Raw Pad Thai from Choosing Raw

August 14, 2014 by Cara

Choosing Raw's Raw Pad Thai

    Dinner is served with this incrediblly tasty Raw Pad Thai from the cookbook all-star Choosing Raw by Gena Hamshaw. Look, let’s get real for a second. For most of us, eating raw all the time is not only impossible but undesirable.  God bless if you eat raw all the time. I mean that with all my heart….

Vegan “Cool Ranch” Dip

March 11, 2014 by Cara

Vegan "Cool Ranch" Dip - Fork & Beans

    It’s the sophisticated chip dip for St. Paddy’s Day. I mean, it’s peppered with parsley and chives so that counts for green, right? This vegan “Cool Ranch” Dip won’t be pinched either because of it (note to those who don’t know the St. Patrick’s Day rule of thumb: If you aren’t wearing green on March 17, it…

Homemade Chocolate Teddy Grahams

Healthy Chocolate Teddy Grahams - Fork & Beans

  I’m always an advocate for balance. I have been through the wringer with a variety of diets (you can read about my weight loss story here) but the only thing that has actually kept my mind in a good place with food but has kept the weight off was removing this pendulum shift of going to extremes in…

Quinoa Taco Meat

April 26, 2013 by Cara

Despite the fact that I never cared for the taste of meat really, as a kid you could have found me at either McDonald’s or Taco Bell. Though I would order a hamburger or a taco, if I sensed one bite of what I called the taste of beef I would revolt it out of…

Cauliflower Spanish Rice

April 16, 2013 by Cara

I try my best in life to maintain a balanced mentality towards food by avoiding using descriptive words like “off-limits”, “guilty”, or even allowing myself to feel shame after eating. (Note that I said try: I am not perfect). Not that I was always this way. I used to be a slave to food. I would…

Vegan Ranch Dressing

January 25, 2013 by Cara

      So a funny thing happened to me at work yesterday: Jillian Michaels came in. With the location of my job, celebrity spotting tends to be a daily happening, which is kind of a fun perk about what I do.  I try not to ogle at them (well, there was one time when Bob Balaban from “Waiting…
