I’d share with you guys my latest recipe creation: this spirulina smoothie. Spirulina smoothie I usually just mix a scoop (5ml) of spirulina powder into a glass of juice or water (water works best if I’m having flavoured spirulina – I particularly enjoy Nature’s Way Tropical Spirulina! – otherwise spirulina in water kinda tastes like…seaweed…). …
Making and decorating raw cakes is so fun and therapeutic – it can be time-consuming, but it really is a labour of love. Chocolate acai raw cake This raw cake features a chocolate base, and a creamy acai filling. Acai, in case you didn’t know, is a purple berry superfood! It is extremely high in …
I made the chocolate covered macadamias by coating the macadamias in a raw chocolate and let them set in the fridge. I’d never had chocolate covered macadamias before but this will definitely be something I’m going to make again, we loved these crunchy chocolatey nuts! And the strawberry nicecream was as easy as blending frozen …
I kept this smoothie bowl really simplistic (in terms of ingredients used) but guys, feel free to make any smoothie you like to turn it into a fun smoothie bowl. But you’ll want to use chilled (not frozen) fruit/veg, and some liquid, because you need the smoothie to be runny. In the video below, I …
Quinoa sushi with herbs, radish and avocado. Quinoa sushi I usually just add avocado to my sushi but when I make sushi for myself, I love to add radishes. They add a peppery flavour, a bit of heat – plus it’s a great way to use some radishes from my garden (they are fast growers!). …
We are getting into the Halloween spirit here at the Vie De La Vegan household. Halloween isn’t a widely celebrated event here in Australia, but being as interested in the supernatural world These mummied bananas were an easy and healthy dessert we made together. Just 3 ingredients (and 2 of the ingredients are fruit). And …
Grilled banana halves. Homemade creamy coconut icecream. Sugar-free chocolate drizzle. A sprinkle of chopped walnuts. (Full disclaimer: we actually ate this for lunch. Such is the life for my little recipe testers 😀 ) By the way, apologies for the melty icecream photos…it probably was not the best idea to make this for photography purposes …
A brown lentil pizza crust, made from a can of lentils! Vegan, gluten free, oil free. Once again, I was inspired by this lentil pizza crust which I made a while ago. I’ve been meaning to make a spin on that popular pizza crust, using brown lentils instead of red lentils. This recipe is quite …
The lemon gives the broccoli a really nice tang. I believe that is the secret to getting my kids to eat broccoli – disguising that cruciferous flavour! It kind of makes this recipe an adult version of mac and cheese. And the main thing I love about this recipe is that it is quick to …
After much thought, there was one homecooked meal I remembered fondly: apricot chicken. Maybe it was the sweetness that I loved so much…it was definitely tastier than a plate of mashed potato, peas and carrots, something else that I remember being served (and refusing to eat, haha). Or maybe it was the combination of the …
These pizzas are a spooky twist on a kid’s favourite meal. While they may seem like a bit of extra effort, these pizzas are truly simplistic with only two toppings – a cashew cheese “web” and olive “spiders”. To make the web, I used a gooey cashew cheese and piped it onto the pizza using …
I turned to Google and found a variety of caramel mud cake recipes that were virtually all the same. I chose this caramel mud cake recipe to veganise. But then how to make a Star Wars themed cake? Thank you Pinterest, you are a lifesaver – I came across this easy Star Wars birthday cake, …
