If you haven’t gathered it already, I love coming up with creative smoothies recipes with flavor combos as unique as possible. However, I also like to use healthy ingredients I have on hand while putting a fun spin on the recipes. This high-in-protein shake happens to feature Mushroom Matrix, as another part of my recipe series this week that includes their Fit Matrix. Check out my original review of their product if you’re curious about the benefits of mushroom powders. Otherwise, keep reading on for this fun and fabulous recipe! Continue reading

Tahini Espresso Protein Shake

IMG_1056
As promised, here is the first of a few recipes I will be featuring using Mushroom Matrix’s Fit. This protein shake happens to include a few of my favorite brands and flavors all together in one delicious (and totally healthy) post-workout shake. Who would’ve thought that things like tahini, coffee, pears, bananas and mushroom powder would go together? I wouldn’t have at first but trust me, this was one extremely happy accident that I discovered. I even boosted it with some Growing Naturals Vanilla Blast rice protein, so this entire smoothie has almost 30g of plant-based protein. The added Mushroom Matrix makes it complete with an added boost of immunity, while helping fight fatigue and increase your fitness performance. You don’t even have to drink this shake after a workout, but I can promise that it’s a super satisfying treat to have after your morning gym session or run outside. Let’s face it, we all want to get in more exercise now that the New Year is upon us. This decadent shake makes it all worth it! Continue reading

NibMor Dark Chocolate

Nibmor Chocolate Review on Anotherhungryvegan.comHappy New Year! Since the holidays have officially come to an end, I’m thinking of ways to ease into the New Year and incorporate my favorite treats in a less-indulgent way. Cookies, pies, candy, and cakes are fun, but they aren’t always the best way to kick off your New Year’s Resolutions. I personally love a good piece of high-quality dark chocolate as a guilt-free dessert, which is where this review comes in. Nibmor was so generous to send me a few of their best-selling chocolate bars. I was so excited to try them that I ended up purchasing a few of their other bars to make this a complete review!

Even though Christmas and Chanukah have passed, that doesn’t mean the holiday cheer has to go away. Here, I have three different cookie recipes that are sure to be a hit at your New Year’s Eve party. Or, just cook these for your household and stick them in the cookie jar. Regardless, they’ll be gone before you know it! Continue reading

White & Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies

White & Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies | Anotherhungryvegan.com
This is one of those fun types of cookies that I see all the time online or pre-packaged in stores. Unfortunately they are rarely ever vegan, which is a huge bummer. However, one thing that I have learned about being vegan is that if you can’t find a vegan version, you can always make one yourself. These cookies taste way better than any store-bought cookie that I have ever tried, and they have way fewer ingredients as an added bonus! Continue reading

Vegan White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies

White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies | Anotherhungryvegan.com
First for the recipe roundup, I wanted to start with the classic White Chocolate Macadamia Nut cookie. When was the last time you honestly had one of these? I know mine was definitely a few years ago, and it definitely wasn’t vegan. This is one of those cookies that I literally never find a vegan version of in stores, and it’s a shame because they’re so good! If you happen to dislike macadamia nuts though, you can definitely sub-in peanuts, almonds, or just leave the nuts out. There’s nothing wrong with a white chocolate chip cookie all on its own. Continue reading

Chai Spice Snickerdoodles

Chai Spice Snickerdoodles | Anotherhungryvegan.comLastly, as part of my “end of the year” cookie roundup, these Chai Spice Snickerdoodles! I literally can’t remember when I last had a snickerdoodle. I mean, it probably wasn’t that long ago but that doesn’t mean I was looking forward to trying these cookies any less. I know a ton of people have tried this exact cookie recipe before and they loved it, but probably not as much as me. I’m not kidding, my mom says it’s one of her new favorite cookies that I’ve made. Continue reading

Butterscotch Chip Cookies

Vegan Butterscotch Chip CookiesWhen was the last time you had butterscotch cookies? What about vegan ones? Regardless of your answer, these vegan butterscotch chip cookies are so delightful that you’ll want to make them just in time for Christmas! These would make a fantastic dessert to bring to your holiday cookie swap, but you can always leave them out for Santa with a glass of almond milk. Or, if Christmas flies by and you still haven’t made these, they are a great treat for any New Years celebration as well.
