Ok so this doesn’t really taste that much like cream cheese. But it’s really tasty and has a similar consistency. I actually prefer the taste to cream cheese, plus no cows harmed in the making! Win win! It’s incredibly easy to whip up and it can be stored in the fridge for 3-4 days which...

Ok so full disclosure this recipe isn’t really mine. I have made some changes to an already existing recipe to make it vegan. It’s also not particularly low carb either due to the pastry. However I wanted to do this one as when I was a kid I absolutely loved it. My mum bought this...

These Banana Oat Muffins are approx. 16g of carbs per muffin. Do you find yourself often buying bananas and then you don’t eat them in time and they go brown? I do. All the time! And for me that means baking time! You could also peel them, chop them up and freeze them ready for...

Crackers are a great snack. Easy to eat on the go and easy to mix up with lots of different dips and toppings. The problem is though a lot of crackers (not all) you find in your local supermarket are loaded with carbs, often sugar, and milk products. I honestly spend far too much of...

With Easter just around the corner I thought it would be nice to provide a chocolatey recipe which diabetics and vegans can enjoy! So many Easter treats are loaded with sugar and dairy, but my chocolate truffles are both vegan and sugar while still being delicious! You wouldn’t guess they don’t include sugar or animal...

There’s never a bad time to boost your immunity, but with the COVID-19 pandemic and winter on its way now seems like a better time than ever. A smoothie is a really good way to do it too because it’s full of real food and ingredients and you can fit so much in. Plus those...

This lemon poppy seed loaf is not only vegan and sugar-free but it’s also gluten-free! I usually don’t do gluten free baking, in fact I tend to stay clear of it. It’s so different from normal baking and even more difficult when I’m trying to also make something vegan and sugar free. I always just...

These double chocolate bliss balls are perfect for a quick snack or afternoon pick me up. So, what is a bliss ball? I switch between calling them a bliss ball, an energy ball and a snack ball. They’re all of those really. A little blissful mouthful of energy, great for a snack. They’re a really...

This week I thought I’d try making a neapolitan chia seed pudding. Yup you read that right. Like the ice-cream flavour but in healthy, chia seed form.  Chia seed puddings are pretty weird, you can make them just with chia seeds and milk, the chia seeds expand and go kind of jelly like and with...

I love a good turmeric latte. They’re warm and comforting and perfect for a cold morning or evening and they look pretty awesome too. If you’re avoiding caffeine, a turmeric latte makes a great substitute, although you could also add coffee to this if you like. Just add a couple of teaspoons of instant coffee....

I’ve always looooved peanut butter cups. Before I was vegan or diabetic I was obsessed with Reeses. Chocolate and peanut butter is just the perfect combo, that semi sweet, thick creamy peanut butter centre covered in a coating of delicious chocolate. What’s not to like?  Well unfortunately, Reeses are made with dairy and a lot...

Caramel slice is a treat I used to love getting from the bakery or a cafe, however, they generally are loaded with sugar as well as butter and who knows what other animal products! Fortunately I’ve come up with a recipe which is vegan and refined sugar-free as well as gluten-free so you (and I)...

Homemade hummus is the best, it’s super easy and quick to make, relatively cheap and you can make it your own by mixing up flavours and adding different things! And my homemade hummus – 3 Ways gives you 3 different flavours to try out! You could try them all or just pick one you like...

I’ve been working on a recipe for a Vegan Low Carb Peanut Butter Brownie Mug for a little while now and I’m SO excited that I finally have one! I love a brownie mug as they’re so easy and quick to make and are such a good little dessert for those post dinner sweet tooth...

Plant milk, or mylk, is becoming increasingly popular. They’re not only better for you and the plant but lots of them, such as my Homemade Almond Milk are also super easy to make yourself! More and more people are starting to realise the benefits of less dairy and more plant based options. In the Euromonitor...

I first made these vegan rice paper rolls a few months back to take to a friend’s potluck birthday lunch. I wanted something which would suit multiple dietary requirements as there’s a few in or group of friends. So that included vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free and not ridiculously high in carbs. While these rice paper rolls...

I am a self-confessed peanut butter fiend. It’s no secret I’m kind of obsessed with the creamy peanut spread, and luckily this recipe for homemade peanut butter is incredibly easy and it only contains two ingredients – peanuts and salt. No nasty additives or preservatives, and no unnecessary sugar! My husband and I go through...

Chocolate chip cookies are the quintessential cookie, the cookie of all cookies if you will, and I’m pretty happy with my version – vegan, sugar-free chocolate chip cookies! Yep that’s right, it is actually still possible to make this cookie without any animal products or sugar. They’re a nice golden brown and soft and chewy...

If you love olives this Easy Olive Tapenade is for you. It’s full of olive flavour, vegan, gluten-free and has almost zero carbohydrates. As the name suggests it’s also really easy to make – just put all the ingredients into a food processor or blender and blend until combined.    What is an olive tapenade?...

This Healthy Banoffee Milkshake is, well, healthy. But you wouldn’t think so, it’s super tasty and loaded with banana and toffee flavour, aka banoffee (not banana and coffee which is what my husband seems to keep thinking!). This milkshake is vegan, refined sugar-free, gluten-free and nut-free.  I do need to point out that even though...

Carbohydrates per 30g serve: approx 2g This No-Cook Strawberry Chia Jam is not quite like the traditional jam you’re used to. Traditional jam uses a huge amount of sugar for both sweetness and for setting and consistency. This recipe skips the added sugar entirely and instead uses a small amount of sweetener and chia seeds....

These vegan Cauliflower Buffalo Wings are my meat-free, healthy take on the traditional chicken version. They’re also quicker to make than chicken buffalo wings, and if you need these gluten-free, that’s super easy to do in this recipe, I got you.  These are really yum and are perfect for sharing. Carbohydrates per serve (including ranch...

Carbohydrates per 1 brownie: 2g. These low carb vegan brownies are honestly the best brownies! They are so incredibly chocolatey and fudgey, you would never guess they don’t contain animal products or sugar. They’re also gluten-free and nut-free!  This brownie recipe uses sunflower seed flour. Yep that’s a thing. It’s great because sunflower seeds are...

My Sugar-Free Zucchini relish is carb free so is ideal for anyone watching their carb intake but still wanting a snack which doesn’t feel like diet food.  One of my favourite snacks is crackers loaded with delicious relishes, pickles or chutneys, but unfortunately they’re usually made with lots of sugar, preservatives and/or colours. This is...

These Indian Spiced Nuts are the ultimate all rounder. They’re really tasty with just a little kick of heat, they’re vegan, gluten-free, filling and healthy! On top of all of that, this recipe is really quick and easy and makes a nice big batch. These Indian spiced nuts make a great snack any time, but...

Carbohydrates per serve: almost none, approx. 0.06g. This vegan mayonnaise is so good you would never guess it’s vegan! Just like regular mayo it’s really nice and thick, creamy and tasty. Perfect for adding to sandwiches, burgers, my fave – patatas bravas, or just anything you enjoy with mayo! It only uses 4 ingredients, takes...
