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...

Low Sugar Cocktails

This trio of Low Sugar cocktails are perfect for summer. They are full of fresh fruit and are super refreshing, plus they look so pretty!  All 3 of these cocktails only contain natural sugars from the fruit which is in them, no refined sugars. Using whole fruit rather than just syrups or fruit juices also...

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 Nut Roast

A Vegan Nut Roast is the staple main for a vegan or vegetarian Christmas. Probably because they’re delicious and also have lots of protein as nuts are really high in protein. So maybe someone back in the day thought a good vegetarian alternative to the traditional meat dishes should be high in protein? Who knows....

Pumpkin Spice Bundt Cake

My latest addition to my Chritsmas recipe lineup is a pumpkin spice Bundt cake. Vegan of course and also sugar-free.  This is sort of a new, original take on the traditional pumpkin pie. I love a good (vegan) pumpkin pie as much as the next person but to be honest it can be a bit...

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...

Stuffed Pumpkin

Stuffed Pumpkin – my first dish of the festive season! Wahoo!  One of my favourite things about Christmas is the food. I love eating such a variety of dishes and trying bits of everything. The main Christmas event for a lot of families tends to be sitting around the table enjoying a Christmas lunch or...

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...

Vegan Sugar-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

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...

Vegan Bean Chili

My husband and I often find ourselves enjoying this vegan bean chili for a midweek dinner. Usually when a) we either haven’t bothered to plan anything for dinner, or b) haven’t made it to the grocery store yet. This recipe is perfect for those nights as most of the ingredients are really common pantry items....
