Beach yoga is one of my favourite summer activities. Hearing the waves crash against the shore, looking up to see birds leisurely soaring by as you practice; nothing beats yoga by the sea.
And after a muscle wakening, spine limbering yoga class, sometimes a treat is called for. But not just any treat. A wholesome but sweet vegan treat.
This one has fresh Okanagan peaches, vanilla Coconut Bliss coconut milk nice cream and pure dark chocolate syrup, all resting on:
Black Bean Brownies
