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...

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...

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...

Carbohydrates per serve: 4.4g. My Quick Tofu and Tomato Curry is incredibly easy and fast to make, in fact it’ll be ready to eat in just 20 mins. It’s not quite traditional but I promise, I’ve been making this for years, and it’s still just as tasty! Curries usually take a long time to make,...

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 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....

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...

It’s BBQ season here in New Zealand. That time of year when the sun is out, the days are long and it’s the perfect reason to catch up with friends over food in the form of a BBQ and a few drinks. But sometimes being vegan at a BBQ can be difficult. Traditionally BBQs are...

Salads are ideal during summer when it’s too hot to eat something too heavy. When I started creating this Summer Medley Salad I wanted something bright, fresh and reminiscent of summer. I also wanted to create something substantial and filling that could stand on its own but could work equally well as a side. I...

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.
