Vegan friendly chocolate. There seems to be a misconception that when you turn vegan you suddenly stop eating chocolate; this is not the case. There are many brands of chocolate offering dairy free options which don’t have to come from the “free from” section. If you like dark chocolate then you will find the transition easy. If you don’t enjoy dark chocolate it could take a while to make the transition however over time you will get used to the taste and start…
Raw vegan carrot cake cupcakes? Yaaaaaay !! So, I have made a couple of batches of these cupcakes to try and get the consistency more cakey, however I have come to the realisation that they’ll never quite be a cupcake consistency as they are raw of course, and carrot pulp is wet, therefore I’m working towards something that can not be achieved whilst keeping the taste on point. I’m sharing this recipe with you because for me they taste awesome,…

If you are transitioning into Veganism, hello and welcome 🙂 I am here to try and help make the transition an easy one for you because it can be difficult at first and it doesn’t need to be! Before turning fully vegan I had researched it on and off for about three years and ate a lot of vegan recipes so when I tried Veganuary I thought it would be a doddle; how wrong was I? I failed miserably (literally)…
You can’t get much better than a delicious bowl of Nicecream for breakfast and today I’m sharing with you this simple and in season delicious delight; Persimmon and Kiwi Nicecream !! For anyone who doesn’t know, Nicecream is simply frozen bananas blitzed into an Icecream consistency; it’s simply amazing.

Don’t have much time but want something full of flavour, hearty and delicious? You need this Butter Bean and Kale Stew in your life!! I make this amount and save half for the next day but if you’re super hungry then eat it all. There’s no one stopping you, Lol! It’s low fat, high protein and faultless.

A winter warmer that’s delicious, healthy and perfect for Autumn time: Chocolate and Apple Oats 😊 I use a lot of banana in my foods because they’re filling, sweet and full of nutrients.

However if you aren’t keen on prunes either then you can…
