Hazelnuts. Plant-based milk. Yes please! The benefit of making your own vegan milk at home is that you get to decide exactly what goes in it. You can make sure that there are no unnecessary additives in it or refined sugars (as you so often find in pre-made packaged plant milk). Making your own saves [...]
Easy, gluten-free, vegan bread is a very common request that I get asked for. Worry not - I am on the case! It seems that is usually difficult to find decent, pre-bought gluten-free bread with good, wholesome ingredients in. So... let's make our own! Keeping it simple, today I decided to share a popular recipe from [...]
Oh yes! If you are lucky enough to have strawberries growing in your garden, then this will really excite you. If you don't, then pop down to your local shop and buy a punnet or two. You are in for a real treat today. This is my vegan no-bake strawberry cheesecake recipe page. It's gluten-free, [...]
I am taking a moment from my wonderful busyness at the moment to share a plateful of gluten-free chocolate cake deliciousness with you all. I've been planning menus for my work as a retreat chef. Today I am sharing my new recipe. This actually happened recently after a friend asked me what they could substitute the [...]
Just dancing in my kitchen here, weaving, twisting, and twirling, and seeing which recipes want to come into being this week. Delighted to say that sweet potato hemp burgers have happened. This was also requested by readers on my facebook page :) so here we go! Left to my own devices, I tend to gravitate [...]
Today I am going for simplicity. Sometimes you might just want to make a delicious sweet treat without having to dress it up (we are saving fancier decorative stuff for another occasion). Enter.... my simple, gluten-free, vegan chocolate cupcakes. We are talking light - incredibly light - sort of melt-in-the-mouth deliciousness here, naturally sweetened [...]
Hummus is fabulous stuff. Sweet potato hummus is a fabulous artisan dip. You can add it to a salad, have it in a sandwich, eat it in a wrap, enjoy a hearty dollop on a baked potato, dunk veggies or potato wedges in it or simply pop it in some pita bread with falafels. Traditionally [...]
My whole house has delightful vibrant, spicy aroma right now. I've just made another batch of my favourite homemade Chinese 5 Spice mix and I thought it was a good time to share the recipe with you here. Chinese five spice is traditionally used in Chinese and Taiwanese cooking - often to flavour meat and [...]
Crunch! A delectably delicious crunch! That's what I love about making this type of gluten-free 5 spice biscuit. This version has a spicy kick with my homemade Chinese Five Spice blend being the star of the show. You take a bite (and after the delight of that crunch) you go on a bit of an [...]
Finally! I can't believe I haven't shared this one on my blog so far, especially since it is one of the most common types of salads that I make - a constant crowd-pleaser and a 'must make' when creating a healthy buffet for groups of people. I have been making this (in its various guises) [...]
