It's my boyfriend's sister's birthday party today, and to keep things short: i needed a snack/dessert to replace the birthday cake that i wouldn't be eating. And a few days ago i stumbled across the 3-ingredient "Ferrero Raffaello"  balls by Agnieszka @biegiemdolodowki on instagram that sounded sooo genius and incredibly healthy - i just had to try them as soon as possible!

Since Agnieszka didn't give any measurements on how to create her delicious looking truffles, i had to come up with my own recipe. #fromscratchwithlove

I love making granola and muesli in my oven! It always smells so lovely, of roasted nuts and cinnamon and sweet fruits, like Christmas almost. 

But the taste is even better! Roasted, slightly caramelized raisins, soft but crunchy figs, banana chips, nutty almonds... you don't even need to bake the ingredients, this could be a RAW recipe, but if you ask me, roasting brings out the flavours so well, I wouldn't wanna miss it!

Yep, another Curry recipe. Because we are in Thailand right now, and there's (green) curry EVERYWHERE! Luckily, I love anything to do with Asian stir-fry, rice, curry and spicyness. 

Also, my boyfriend and i had lunch at a vegan-friendly restaurant thingy in my hometown. I had the vegan Green Thai Curry which tastes amazing even after the third time ordering the same dish (and the rice is sooo fluffy...!), but to be honest i think presentation-wise we almost did a better job with our homemade curries, both this one as well as the beautiful colourful Curry Coconut Rice Stir-Fry from last year :) 

But see for yourself.

falafel, burger, chickpea, vegan, gluten-free, lunch




I have to admit something... i've never had a burger before! And by never, i mean never (unless perhaps when i was a child but in that case it would have been McDonald's crap). It's a tragedy, i know...

But that has changed! I made my first ever - homemade! - VEGAN & GLUTEN-FREE BURGER and it was a-ma-zing!

So far i've learned the two basic rules of burger making:

(1) Stuff as much as you can in between the two bun halves. Sauce dripping out? Score!
(2) Make as much of a mess while eating as possible. The bigger and messier bites, the better.
 
There will be many more burger recipes coming, be sure of that. I'm hooked.

Usually I don't eat bread - like, ever - but this spicy hummus spread made me eat several slices of bread. This tells you a lot about the tastiness of this humus (or about my inconsistency). 

Since i've had a huge organic Hokkaido pumpkin (my favourite) lying around in my room ever since my birthday in September, i decided to make several recipes with this big baby!

Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream
Pumpkin Ketchup
Pumpkin Hummus

The latter one is probably my favourite, though it's hard to tell because each of the 3 dishes have their very unique taste. I've made a bunch of hummus variations so far (classic hummus, curry hummus, carrot hummus), but this one has a nice sweet twist and makes a perfect healthy, satisfying snack.

We also made some Mediterranean Oven Baked Tomato Bread - you can find the recipe below!

Hello Beautiful,

it's #pancakesunday again! How are you today? I'm feeling great because after a snug movie night with friends and a nice sleep in my boy and I started the day with this delicious stack of buckwheat pancakes. Buckwheat pancakes (blinis) are actually part of traditional Russian cuisine, but my version is vegan, gluten free and refined sugar free!

I mean, how can you step a Sunday wrong when you start with a thick pancake stack like this?

Yes, i'm vegan, but i don't really like tofu all that much. In fact, the only soy product i do use on a regular basis, is soy milk. 

However, when i was scrolling through Jo's instagram feed, which by the way has become one of my top favourites (I somehow discovered him in the depths of Instagram and grew to love him - perhaps because he's a guy and he's vegan and I think that's great - very superficial I know - or just because of his gorgeous vegan food pictures!)

Believe it or not, but this dessert is much healthier than what most people have as a main meal! It is based on kidney beans and cornmeal, sweetened with nothing but fruit and xylitol (read about the incredible - dental! - health benefits of xylitol here or here). 

But if you didn't know, you wouldn't even notice.
