Hummus is something that I eat every single day without fail! I eat it on the side of main meals with salads and cooked vegetables, and it's also one of my go-to snacks. I like to have some peeled chopped carrots in the fridge so when I'm feeling peckish, all I have to do is open the fridge, take out the hummus and carrots and devour! I also like to have it with rice cakes when I run out of carrot sticks and I'm too lazy to peel more!
Amazing tasting chocolate chip cookies that are gluten free, dairy free, vegan and contain no refined sugars? Yes, such a thing does exist! What makes this healthy chocolate chip cookie recipe even better is that it's so easy and only consists of a handful of ingredients.
So these brownies were kind of an accident. Is it just me or are the best recipes usually the ones that don't go to plan, instead they result in something even better! I was trying to make egg free chocolate cookies, but they didn't turn out exactly the way I planned, so I decided to turn them into brownies instead...and here's the result!
Raspberry Chia Pudding - delicious, easy and vibrant breakfast that only calls for 4 ingredients!
A few days ago I uploaded a post talking about applesauce, its benefits and its uses, so I thought this would be the perfect time to show you how I make my own homemade unsweetened applesauce. I use applesauce in a lot of my baking and you would be surprised at how easy it is to make at home! Essentially all you need are some apples, water, a peeler and a pan!
If you’ve followed my blogging journey from the start, you’ll probably remember that I used to use whey protein powder in a lot of my desserts and baking. It was a fun way to add protein and flavour into recipes while keeping the calories low...
I love experimenting with beans and pulses, especially chickpeas and lentils. Although I do feel that lentils are underrated and aren't given the same attention as their other counterparts. In a previous post I shared my lentil porridge recipe and talked about why I love lentils so much...
Gluten-free Vegan Chickpea Calzone Bread, pastries and anything with a crust have always been favourite kind of meals. I could happily live on toast (spread with avocado, nut butter, jam...etc), sandwiches (with different fillings) or pizza in all forms! I've always had a love hate relationship with things like pies, pastries and pasties because to me, they're some of the most delicious things on earth! But my digestive system was never too keen. When I'm having a bad day, I don't crave things like stews, curries, pasta...etc, I always want something flour based! When I'm stuck for dinner ideas, my go-to recipe for a while has been my gluten-free chickpea pizza because it's just so easy to make and my stomach doesn't give me a hard time [...]
Beans and lentils don't get the credit they deserve. Many avoid them because they have a bad reputation of causing digestive discomfort, but just like with any food, a few people can't tolerate them but most can! If you're a vegetarian or a vegan...
Middle Eastern Inspired Almond Milks - Halva & Turkish Delight Both these desserts, halva and turkish delight, have a special place in my heart. I grew up loving, but rarely eating either of them. We only had treats like this when visiting relatives or at special occasions. Not too long ago I made another 'halva' recipe - my Halva overnight oats. As you can probably tell I'm OBSESSED with tahini and tahini flavoured goodies! The Turkish delight we used to get in Iraq was usually pink, with a hint of rose flavour and crunchy pistachios in the middle. I love using funky flavoured milks to pour over my granola (like this and this), chocolate or hazelnut milk is usually my faves but I [...]
