There are certain times when your body craves sweet foods. No matter how hard we try to fight it by eating healthier alternatives, we just can’t shift that craving. Our Oestrogen levels are through the roof and our body simply craves sugar. Instead of constantly trying to fight that craving, if you succumb to it and eat what you fancy, the craving goes away. As a result, you stop walking back and forth to your fridge or cupboards in the hope…
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…
Hello Hello 🙂 I’ve been making batches of raw vegan carrot cake cupcakes recently because it is just what I fancied and sometimes I fancy something sweet but not chocolate? For the cream topping I used this recipe and it is so delicious and moreish! Cashew nuts are one of the most versatile wonder foods of a vegan diet and I absolutely love them. Cashew nuts have a softer texture than most nuts and a slightly sweet taste which make…

Did you know that cashews could be made into a “cheese”? Sounds crazy but it’s true. Cashew alfredo sauce is a much healthier alternative to regular alfredo; it remains creamy, delicious and the cashews add a slight sweetness to the dish also. The versatility to this dish is great so I…
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)…
To lead a healthy lifestyle it is so important to keep your cupboards not only full of good food but full of good, quick and easy foods too. The reason I say this is because there is nothing worse than coming home absolutely starving marvin and only having foods in the cupboard that takes ages to make, i.e. brown rice (who feels me on that one? lol). Also, having full cupboards means that you have everything on hand, options are endless…
The Green Rocket: Bath. A vegetarian / vegan cafe so obviously it is fantastic !! A quant little treasure in Bath city with pretty interior and many rooms to cater for hungry veggies 😜 I did take my meat eating friend here and he did find it hard to find something initially because everything is very vegan-fied (which we love, obviously…) by that I mean lots of healthy, nutritious ingredients that he doesn’t really enjoy… crazy man. However, he opted…
