Of course you can always double, triple, quadruple, etc. the recipe if you have more mouths to feed. I’m using The Protein Works Vegan Wondershake – the world’s first vegan protein shake that tastes just like a dairy shake! It tastes amazing and is so silky smooth and creamy with each serving containing 22g of protein per serving. It also contains only 89 calories per serving!

Holland’s Pies Vegan Sausage Roll Review

*This post is sponsored by Holland's Pies* With more and more of us choosing to reduce our meat intake, whether that be for ethical, environmental or health reasons, it is nice to see more and more brands offering vegan alternatives to our favourite foods! Lancashire baker Holland’s Pies have launched their first vegan product that’s Vegetarian Society ‘Vegan Approved’ and I’ve been lucky enough to have some sent straight to my door to try out. The rolls are made of plant-based pastry filled with a soy protein, mushrooms, and fried onion sausage filling that’s flavoured with a mix of fragrant herbs. You can enjoy them warm or cold so they make a lovely quick lunch that leaves you feeling satisfied, [...]

Vegan Tuna Salad

Now that the weather is warming up and we’re having sunnier days, it seems like the perfect time to share a light and healthy salad that’s still hearty, filling and delicious! We’re all adjusting  to life in lockdown which  has quickly become the new norm. A lot of us are preparing way more homecooked meals than we’re used to and are on the lookout for ideas and inspirations. One of the worst feelings is when you’re hungry and you can’t think of what to prepare to eat, especially when you’ve already made a meal 4-5 hours ago. As much as I love cooking and experimenting in the kitchen with new methods, techniques and flavours, sometimes all I want to do [...]

Vegan Chocolate Oat Cups

These vegan chocolate oat cups are the perfect quarantine indulgent sweet treat made with healthier ingredients like oats and tahini! An oaty layer, with a creamy and fudgy chocolatey centre and an oaty topping. I based this recipe on my chocolate tahini oat bars, which is one of the popular recipes on my blog. I think that's down to the fact that they're so easy to make, no-bake and include healthier ingredients that are easy to get hold of. I've changed around the quantities a little, but the main difference is that they're shaped into cups rather than bars. I halved the recipe because I'm in isolation with my partner and didn't want to make the full recipe and risk [...]

Mocha Overnight Oats & Mocha Granola

A delicious mocha overnight oats recipe topped with homemade crunchy mocha granola – both made using Rheal’s new Mushroom Coffee. Overnight oats has been my go-to breakfast for years. It’s just so convenient to prepare your breakfast the night before and have it waiting for you the next morning. It’s also a healthy option for breakfast – packed with fibre in the oats and by adding things like nut butters and nuts you can get some healthy fats and protein in there too! I always like to have a jar of homemade granola in my kitchen to enjoy as a quick breakfast or snack when I’m feeling peckish and craving something sweet and crunchy. It’s also nice to have something [...]

Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Bars

I’ve been making these no-bake peanut butter cookie dough bars for years and for good reason - they’re easy, made with healthier ingredients and a great way to satisfy your sweet tooth. Here's another foolproof recipe for you that anyone can make and everyone can enjoy! They're dairy-free, gluten-free and vegan so they're perfect if you have an allergy/intolerance or want to make something sweet for a loved one who cant eat gluten, dairy or eggs. They can easily be made nut-free too by substituting the peanut butter with a seed butter or tahini.  As well as speedy recipes, I'm also really into anything cookie dough! I've actually been experimenting with a couple of other cookie dough ideas at the same time as [...]

Vegan Protein Brownie Batter

Vegan Protein Brownie Batter * This post is sponsored by The Protein Works*  A delicious healthier treat that can be enjoyed as a snack or a dessert - this vegan protein brownie batter is so easy to make and super satisfying! Easy, no-bake, mix in the same bowl kind of desserts are my favourite. They take less time to prep and leave you with fewer dishes to wash up later on. Whenever I can I do like to add protein powder into my treats to make them healthier and more filling. Using a naturally sweetened and flavoured protein powder also means I don't have to use as much sweetener/sugar to make it taste good! I'm using The Protein Works Vegan [...]

American Sweet Potato Bean Chilli

* This post is sponsored by American Sweet Potatoes* I’m a huge fan of meal prepping and batch cooking. It’s a great way to take the stress out of eating healthy as well as to save time and money! It’s also such a nice feeling knowing you have a pre-prepared meal waiting for you after a long and stressful day. It’s International Sweet Potato Week between the 1st and 11th April and I’m collaborating with American Sweet Potatoes to create a quick and easy prep-ahead of time lunch recipe that’s healthy, but also packed with flavour. I decided to make a vegan chilli as it’s easy and uses cheap ingredients that are easy to get hold of. I do use sweet [...]

Vegan Gluten-free Chocolate Mug Cake

Being in lockdown is the best time to put on your apron and get your bake on! If you’re bored and need some positive distraction, a quick baking session can only do you some good. Also, being in quarantine means it’s not as easy to nip out and get a slice of cake when you’re really craving something sweet. Now more than ever we’re looking for small comforts to get us through these unusual and uncertain times. Cake and a cup of tea may not solve any of our problems, but it can give us a short sense of relief and distraction. The best we can do right now is try to stay as positive as possible. There is some [...]
