Switching things up and shaking it back to one of my favorite types of food——SOUP! If you’ve been following me for some time then you know that I LIVE for a good bowl of soup. It’s the Jamaican thing to do! 🇯🇲🤣We eat it year-round, whether it’s a hot or cold day—-who cares? That’s one of the ways to get all of those nutrients in! This soup is all flavor, nice creamy/watery consistency, and is made in just ONE Pot!👆🏾Tap the link in bio @orchidsnsweettea_ for recipe or GOOGLE ‘Orchids + Sweet Tea Fall Detox Sweet Potato Veggie Soup’

It’s been a HARDWORKING weekend for me. I spent all weekend decluttering, re-organizing, and adding new things to my blogging collection and creating a learning space for my son’s homeschooling. 🖍📚 Of course, I had content to shoot for a few partnerships in the midst of it all and it was fun! But now that we’re crossing over into Q4 later this week, it’s time to begin planning out what this Holiday season will look like for me content wise. Any requests on what recipes you want to see on Orchids + Sweet Tea? Let me know in the comments. 👇🏾 In the meantime, I’m so excited to share the recipe for this Chocolate Ice Cream Chai Latte Float! 😬 Traditionally, floats are made with scoops of ice cream and soda—-BUT that just sounds crazy to me, so here’s my little remix! 🤣 And it’s SO delish! SWIPE LEFT TO SEE HOW IT’S FULLY MADE!👆🏾Tap the link in bio @orchidsnsweettea_ for recipe or GOOGLE ‘Orchids + Sweet Tea Recipes’

Vegan + Gluten-Free Apple Plum Crisp. The best crisp I’ve had in awhile besides my recently made Homemade Gluten-Free Apple Crisp. 🍎🍏Yup, this crisp is truly legit, ya’ll. I just the apple spice flavor throughout, however, the slight tartness from the plums really do pull together the sweetness of everything well. 😞 Ugh, so sad to see #AppleWeek come to an end, however, that doesn’t mean that you won’t see any apple recipes pop up here and there.

Ending off Apple Week with this Vegan Apple Cinnam

Ending off Apple Week with this Vegan Apple Cinnamon Crumble Bread. It’s officially Fall and I’ve been feeling so in the mood for everything Fall + Holiday. Now that I see that Target has their Holiday Shop live on their site, I’ve been obsessively looking at all Christmas decor for both blog props and my home. 🤣🤣 I know. So early BUT I can’t help it.
——————
To say the least, I love whipping together banana breads, but every once in a while, I enjoy creating other breads that highlight other flavors. This Apple bread was certainly something that I couldn’t wait to attempt and boy, must I say—-this bread is DELICIOUS.👆🏾Tap the link in bio @orchidsnsweettea_ for recipe or GOOGLE ‘Orchids + Sweet Tea Vegan Apple Cinnamon Crumble Bread’

Can I be honest for a sec? I rolled out Apple Week thinking that I’d kill it like I did during Pumpkin Week (which you guys LOVED). But then, the week became crazy and things got busy and here we are——re-sharing a previous recipe because ya girl didn’t get time to put up a new one. 🙈 Don’t worry—-I got a NEW Apple recipe going live later today! In the meantime, I had to repost these Crostini’s because they are SO GOOD, trust me!👆🏾Tap the link in bio @orchidsnsweettea_ for recipe or GOOGLE ‘Orchids + Sweet Tea Fall Harvest Apple Bacon Crostini’

Now that we’re officially in Fall, I’m thinkin

Now that we’re officially in Fall, I’m thinking about Thanksgiving which is super close and these crostinis make for the perfect little bites for Thanksgiving or any gathering for that matter. 🍂 They are guaranteed to be a hit! I used candied bacon because of course, it’s the Southern girl in me and candied bacon is a serious thing, ya’ll! I can’t eat bacon any other way now. Plus, the sweet + smokiness from the bacon goes really well with the spices from the apples. Trust me! Usually, most crostini recipes are topped with a cheese spread—like goat cheese, cream cheese, burrata cheese, etc. However, I chose to make my go-to vegan cream cheese. It’s literally a quick blend in the blender and wallah! These little bites are made in no time and will certainly be eaten just as fast!👆🏾Tap the link in bio @orchidsnsweettea_ for recipe or GOOGLE ‘Orchids + Sweet Tea Fall Harvest Apple Bacon Crostini’
