  1. In a medium-sized pot, add 3 cups water, cinnamon sticks, peeled ginger, ground all spice, ground cloves, and ground nutmeg. Bring to a boil… takes about 5-6 mins.
  2. Place rice in a fine mesh strainer and rinse under water for 30 seconds.
  3. Add rice to the pot and bring to a simmer (will take about 1 min) then cover. Lower heat to lowest possible and cook for 15-22 minutes, or until rice is cooked. A little bit of water will be left over and that’s fine… as long as the rice is cooked.
  4. Heat up 3 cups of non-dairy milk in the microwave or over stove top. Add the vegan condensed milk to the hot non-dairy milk as well as the pumpkin purée. Mix and then add it to the cooked rice pot. Cook on medium heat for 20 minutes, mixing throughout. (Should be on lowest heat.) You can leave in cinnamon stick until the end of cooking.
  5. Taste and adjust sweetness to your liking! I felt that the vegan condensed milk made it perfectly sweet but feel free to add additional sugar or pure maple syrup to your liking.
  6. Enjoy hot or cold! Store in tupperware and keep in fridge for up to 5-6 days!

Pumpkin Spiced Arroz con Leche

SEE recipe
  1. Cover your cashews with hot boiling water! Set aside to soak for 10 minutes or more.
  2. Strain cashews, place in blender with onion, garlic, filtered water, juice of a lime or lemon, pinch of salt & pepper, and 2-4 chipotle peppers from a can. These peppers can be really spicy so start slow, adding 1-2. Taste and add more if you want it spicier! Blend until smooth.
  3. In the same pan you cooked the onion and garlic, add the riced cauliflower and broccoli package and cook for 5 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper then pour in about 1/2 cup of sauce. Mix and cook for an additional 3 minutes.
  4. On a pan, heat your corn tortillas on both sides and then start assembling your taquitos. Adding 2-3 spoonfuls of your filling and rolling them up. You can pan fry or air fry them. If you choose to air fry brush or spray a little oil on them then place in oven at 400 for 6-7 minutes or until golden and crisp!
  5. Once out of the oven, smother in your creamy chipotle salsa, too with avocado and enjoy!
  • 1 Blender
  • 1 Medium Sized Pan
  • 1 Package of Riced Cauliflower and Broccoli (I used Del Monte)
  • 8-10 Corn Tortillas

  1. Cover the cashews with hot water and let soak for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Roast poblanos, garlic, onion and jalapeños in the oven or air fryer at 450 for 7-9 minutes or on the stove. I added 1-2 tbsp oil to the pan but you can do it without oil too. Roast until charred on all sides, rotating the ingredients as they cook. Should take 6-8 minutes. *You will need to remove the garlic after 1-2 minutes! Don’t let it burn!*
  3. Once the poblanos and jalapeños are done roasting, place in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let them sit and sweat for 5 minutes, then with your fingers, peel off the outer charred layer.
  4. Drain the cashews and place in the blender with poblanos, jalapeños, onion, garlic, a good pinch of salt, ground pepper, cilantro (with the stems), nutritional yeast, water and blend until smooth. Should be a thicker dressing. You can add a touch more of water if needed/desired.
  5. Pour into a container and place in the fridge to chill. Meanwhile, thinly chop your cabbage. Once the dressing has chilled for 20 minutes, add the cabbage to a bowl then pour over desired amount of dressing. Toss then squeeze over the juice of a lime, drizzle a couple tbsp of extra virgin olive oil and top off with a pinch of salt and freshly cracked pepper!
  6. Enjoy right away or chill in fridge for an hour! Left overs can be kept fresh in fridge, sealed tight for up to 5 days.

I love combining my family recipes and the different variations of recipes I try during my time in Mexico ❣️This ceviche is so light and refreshing!

Ceviche was said to have first started in Peru but you can find it all across South America, Central America, and Mexico. That’s the beauty of ceviche––every country, region, and even family has its own variation of it. Some are soupier, some are plated different, some are spicy.

Ceviche is usually made up of raw fish, marinated in lime juice, and served with anything from onions to sweet potatoes to chili peppers. Depending on the country, everyone uses a different base too, whether that’s shrimp, squid, tuna, sea bass, or in this case, a vegan base like hominy, hearts of palm, cucumber, and jicama!

I got to spend some time in Merida, Mexico, and this recipe was inspired by an incredible ceviche I had during my time there, as well as some family ceviche recipes. It combines elements from both to create a delicious, light, refreshing, and vegan ceviche with a coconut milk base. And in true Mexican ceviche fashion, it’s served with tortilla chips on the side because everything is better with tortilla chips.

Ceviche is typically eaten around lunchtime, but you can eat it whenever and store it in the fridge for up to 5 days, which is perfect for those days when you’re craving something refreshing. Especially during the summertime!

  4. Use tongs to remove them to the paper towel-lined plate then directly put them into the cinnamon sugar, making sure they get nice and coated. Repeat with any remaining dough.

Jalapeño Vegan Tofu Cream Cheese

SEE recipe
  1. Set air fryer to broil setting to preheat. Cut the grapefruit in half. Then carefully cut the sections, careful not to cut through the peel.
  2. Thinly slice 3 pieces of vegan butter. Place on top of grapefruit and sprinkle sugar, cinnamon, tiny pinch of salt on top as well. Place on the baking tray lined with parchment paper and place in preheated air fryer. Broil for 5-6 minutes. It will be ready when the top is caramelized and parts are slightly charred.
  3. Enjoy straight away as is or with a scoop of vanilla vegan ice cream would be delicious too!
  • 1 Air Fryer OR Conventional Oven
  • 1 Grapefuit
  • 1 Tbsp Brown Sugar
  • 1 Tbsp Vegan Butter
  • 1/4 Tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • Tiny Pinch of Salt

Grapefruits are tart, sour and have a slight floral sweet flavor. Adding a sweet flavor from the brown sugar and a nice depth of flavor from the cinnamon is the most perfect, subtle touch. The key in this is to BROIL , it crystalizes the top, giving a delicious texture throughout.
