Halloween has changed a lot since I was a kid.

I’ve always loved yogurt so when I had to go dairy free a few years ago I really missed it (and ice-cream!). So when I discovered dairy free (and vegan) coconut yogurt I fell in love hard and fast. I love it with fresh berries or adding it as a topping to green smoothie bowls […]
