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 [...]
Breakfast this morning! I fancied something fruity and vibrant to start the day and decided to make a classic 'blueberry hempster smoothie'. It's simple and involves ripe banana, blueberries, shelled hemp seeds (also known as hemp seed hearts) and cashews. This blueberry hempster smoothie is one of the most nutrient-dense recipes in my healthy [...]
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) [...]
I was at a friends house recently where she treated me to the most divine hot chocolate, made with homemade cashew date milk. Oh my word! Heavenly. I believe that she'd intended to make it with almonds, although since she hadn't had time to soak them in advance, she opted for cashews instead. It reminded [...]
