Roshi's Sun Glazed Fruit Salad

Well after finishing the last of my final exams at UCSD today, I felt like the sun was shining much much brighter. I got back home and decided to make myself a special treat with the little food I still had left in the fridge after studying for 5 days straight.

If you though my other recipes were simple, this is just going to blow you away.

As always, I hope you love it as much as I do.

Vanilla Soft Serve

A smooth, creamy, naturally sweetened summertime treat that will make you forget all about Ben and Jerry’s!

What’s not to love?!

The raisins give the ice cream a rich, buttery flavor. The chia seeds provide amazing nutrition and leave you feeling full and satisfied.

Berry Delicious Torte

This is the easiest and prettiest raw dessert I’ve made so far, and I love it!

This would be a fun one for kids to make and eat!

I sprinkled some crushed walnuts and added a mint leaf, but the possibilities are endless! Enjoy!

Roshi's Carrot Crazy Banana Halva

It's getting real close to my departure date, and my excitement has just been increasing exponentially.

I just got a guide of all the places to travel to in India, and now I really can’t wait to get there. All the reading I’ve been doing has also gotten me really craving some Indian food.

One of my favorite Indian desserts used to be my grandma’s halva.

Halva is a very sweet, very buttery dish, that’s probably just about as bad for your body as it is delicious. But with a little creativity and a little ingenuity, I created up something equally scrumptious.

Cool Sesame Ginger Soup

I’d been experimenting with making a green smoothie “smooth” without the aid of a VitaMix. Wasn’t working.

So I added a touch of avocado and Voila! A smooth smoothie.

By adding more avocado, it became a soup, and here was the result--a cool sesame ginger combination!

Veggie Chili

A chunky chili with veggies and no beans.

Very tomatoey with a nice crunch from the peppers.

Smooth and creamy from the avocados.

Sizzling Walnut Patties

Jalapeno adds red-hot flavor to this hefty burger.

Roshi's Springtime Wrap

I recently went out to dinner to a Vietnamese restaurant (don’t worry, I brought food with me) with a few of my roommates, and watched as they devoured some delicious looking spring rolls.

Spring rolls used to be one of my favorite Vietnamese dishes, and they served as the inspiration for this dish.

It took a bit of experimenting on my part (and about a dozen or so dirty dishes), but I think I really came up with something special this time.

My Vietnamese roommate said they were as good as the spring rolls his mom makes, so I guess that says something.

Apple Flax Bread

A not-too-sweet, not-too-heavy bread perfect for breakfast, or even with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for dessert!

You can decorate this bread with things like apple slices, raisins, whole flax seeds, cinnamon, drizzled maple syrup, or honey. Have fun with it!

Garlic Dip

This garlic dip is delicious.
