E I G H T Y // T W E N T Y is the non-diet, diet that’s exactly what you need this year. It’s actually not a diet at all, but rather a lifestyle, and the philosophy behind it is very simple. Eat clean eighty percent of the time and indulge the other twenty. With that being said, you can still make healthier choices when it comes to things like dessert. Below are two tastebud approved, guilt-less desserts that I’ve made recently. Both are gluten-free AND vegan.
