Let's make this easy! Today we are looking at how to make plant-based milk at home. You don't need any fancy equipment. Just a blender (any blender will do). I'll show you how to make them with and/or without a nut milk bag. I'm sharing 4 different, easy plant-based milk recipes. All made slightly differently. [...]
In this breakfast recipe we will be using quinoa flakes to make the best vegan quinoa porridge that you'll ever taste. If you've not yet used them, then I promise you that they'll change your experience of quinoa breakfast forever! If you care about health, then I cannot recommend quinoa (both whole 'grain' and [...]
If you are looking for a healthy granola recipe, then you'll be pleased to know that this one is both delicious and very easy to make. This is the same basic granola recipe that I have been making for the last 20 years at home and working on retreats as a plant-based chef. It's [...]
Move over raspberries... blackberries deserve a little love too! I have been foraging wild blackberries over the last few weeks to make blackberry smoothies again. In fact, I might be guilty of being a little obsessed with blackberries at the moment. If you need a new obsession then it might as well be something super [...]

No milk is needed! But would you know it, original oat porridge is actually a bit of an ancient thing? [...]
If you fancy a healthy, creamy smoothie then it must be said… cashew nuts work wonders. They are excellent for those on a plant based diet or those looking for healthier options; creaming up really well, satisfying the desire for something rich and delicious. They are also packed with vitamins, minerals, healthy fats, protein and loads of health-promoting phyto-chemicals that help protect us from diseases and cancers.
Finally! I have been meaning to share a homemade granola recipe for quite some time. People love granola at breakfast as a sprinkle on top of fruit, yoghurt, chia pudding, smoothie bowls, or simply as a generous bowl with plant-based milk. Granola has a little more je ne sais quoi than regular muesli because [...]
