Orange Blossom Rice Pudding
In the mood for naturally gluten free dessert with a hint of springtime flavor?
Make this Orange Blossom Rice pudding!
Growing up one of my favorite snacks was rice pudding. Something about it being light and creamy with thick, chewy grains was so satisfying to my 8 year old self.
Today, it’s a snack I rarely indulge in. Yet what is great about this nostalgic treat is that it’s not too light and not too heavy. During the spring months, that’s exactly the kind of dessert you want to enjoy!
Chocolate for EVERYBODY
With rich coconut flakes, dark chocolate cake and crunchy pecans, what’s more decadent than a German Chocolate cake?
This month’s vegan gluten-free recipe is a little reminder that sometimes it’s OK to indulge. That’s just part of life, there are times to indulge and there are times not to indulge.
The key is responsible indulgence. Balance.

The Next Step
The Yoga District 200 and 500 hour teacher training certification programs, registered by the Yoga Alliance are unique in their emphasis on diversity of teaching styles studied, personal attention, and trauma sensitive yoga. It's no coincidence that Yoga District is regularly voted the leading studio in the nation's capital, and that most of its classes are taught by graduates of its training program. As a full time yoga school, small group trainings are led up to eight times a year by a dedicated faculty including Jasmine Chehrazi, contributor to the Harvard Karma Yoga Project teacher training, teacher training faculty at George Washington University, Yoga Alliance Standards Committee Advisory Board Member, Yoga Activist Founder, and Yoga Service Council Advisory Board Member. So take your practice and community involvement to the next level by joining a training. There's a reason why our graduates call the training "transformative."
