. It is the perfect end of summer dish. Enjoy!
