Simple Orange Chocolate Oatmeal for Breakfast

Looking for the perfect bowl of oatmeal? Look no further. This recipe for orange chocolate oatmeal for breakfast is so simple to make, and the combination of flavours makes it feel like dessert in the morning.

Nothing better on these cold, dark mornings than a nice steaming bowl of nourishing oatmeal for breakfast. My smoothies have taken a back seat, but with them has gone my daily addition of medicinal mushroom blend. Medicinal mushrooms have been making regular appearances in health enthusiast diets and for good reason!

Two Ingredient Raw Chocolate Recipe [Vegan]

By 2 Comments

Making 100% raw chocolate at home has never been easier, no added oils or fussing required. This Two Ingredient Raw Chocolate Recipe is as authentic as it gets and packed full of flavanols for an antioxidant punch!

The use of chocolate medicinally dates back at least 3,000 years. The health benefits have been linked to epicatechin, a flavanol found in the cacao bean (1), and current day research supports its use for various health conditions. If you’re a chocolate lover like me you likely appreciate the full complexity of flavour that real good quality chocolate provides.

Medicinal Dark Chocolate Bark Three Ways [Vegan, GF]

By 3 Comments

This post for Dark Vegan Chocolate Bark Made Three Ways is sponsored by iHerb. As always the opinons are absolutly my own.

For me, nothing compares to the dedication and ingenuity of a homemade DIY Christmas Gift. The reducing, reusing and repurposing helps lessen our environmental footprint during this season of excess. Some take advantage of their handy nature, while others zone in on their crafty skills, but for me, I often gift edible Christmas presents which has included Peanut Butter Energy Balls or Toasted Muesli In a Jar in the past. This Medicinal Dark Vegan Chocolate Bark Made Three Ways is made using maple syrup and real cocoa butter for the authentic chocolate taste. Some of my favourite flavour combinations for this Chocolate Bark include Peppermint and Toasted Coconut, Cherries and Toasted Almonds, and Coffee and Cacao Nibs. This Christmas I’ve also added a little medicine (or some may say magic) to this bark for a truly healthy start to the New Year.

Today I’m turning 27. I have a pretty clear memory of all the birthday cakes that helped to get me to this age.

Now, the more health conscious Rachel has opted to forgo the refined carbohydrates, saturated fat and sugar packed desserts and instead…. is having the best chocolate avocado mousse you have ever had!!!!
