Tahini Cardamom Cookies (Vegan & Gluten-free) A crunchy cookie flavoured with cardamom, cinnamon and tahini. I created these tahini cardamom cookies especially for Eid (which is this Sunday/Monday depending on the sighting of the moon).

Tahini Stuffed Chocolate Covered Dates First of all I would like to wish a happy Ramadan to everyone observing this holy month. Dates are a huge part of my daily diet, even more so during this month.

Cookie Dough Brownies Vegan, Gluten-free & Refined Sugar-free These are probably my favourite creation to date, not only because they taste absolutely delicious and decadent, they’re also probably the healthiest treat I’ve made so far!

Food Love Stories, brought to you by Tesco “Plant-based cooking is about celebration” the opening line in this video that Chef Derek created for Tesco Food Love Stories really resonates with me and I completely agree with his philosophy.
