Chocolate Chip Doughnut Cookies – Vegan & Gluten-free

Chocolate Chip Doughnut Cookies – Vegan & Gluten-free

Chocolate Chip Doughnut Cookies A crunchy cookie shaped like a doughnut. Who could resist one of these chocolate chip doughnut cookies? I haven't posted a dessert recipe on my blog in a while, which is so unlike me! So I thought it was about time I posted a new healthified treat. Chocolate chip cookies are a classic, and although they're perfect just the way they are, I wanted to put a fun spin on them. I used a silicon doughnut mould to create choc chip cookies shaped like a doughnuts to make them stand out from the crowed, and also because why not? I don't know what it is with me and doughnut shaped treats that are not actually doughnuts! I just [...]

Mushroom Stuffed Potato Cakes

Mushroom Stuffed Potato Cakes

Mushroom Stuffed Potato Cakes Fluffy potato cakes stuffed with a fragrant lemony herby mushroom mixture. These mushroom stuffed potato cakes would make an amazing addition to meals. I made these potato filled cakes around this time last year and they went down a treat with the family. I had it in mind to make this recipe again to share on the blog, but then completely forgot about it! I then made them again a couple of months ago, took the photos, but wasn't 100% happy with the way the shots turned out. Now I've got my act together, made them again and actually took some really decent pictures this time. So now I can finally satisfied with the cakes AND the images. [...]

Vegan Caramel Magnum

Vegan Caramel Magnum

Vegan Caramel Magnum If this UK heat isn't a good excuse to make my own homemade version of Magnums, then I don't know what is! Not that I need an excuse to make any form of ice cream. I welcome ice cream any time of the year, but I definitely crave it a lot more when it's scorching hot. So hot that even having a fan facing me at all time doesn't really do much to stop the sweating. I posted a picture of these vegan caramel Magnums on my Instagram page yesterday as a teaser and I received such an amazing response, so I just had to post them ASAP. As someone commented "it would be rude not to [...]

Strawberry Chocolate S’mores

Strawberry Chocolate S’mores

Strawberry Chocolate S'mores S'mores aren't really a thing here in the UK, but they really should be! Two crunchy biscuits (aka cookies) with a melted marshmallow and melted chocolate. I can't think of anything better :D I missed out on so many years of toasted marshmallow goodness. I really didn't know what I was missing out on until I tried one for the first time and I was hooked! Really puts the regular, un-toasted marshmallow to shame. And now you can get gelatine-free marshmallows too (yay!!). In celebration of the Royal Wedding, I've created a traditional American recipe with a British twist by adding in some chopped strawberries to give them a 'strawberries and cream' feel. Everyone is in agreement [...]

Chai Hot Chocolate (Vegan & With No Added Sugar)

Chai Hot Chocolate (Vegan & With No Added Sugar)

Chai Hot Chocolate (Vegan & With No Added Sugar) A delicious and warming chai hot chocolate with no dairy and no added sugar! Have you made any New Year's resolutions? If so were you able to stick to them? I haven't made any as such, but I've been making a conscious effort to cut down on the amount of sugar I consume. A big part of my job consists of creating and experimenting with new recipes, most of which happen to be sweet because they're the kind of recipes you (my lovely blog readers and social media followers) seem to love most! And I'm usually not 100% happy with a recipe unless I've tried it 3-4 times. Sometimes even more! So you can imagine [...]

Tesco Wicked Kitchen Plant-based Meals Review (AD)

Tesco Wicked Kitchen Plant-based Meals Review (AD)

Tesco Wicked Kitchen Vegan Meals Review ••WATCH MY VIDEO REVIEW ABOVE•• Have you heard that Tesco have recently released a whole range of plant-based ready meals, sandwiches and wraps? I was so excited when I heard about these products. Finally there are options for us plant-based eaters that are so easily accessible to everyone. I live up north in Manchester and I struggle to find meals and sandwiches that are both meat and dairy-free. Sometimes when I'm out food shopping I like to pick up a couple of pre-prepared meals for those days when I know I'll be too busy to cook a meal. There are also times when I'm out and about and need to grab something quick for lunch and it's [...]

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 [...]

Anti-inflammatory Golden Turmeric Milk

Anti-inflammatory Golden Turmeric Milk

Anti-inflammatory Golden Turmeric Milk As some of you may already know, I've been suffering with eczema, IBS, anxiety and low mood for many years (click here to find out more). My immune system seems to be very active and so I have a lot of inflammation in my body. Chronic inflammation is bad news as it's the precursor to many chronic diseases, which is worrying, so I try to eat as many anti-inflammatory foods as possible. Turmeric being one of them. Turmeric is said to be one of the best natural anti-inflammatory agents out there, definitely something to include in the diet, especially if you have any kind of auto-immune conditions and allergies. When it comes to making anti-inflammatory golden turmeric milk, there [...]

Black Bean Avocado & Mango Tacos

Black Bean Avocado & Mango Tacos

Black Bean Avocado & Mango Tacos I've always found avocado and mango to be such an excellent combination. The rich texture and buttery taste of the avocado complements the complex sweetness of the mango so well! I usually combine them in salads like I did in my kale, mango and avocado salad. Another thing that goes well with avocados is beans! I find beans so comforting. There's something about their texture that when you bite into them you know you're giving your body something nourishing without feeling like you're actually eating 'healthy'. Unlike the feeling you get from eating a boring salad. You know it's good for you so you eat it, but it doesn't offer much in terms of the feeling [...]
