Drop Dead Recipes – Buddha Bowls
I’m sure you’ve all seen “Buddha Bowls” floating around Instagram and Facebook. They are a super trendy food right now, but it’s great because they are so delicious and super healthy. I’ve created this Winter Buddha Bowl full of roasted vegetables, quinoa, and a freakin’ insane miso gravy. Obviously you can substitute whatever veggies you like the most, and if you aren’t into quinoa, white or brown rice would work great, too. Winter Buddha Bowl 200g yam, sliced 1/2″ thick 200g beet, sliced 1/2″ thick 125g carrot, sliced 1/2″ thick 125g broccoli, chopped into florets 1/2 tsp sea salt 1 tbsp coconut oil 1 tbsp sesame seeds Preheat oven to…

Drop Dead Recipes- Caramel Almond Popcorn
It’s that time of year! Halloween is just around the corner and those mini-chocolate bars get so freakin’ tempting, don’t they? Once you start you just can’t stop, so don’t even go near those suckers, and instead make a REFINED SUGAR and CORN SYRUP FREE Caramel Almond Popcorn to munch on instead! I am absolutely pumped about the flavour of this popcorn. To be honest, I don’t even like caramel popcorn, but everyone is going crazy about this one. It’s sweetened with coconut sugar and maple syrup, and has great healthy fats from coconut oil and almond butter. Forget the candy thermometer and a complicated caramel process- this comes together…

Drop Dead Recipes- Raw Cashew Cheesecakes
I just wanted to take the time to post a little update and let you know where I’ve been at over the Summer, as my Koko’s Kitchen posts have definitely slowed down. Lots of changes have been happening, and I really want to get my recipes back up regularly again! First of all, I’ve been busy with Koko’s Kitchen the business. I’ve been selling juice at Back Roads Family Farm Market all summer, and I attended markets at the Tsawwassen Saturday Market as well. I’ve been filling orders for 3-day reboots (juice cleanses) and keeping busy with a full-time job as well. It’s been a bit overwhelming this summer to…

Drop Dead Recipes- Chickpea Omelette
This month’s edition of #DropDeadRecipes is all about breakfast! I’m not a huge breakfast person, mostly opting for a smoothie and a coffee, sipped on the go as I head to work in the morning. Sometimes, however, I get a craving for something a little more special, and something to be enjoyed say, sitting down at a table- hah! This recipe is my take on an omelette…but there are no eggs involved. I guess technically this is more of a crepe or savoury pancake, but it’s prepared in the pan as you would an omelette. Call it what you wanna call it- it will taste the same either way! There…

Drop Dead Recipes- Jalapeno Poppers
This month’s edition of Drop Dead Recipes is a recipe for a super fun appetizer- jalapeno poppers! Jalapeno poppers always remind me of the Brill family trip to Mexico in 2010. The whole family had a pretty interesting day, but my mom found my brother on the beach at 3am, smoking a cigar and eating jalapeno poppers surrounded by a bunch of racoon-like animals. Ah, memories…jalapeno poppers are Jordan’s favourite but he likes his as cheesy as possible and maybe even bacon wrapped. I think he could still enjoy my plant-based version, though!! I’ve made a cashew ‘cream cheese’ filled with smoky, spicy flavour to stuff the jalapenos with. Then,…

Drop Dead Recipes- Veggie & Bean Tacos
For this month’s Drop Dead Recipes, I decided on veggie tacos with lots of fresh flavours from a variety of vegetables, beans, and broccoli slaw. To take this recipe to the next level, be sure to make a batch of my plant-based chipotle mayo! It’s the perfect sauce for these tacos. Check out the recipe on the Drop Dead Clothing blog.

Drop Dead Recipes- Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
For this month’s #dropdeadrecipes series I have made some delicious plant-based mint chocolate chip ice cream. I was so stoked at how the flavour of this turned out. Considering it uses a coconut milk base, along with spirulina to tint it green, it is quite different from my old favourite mint chocolate chip ice cream. Those who have tried this can agree that it tastes just like the “real” thing. I think it tastes even better- no chemicals, preservatives, or dairy-induced stomach ache! The thing about this ice cream is that it is best served as a soft-serve, or gelato texture. I like to freeze it for only 1-2 hours,…
