Let's talk moringa smoothie! I am convinced that our brains are hardwired to recognize that green is good for healthy human beings. Green leafy stuff is usually loaded with nutrients such as lutein, vitamin K, alpha-tocopherol, beta-carotene and lots of things to do with brain function and excellent health. So when I see a green [...]
This Vegan Hot Chocolate with Cashews and Hemp Seeds is currently my favourite drink... by a long stretch! It's made differently to any of the hot chocolate recipes I've ever shared before and - dare I say, is the best drinking chocolate I have ever had the pleasure of tasting. Last year I had a [...]
Today is a perfect day to share my healing ginger smoothie recipe. So, I fell down some steps nearly a week ago. It was a sort of pitch black moment of distraction. I completely missed the last step, doubling over on my foot, giving it a very nasty twist. Oh my goodness, did I ever [...]
Let's look at this delicious vegan matcha drink. Did you know that matcha can be an excellent calming, anti-anxiety drink? I found this out a couple of years ago when going through a rough patch (we’ll say a ‘rough patch’ shall we and leave it at that lol!). I was researching various anti-anxiety herbs [...]
Big fan of walnuts and walnut milk here! Not surprising really since they are one of the healthiest nuts out there. If you are super lucky you can forage your own walnuts, making them a truly sustainable, local crop for those living in temperate climate zones. (Big shout out for harvesting our own where possible [...]
My favourite green kale smoothie is happening in the Kind Earth Kitchen this week and I am thrilled to share my latest medley of super healthy deliciousness! Nothing like a superfood smoothie to get me excited. Currently nomadic, this month am finding myself staying in an absolutely gorgeous yurt overlooking the vast, green forests of [...]
In today's recipe, we are going to make a maca chai latte. Chai is the Hindi name for tea, which apparently, was derived from the Chinese name 'cha'. It actually contains a blend of different spices, varying vastly through different regions and cultures. Chai is often brewed with milk and a sweetener. In more modern [...]
I must warn you, once you start to make your own plant-based milk it really is hard to go back to the carton stuff. It's so much more vibrant and alive, you can feel the difference. Homemade nut milk contains very simple ingredients and the process is remarkably fast, taking only a few minutes to [...]
This morning I was having a wonderful trip down memory lane - a fond remembering of the first time I ever made a cup of vegan hot chocolate. Oh my goodness, it was like heaven in a mug! I was somewhere in the jungle with a good vegan friend, some 16 years ago. He had [...]
Sometimes you just need a hot milky drink. This one is designed as a way to enjoy a drink WHILST getting a fabulous infusion of superfood 'spice' benefits. I am using homemade almond milk, but do use whatever plant-milk you have available. Different kinds of milk will yield slightly different results, so experiment and see what [...]
