Updated March 2023! They weren’t the first frozen yogurt shop to feature dairy-free soft serve, but 16 Handles has definitely been the most innovative.

Most recently, they released Chocolate Banana! 16 Handles Dairy-Free Menu Guide with Vegan Options All of the following are also reportedly vegan, unless otherwise noted. At last count, 16 Handles had over 20 different…

I absolutely love the cute and creative food ideas that pop up for Halloween. But sometimes, they’re a bit intimidating. Luckily, this spooky eyes toast recipe is so easy, even kids (and less crafty adults, like me) can make it. It calls for basic, everyday ingredients, and takes minutes to make. You can serve these little toast pairs as a fun surprise for breakfast, pack them into lunch boxes for a little fright, or serve them at a Halloween party. They’re great for kids, but I also like this concept for work gatherings or casual Halloween get togethers. This recipe…

Sheet Pan Mushroom Fajitas for a Fast & Flavorful Plant-Based Meal Please note that some taco seasonings do contain milk, which is why I’ve linked to my homemade seasoning.

In honor of Mickey Mouse’s 90th anniversary and National Salad Month, the chefs at Dole created a Steamboat Willie Green Apple Waldorf Salad. I’ve adapted their recipe to be dairy-free, but it’s just as nutritious and delicious. Green Apple Waldorf Salad that’s Loaded with Healthy Ingredients This robust, meal-worthy salad is filled with fresh produce. The recipe is also naturally mayo-free and oil-free, but it did use Greek yogurt. I substituted part coconut cream and dairy-free yogurt to get the same rich consistency. The coconut cream also adds prized medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) to this dish. If your canned coconut milk…
I love Mexican nights – from both a cooking and eating perspective. They’re quick to throw together, and have great build-your-own potential. These dairy-free, gluten-free mushroom beef tacos, for example, are easy to prep, fast to cook, and everyone can top them however they wish. You can even use the mushroom-beef blend to build burritos or bowls instead of tacos. Mexican Mushroom Beef Tacos for Fast & Easy Allergy-Friendly Dinners Mushrooms cook seamlessly into beef dishes, so even picky eaters won’t notice them. But they add to the rich flavor of the dish while providing micronutrients like selenium, B vitamins,…

Sadly, the entire original Chobani Non-Dairy line, made with coconut, has been discontinued. But, they’ve moved forward with their dairy-free oat-based line. You can still get Chobani Oat Yogurt Cups and Chobani Oat Yogurt Blends. Despite releasing a new non-dairy line, Chobani is staunchly against using dairy terms like “milk” and “yogurt” on dairy-free products. This isn’t a debate that I would typically weigh in on, but Chobani has failed to address one major thing. If you don’t call it yogurt, what do you call it? They’ve simply slapped the name “Chobani Non-Dairy” on all of their dairy-free products, no…
There is no question that oat milk is the new darling of the dairy-free industry. Nearly every dairy-free “milk” maker has oats on their new product release list. But some dairy-free manufacturers are already reaching hearty new heights with oat milk creamer, yogurt, ice cream, and even chocolate. 5 New Dairy-free Foods that Take Oat Milk to the Next Level All of these amazing products are currently popping up in stores or for sale online, so you can find them now or in the very near future. So Delicious Oatmilk Frozen Dessert We can always count on So Delicious to…
We took a break from our news features for the recent holiday, and the stories have piled up! So this week we’re highlighting a bundle of new dairy-free treats that are bound to please. There’s more vegan cheese from Pizza Hut, non-dairy hot cocoa from Starbucks, dairy-free whip from Reddi-Wip, and healthy cookies from No Cow. D’s Naturals Rebrands to No Cow and Launches High Protein Cookies The dairy-free revolution is here, and one young entrepreneur is helping to lead the movement. In 2015, at the youthful age of 18, Daniel Katz contacted us to share his new line of…
This hearty beef stew is rich with flavor, but relatively light on fat and calories. How is that possible? First, the winter vegetables are roasted to promote caramelization and bring out their delicious flavors. Then a lean cut of beef is seared in just enough olive oil. Finally, red wine (or apple juice), stock, and herbs are simmered in the hearty beef stew to add body and aroma. And believe it or not, this hearty beef stew comes together rather quickly, making it an easy weeknight meal or a fulfilling weekend supper, particularly on chilly and snowy winter days. You can…
What sets these spicy Asian chicken wings apart from the rest is a flavorful tea marinade. Black teas from India, Sri Lanka and China, as well as the teas most common to Western Europe (such as English breakfast and Earl Grey) have a strong aromatic flavor that holds its own with heartier foods like meats, eggs, and dark chocolate. In keeping with the theme, serve these spicy Asian chicken wings with unsweetened black iced tea on warmer days, or a pot of your favorite hot black tea (Asian tea set is optional, but recommended) as the days shorten. This recipe is from Cynthia…

My Canadian friends claim that the grilling season never ends, even when they need to shovel a trail to the barbecue. So why not enjoy a grilled ham for the holidays?

Tips for the Perfect Grilled Ham: Enjoy these helpful grilling techniques straight from the National Pork Board: Grill over indirect heat. This allows the ham to heat evenly, without burning.

What an interesting divergence from your typically protein powder-enhanced bar. Epic Protein Bars are a unique cross between jerky and energy bars that get their protein exclusively from all-natural and grass-fed meat. All of the Epic Protein Bars are dairy-free, gluten-free, and almost Paleo (I don’t think our ancient ancestors were chowing on brown sugar-sweetened bacon), and they were a hit with me, since I follow a dairy-free, gluten-free and mostly grain-free diet. My wife liked that they use 100% grass-fed organic bison and beef and all-natural turkey (no antibiotics, fillers, etc.), and that the bars are free of nitrates or other funny…
