Cauliflower and Broccoli Cheese

Cauliflower and Broccoli Cheese is the ultimate comforting and warming meal. I’ve always loved it even when I used a sauce made from real cheese. So I thought I would have a go at a vegan version. You could also swap the cauliflower and broccoli for macaroni pasta too. I have done this before and...

Apple Pie Overnight Oats

If you are a fan of apple pie you need to try these Apple Pie Overnight Oats! Even if you’re not a huge apple pie fan, I bet you will still like these! I’ve used spices which are commonly used in an apple pie including cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice as well as vanilla. I chose...

Mexican Stuffed Capsicums

If you don’t know by now capsicums are one of my favourite vegetables, specifically roasted, and these mexican stuffed capsicums are the perfect way to get my fix. These are roasted to bring out all that delicious sweet capsicum flavour and filled with a Mexican inspired filling consisting of black beans, corn and a bunch...

Double Chocolate Bliss Balls

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...

Turmeric Latte

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....

Broccoli and Kale Soup

Broccoli and kale soup – it just sounds healthy. And that’s because it is. It’s full of so many vitamins and nutrients. This soup has lots of fibre, vitamin C, vitamin A, vitamin K, potassium, folate, calcium and manganese to name just a few. All of these are great for your immunity, heart health, eye...

Dairy-Free Gingerbread Frappe

What’s Christmas without a Gingerbread frappe? Or even better a DAIRY-FREE Gingerbread Frappe?  I love when Starbucks brings out their Christmas coffee range! Here in New Zealand we usually only get 3 flavours and occasionally a 4th. The ones we always get are Toffee Nut, Candy Cane and of course Gingerbread. I always get so...

Easy Vegan Trifle

I decided to make an Easy Vegan Trifle recipe as even though I love Christmas it can so often be really stressful. Long, complicated recipes for Christmas day don’t help. So I thought an easy dessert option was the way to go for those who are short on time or feeling a bit stressed and...

Vegan TVP Tacos

These Vegan TVP Tacos are my new fave and my go-to for Taco Tuesday. They’re vegan and gluten-free and ready to eat in less than 20 minutes! I love trying out and making up different taco mixes – yep as a vegetarian or vegan, there’s more than just one taco filling option! I rotate between...

Healthy Banoffee Milkshake

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...

Vegan Carbonara

Carbohydrates per serve: 8g (based on serving with konjac fettuccine). A vegan carbonara recipe may sound a little strange considering carbonara is traditionally very far from vegan, in fact it’s just about as far away from vegan as you can get. So I will start by saying this isn’t quite a carbonara as you know...

Teriyaki Tofu

Carbohydrates per serve: 15g excluding any sides. This teriyaki tofu is so good you would never guess it’s vegan and sugar-free! It uses a delicious and easy homemade teriyaki sauce, made with all natural ingredients and no nasties. The tofu is coated in cornflour and then shallow fried, giving it a crispy touch, and extra...

Vegan Eggplant Parmigiana

Carbohydrates per serve: approx. 9g*. I’m really happy with my Vegan Eggplant Parmigiana recipe! I just love when a meal which is traditionally quite heavy in animal products can be successfully veganised and still ridiculously tasty! My vegan eggplant parmigiana is the perfect comfort meal especially in the colder months. It’s also nice and low...

Vegan Chicken Enchiladas

Carbohydrates per serve: 17g. Trust me when I say my Vegan Chicken Enchiladas are so good that even if you’re a meat-eater you’ll be a convert.  They’re also high in protein thanks to the vegan Sunfed Chicken, and a lot lower in carbohydrates than your traditional enchiladas. Plus they’re super fun to make! If you...
