Vegan & Gluten-free Trifle

Vegan & Gluten-free Trifle

Vegan & Gluten-free Trifle If you're new to the word trifle - it's basically a dessert, or type of pudding, where sponge cake and fruit are layered in a special wide trifle serving dish with custard and jelly. It's usually topped with lots and lots of whipped cream. I know it doesn't sound super healthy, but you can imagine how delicious that combination is, can't you? A spoonful of cake, fruit, custard, jelly and cream all in one mouthful? Genius! Before we move on any further, I have a confession to make. I don't think I've actually ever tried a trifle before. It's such a quintessential British dessert, so I feel it's a big deal that I've never tired it! [...]

Asian Vegetable Peanut Butter Rice

Asian Vegetable Peanut Butter Rice

Asian Vegetable Peanut Butter Rice It shouldn't come as a surprise that Asian food is one of my favourite types of cuisines. I've fallen in love with every single Asian dish I've tried. I can't get enough of dishes like sushi, pad thai, katsu curry, pho and ramen and the list goes on! Each dish has it's own unique flavour but they're all equally as comforting, aromatic and satisfying. The reason I used the word 'Asian' in the title rather than specifying a country is simply because the recipe has no origin and is not based on any one specific traditional dish. I used Asian inspired ingredients like spring onions and edamame beans and flavours like ginger, chilli and miso to put [...]

Vegan Spicy Mexican Tacos

Vegan Spicy Mexican Tacos

Vegan Spicy Mexican Tacos Tacos are considered such a treat in my household. They’re really easy to put together, taste delicious and are so filling and satisfying! Our go-to movie night treat. This is my second recipe for the Global Cuisines series in collaboration with GOODMINZ using their fresh minces, which are made completely from plants and with no soy! We kick started the series with my American Style Burgers served with a homemade mayonnaise. Today, we’re moving south of the border and visiting Mexico with this spicy Mexican inspired Taco recipe. GOODMINZ is a new kitchen staple made with fresh and wholesome plant-based ingredients. It comes in four different vibrant colours (green, orange, brown and purple), each with a [...]

Chocolate Cups with Black Forest Banana Ice Cream

Chocolate Cups with Black Forest Banana Ice Cream

Chocolate Cups with Black Forest Banana Ice Cream Even though summer is now officially over and posts of soups, curries, pies and porridge are saturating the various social media platforms, I think ice cream can never be out of season. Have you ever seen a restaurant menu that doesn't feature ice cream on the dessert menu? No! There is always room for ice cream regardless of the time of year. Chocolate and ice cream are my favourite two treats. There is no question in my mind that they taste even better when paired together. These chocolate cups with black forest banana ice cream are perfect as a post dinner treat, especially at a dinner party. Why serve ice cream in a normal bowl when you [...]

Roasted Vegetable Tofu Quiche (Vegan & Gluten-free)

Roasted Vegetable Tofu Quiche (Vegan & Gluten-free)

Roasted Vegetable Tofu Quiche (Vegan & Gluten-free) You can't beat a good quiche with a side salad for lunch. But this is no ordinary quiche. This is a plant-based quiche made with tofu! Tofu is an amazing plant-based substitute for meat and eggs. It's a great source of calcium, protein, omega-3, selenium and zinc, all nutrients that can be lacking in a plant-based diet. I added some nutritional yeast to give it a cheesy/nutty flavour and some homemade sun-dried tomato pesto for an Italian twist. Packed full of delicious herby veggies to add more flavour, texture and vibrant colours! The crust is a simple mixture of oat flour, buckwheat flour and ground almonds which made for a scrumptious crumbly base. This quiche [...]

Salted Caramel Protein Ice Cream Doughnuts

Salted Caramel Protein Ice Cream Doughnuts

Salted Caramel Protein Ice Cream Doughnuts These salted caramel protein ice cream doughnuts are made up of a cookie/biscuit base, a protein salted maca caramel centre, a layer of gooey caramel all dipped in chocolate to make them extra decadent and lush! You really NEED to try this recipe! Prior to starting my blog and Instagram page, I never thought I could ever be creative. I grew up in Iraq, a country and environment that didn't encourage creativity. Not because its people chose not to be creative, but because they had been through so much hardship over the decades. We had to endure war after war, economic decline and never ending financial struggles. So over time things like creativity were seen as a luxury. Our [...]

Simple Gluten-free Vegan Crepes

Simple Gluten-free Vegan Crepes

Simple Gluten-free Vegan Crepes Although I already have a basic vegan crepes recipe, my oat & spelt crepes, which is very similar to this recipe, I wanted to make a gluten-free version so my readers with a gluten allergy/sensitivity can also enjoy them. So I made a couple of tweaks to the original recipe and substituted the spelt flour for buckwheat flour. These gluten-free vegan crepes are so easy to make and only call for a handful of ingredients and are ready in no time! Perfect for a fun and chilled Saturday or Sunday morning to serve to friends and family. You can stack them, sprinkle with fruit and nuts, or fill them with nut butter or homemade Nutella and roll them. [...]

Chai Ice Cream Sandwiches (Vegan & Gluten-free)

Chai Ice Cream Sandwiches (Vegan & Gluten-free)

Chai Ice Cream Sandwiches (Vegan & Gluten-free) I am a self-confessed cookie monster. I just LOVE cookies, biscuits, or whatever else you want to call them. I love the soft kind, crunchy kind and everything else in between! What's better than eating one cookie? Eating two cookies, of course! And what's better than eating two cookies? Sandwiching some ice cream in between two cookies and creating ice cream cookie sandwiches! The first time I tried a cookie sandwich was on our honeymoon. We walked past a cafe in Spain and hubby asked me if I had ever tried an ice cream sandwich. He was like "you HAVE TO try an ice cream sandwich!" when he found out I'd never experienced the joy of [...]

Golden Smoothie & Chia Pudding Parfait

Golden Smoothie & Chia Pudding Parfait

Golden Smoothie & Chia Pudding Parfait If you've seen my golden turmeric milk post, you'll know how much I love turmeric and everything it has to offer. It's an ingredient I try to incorporate in my daily diet as a natural anti-inflammatory agent to help keep my eczema, IBS and inflammation at bay. So many of you loved the golden turmeric milk so much that I thought it would be appropriate for me to show you another easy way to incorporate this amazing ingredient into your diet. Another thing that I love just as much as turmeric is pre-prepared breakfasts. That's meals that you prepare the night before to take the stress out of breakfast time the following morning. I'm one of [...]
