When it comes to sharing vegan food, nothing brings me more joy than seeing the look of delight on my friends' faces when they take that first bite, especially when they get to enjoy my hemp beet veggie burgers. Not only do I want people to be transformed on a magical journey of deliciousness when [...]

This year I'll be having a quite Christmas Dinner at home with my son. We'll be enjoying a table filled with totally plant-based, gluten-free, healthy deliciousness. Consciously preparing cuisine, with love, means that we can truly celebrate in style and know that we are honouring other sentient life in the process... Of course it has [...]
This recipe is very easy. It's a basic medley of squash and black beans cooked in one pot with a chorus of warming spices, coconut and tomato.

Of course, here in the Kind Earth Kitchen, I don't do anything 'traditionally' hahaha, instead, creating my cuisine with dairy-free, egg-free and wheat-free ingredients. I am doing a crustless vegan quiche! [...]
Falafel originated in the Middle East and has since become a popular alternative to meat.

The recipe I am sharing here today, totally excites my taste buds with a tantalizing medley of warming spices. This ‘Thai Coconut Curry’, uses kaffir lime for a tangy kick; cardamom pods for an exquisite burst of sweet, spicy excitement; coriander, turmeric and lots of other delicious things. I use creamed coconut to give it a full tropical coconut experience (see below for more about the coconut that works best for this recipe).
