Superfood Dark Chocolate Bark (It's Vegan!) Chocolate = healthy? Could this be true? With the right ingredients, it actually can! I love chocolate, but I try to stay away from sugar, so finding a healthy, refined sugar-free alternative was a must. This chocolate bark has everything you dream about chocolate and more – it’s crunchy and loaded with antioxidants and minerals. Plus it’s refined sugar-free and vegan! Making your own chocolate is easy, and you can play with the ingredients anyway you like. I love adding a crunch to my chocolate barks, and this time I wanted something different, so I went for raw buckwheat, because it’s gluten-free and can help lower cholesterol, a big problem when you’re a sweets enthusiast. Because it is made with coconut oil, this chocolate melts very easily so it’s better to keep it in the refrigerator until serving.

When it comes to quick healthy dinners at my house, I stick to what I know best: Green salads and fresh in-season farmers’ market vegetables.

Imagine taco night meets pizza night. Now re-imagine them with sprouted grain tortillas, fresh homemade salsa, herbs, avocado, and kale. Sound too earthy for you? Yep, layer these ingredients before throwing in the rest of the leafy greens and veggies!
