Plant Based Bride

We all know the slogans... "Got milk?" We see ads every day picturing happy cows being milked by hand and grazing in lush fields. We've been told we need dairy to build strong bones for so long it has crystallized as fact in our society. But what if the dairy industry is lying to us? The recent influx of ads in Toronto for dairy products as a defence against osteoporosis got me riled up and I haven't yet calmed down. (I wrote a this page in response.) The dairy industry is a business. They are selling a product. They do their best to convince us their product is indispensable for good health because that's what drives profit, not because it's true. Let me tell you the truth about the dairy industry, behind all of the marketing spins and selective wording.

Vegan Mousse Recipe

I'm not a big dessert person. Don't get me wrong, a well placed truffle is great. But I'm not going to be baking constantly or buying sweets every day. It's just not my thing! That being said, when a special date came up for me and my fiancé I decided I wanted to make him a sweet vegan treat as a surprise! I didn't want to spend a huge amount of time making it, but I wanted it to be delicious. I had been doing research for my 10 Yummy Vegan Cake Recipes post and was getting inspired. I tweaked a couple different recipes based on what I had available and my preferences, and what came out was SO GOOD. Ridiculously good. Not just the taste, but the textured was so divinely mousse-y. Lets just say, I was pretty happy. And since I know you're all waiting with baited breath, I'll tell you. Yes, my fiancé loved it. Jason requested that I make it "All the time!", if that's any indication!
