Quinoa, Kale, and Daikon Radish Gluten/soy/sugar-free meal
I'm on a mission to cook more for myself in order to save money, eat healthier, and reduce packaging. Now that I'm a gluten, soy, & sugar free diet I have to be more creative. Last night I put together a great dish with 3 elements - it was flavorful, satisfying, and extremely healthy.
Minted Quinoa with Pine Nuts, adapted from Whole Foods recipe:

Banana Mint Chip (Almost) Ice Cream
 Ice Cream&media=https%3A%2F%2Fecovegangal.com%2Fhttp:%2F%2F1.bp.blogspot.com%2F-fLCxTKAZB-Q%2FTjux09FS47I%2FAAAAAAAAEpY%2FMORydeickIk%2Fs400%2Fvegan+recipe-banana-mint-chocolate-ice+cream2.JPG){kind=link}
I should probably call this recipe Banana Mint Chip Chilly Cream, since it's not very icy. It doesnt really matter though - the consistency isn't what makes this dessert worth whipping up (literally), it's all about the flavors. Easy, quick, inexpensive, and guilt-free.

Healthy Mocha Frappucino - Caffeine & Sugar Free! (video)
&media=https%3A%2F%2Fecovegangal.com%2Fhttp:%2F%2F1.bp.blogspot.com%2F-VMktD8WXaXc%2FTjf2SMRszMI%2FAAAAAAAAEnk%2FsDq8RiAFQ4w%2Fs400%2Fhealthy-mocha-frappucino-ecovegangal.JPG){kind=link}
If you're wondering, "what is a frappucino", clearly you don't go to Starbucks, and I don't blame you. While their coffee and tea drinks are tasty, they're certainly not healthy - they're full of sugar and usually not organic. Plus, there are only a few vegan options (though they're working on that and have been adding more to the menu). I recently tried their soy frappucino (which by the way is a sugary, blended iced coffee drink) and while it was good, I felt super guilty knowing what was in it. But every now and then I crave that sugary coffee taste, so luckily there's a healthy option!
