Top 10 Healthy Holiday Gift Guide

Whether it’s your family, friends or co-workers, there’s always a never ending list of people to give gifts to around the holidays. I’d like to make this year easier for you by providing a list of vegan friendly gifts. This guide isn’t just for vegans, it’s for anyone who is a health conscious individual or looking to improve their overall wellbeing. Ditch the impersonal gift cards this year, and buy presents that you can feel good about giving away. Don’t get me wrong, the go-to gift cards are stress free but I promise my list will be even easier because you won’t have to leave your house. Cheers to the wonderful world of Amazon. Without further ado, let’s get to the items on Santa’s nice list!

 

1. Thug Kitchen Cookbook

Do you know a vegan with a sense of humor? Whether it’s for your seasoned vegan friend or someone wanting to enhance their meatless Mondays, look no further. This cookbook is humorous, fun and makes cooking plants a lot more entertaining. We received this as a gift when we first decided to go plant-based and  still use it all the time to make some awesome recipes. Check out their vegetable pad thai with dry-fried tofu!

2.  Stainless Steel Taco Holders

How many households do you know that abide by the “Taco Tuesday” rule? A few weeks ago, we went to a restaurant that served tofu tacos with these urban metal holders. I was blown away when these came out that I actually think I was more excited for the holders than the tacos! The holders are guaranteed to take taco Tuesday to a whole new level, not to mention they’re super useful.

3. Tofu Press

Know of a friend that loves tofu? If  you know a thing or two about tofu, it needs to be drained and pressed to release the liquid. Most likely that friend wastes 10-15 paper towels or stacks their 5 lb dumbbells on top of a plate to drain the darn thing. This contraption changed my life and it will change your friends too! All you do is slide the tofu in, tighten the hinges and you’re all set! Very easy to clean and store as well. Tofu game changer right here!

4. Coconut Bowls with Wooden Spoons

Let me just say that these reclaimed coconut shells are AWESOME. They are such a unique gift idea and they are currently on my Christmas list (hint hint). We had these at a cafe on the west coast and fell in love with them! And you can pair it was my next item…

5. Organic Acai Powder

A charming gift duo would be to pair the bowls above with acai powder. An acai bowl is a superfood that forms into a thick smoothie like consistency and can be topped with nut butters, granola, and sliced fruit. Most importantly, did I mention how fulfilling and delicious they are?

6. Fruit Infuser Water Bottle

We all have that one person in our lives that always has a water bottle in hand. How about upgrading their water bottle game with this infuser water bottle that can turn ordinary water into fresh fruit infused goodness.

7. Air Popcorn Maker

I use this Every. Single. Night. I always make a big healthy bowl of popcorn and the cleanup is easy because it’s oil free. Pair this with a bag of popcorn kernels and some fun seasonings like chili powder, cayenne pepper, and cinnamon sugar.

8. Vegan Canvas Lunch Bag

Know of a vegan who loves to fly their vegan flag? Well this is definitely a gift that can do that. This canvas lunch tote is 100% cotton and perfect for work or school. Fill it with plant-based snacks and you’ve got the perfect present.

 

 

9. Avocado Slicer, Avocado Socks, & Avocado Saver

Avocados are the new black…This 3-in-1 tool splits, pits and slices an avocado. Add an avocado saver and a pair of adorable socks to the mix and “AVO” Merry Christmas!

 

10. Pour Over Coffee Maker, Coffee Grinder

We purchased these for our vegan cross-country road trip and it was fantastic. Now that we’re back home, we still use this daily. Since it includes a permanent stainless steel mesh filter, paper filters aren’t needed. Great for the environmentally friendly people on your list! Just add a bag of organic coffee and dairy-free coffee creamer and you’ve got a home run!

 

Let us know what healthy items are on your Christmas wishlist this year!

For the past two years, we have made it our mission to renovate and preserve the property. We have created a virtual tour at burchfieldstudio.com where the public is able to see where he stood and painted over 120 works. This 33’x450’ property had a profound effect on his art and overall life but unfortunately it has gone unappreciated and unrecognized. We are also a few months away from transforming the famous art studio into a historical Airbnb, allowing passionate art enthusiasts to stay at the creative epicenter of where the majority of Burchfield’s journal entries and paintings were created.

Brittany & I wanted to share this special moment a Brittany & I wanted to share this special moment and celebrate with you all.. we hope it puts a smile on your face!

For over 37 years, I've lived under the ideal that nothing in life is black or white, but shades of grey filled with individualized nuances. Witnessing the strength of my wife growing and delivering this perfect baby has truly opened my eyes.

In my own life, there hasn't been a moment or memory that I would describe as such perfection but minutes right before this picture was taken was the exact moment. The purest thing I've ever experienced happened, hearing and then seeing my son for the first time.

Words really can't describe it, besides this exact memory will be one that I carry through to my final breath.

✍ Written for my baby boy to read someday, knowing he has already brought his mother and I so much joy.

Happy New Year from the Miller family 🍾

Just when we thought vegan turkeys couldn’t get Just when we thought vegan turkeys couldn’t get any better, we found this beast at Wegmans! What’s crazy is that when we went on an Alaskan cruise many years ago, we stopped into one of the most beautiful Canadian city’s- Victoria, British Columbia. While there, we came across a vegan deli, @theverygoodbutchers and were so blown away by their food! Fast forward years later and we can’t believe we found their brand at Wegmans and are so excited to have this for Thanksgiving!
