Founded by childhood friends Whitney Tingle and Danielle DuBoise, Sakara Life is more than just a meal-delivery service serving up organic and plant-based eats. It’s a lifestyle, as the founders frequently note, one they augment with its own magazine, The S-Life Mag, which is filled with everything from beauty tips to delicious recipes — including Toast with Toppers seen here. Tingle and DuBoise recommend making the dish your own, topped with your favorite herbs, fruits, vegetables, jams… anything you like, basically. Below, the two share their recipe to cashew cheese — a healthier take on your usual cheese spread but just as delicious on toast — plus a few of their favorite topping combinations.
