Fudgy Avocado Cookies. All the moist chocolaty goodness of a brownie, wrapped in a light, crisp cookie shell. Pure chocolate decadence, all plant-based, no gluten, no refined sugars, no avocado flavor!

Vegan Caesar Salad (Gluten-free, Plant-based)
Vegan Caesar Salad, a dish that boasts the flavors of traditional Caesar dressing while offering up additional nutrients and plant-based protein. Filling, delicious and dairy free. A fresh compliment to many meals! I have always loved Italian food, and one of my favorite dishes is Caesar salad.

Creamy Avocado Fudge (Gluten-Free, Vegan / Plant-Based, Refined Sugar-Free)
Creamy Avocado Fudge is nothing short of a pure, chocolate delight! Exquisite yet simple--only 15 minutes of your time. Healthy and indulgent!

And I proved it -- I put traditional fudge next to my Creamy Avocado Fudge and not a single taster could figure which was which! Don't get me wrong. I love avocados! I never had them as a child.

Fire-Roasted Three Chili Guacamole
California might be the greatest place on earth. I'm not talking about Hollywood here. I'm not talking about the all the gold it once harbored in its hills.
