Sometimes it’s good to go back to basics. Basics like this simple chickpea salad. There are times when we just need recipes with simple ingredients and easy to follow instructions. Simple recipes that always work. What we don’t want is complex dressings and a load of dirty utensils, bowls and …

Hi! So you’ve decided to go vegan and you need a meal plan to help get you through the first week of an exciting new stage in your life? Or perhaps you’re already vegan and you need fresh inspiration combined with solid nutritional choices? Either way, you’re in the right …

High-protein Vegetarian Recipes Hi everybody, we vegetarians often run into the trap of turning into a “carbatarian” – someone who mostly eats foods high in (refined) carbohydrates. This often happens when we replace meat with the “wrong” stuff. Simply put: too much white bread, pasta, rice and heavily processed foods …

Nowadays the average American spends 27 minutes daily cooking. In many other western societies it’s pretty similar. Wowwww, that’s very little time to prepare a healthy and tasty breakfast, lunch and dinner – for one person. I can’t imagine how that should work for an entire family. Plus, I’m not …

Hi Food Rebels, Thanksgiving is around the corner and that means loads of Turkeys are gonna roast in the oven. And thinking about it, I don’t want to take it away from you. If there is an occasion where I’d say “I’m ok with meat on the table”, then it’s …

Oh wow, we’re already on the sixth installment of our Recipes For Future series. In the second post I claimed we are exposed to a broken food system that makes us sick and promotes obesity. That’s a very vague statement – I get that. Who are exactly the players of …

Well, I hope the guys from Apple Inc. won’t sue me for calling this overnight oat recipe after them. Actually, thinking of it, why did Jobs (?) call his company apple anyway? Quite far away from anything related to apples. Apparently Jobs was every now and then on a Frutarian …

Hello Food Rebels, Today I wanted to speak about take-outs before I move on to our three vegan recipes for Fridays. A few weeks ago I went for a Kumpir – it’s a massive baked potato with lots of different toppings. It’s popular here in Berlin and thousands upon thousands …

Hi Food Rebels, Here’s an interesting statistic: in Europe, more chickens now live in factory farms than there are wild birds. In numbers, there are 1.6 billion wild birds and there are 3 billion chicken industrially farmed in Europe (video here, in German though). In other countries you’ll have similar …

I call these ones High Protein Smoked Tofu Breakfast Egg Cups (in short: HPSTBEC). Ok, the name is clumsy, but I felt all the words needed to be in there. Feel free to suggest a better name in the comments 🙂 So these breakfast egg muffins taste like Tarte Flambee. …

Hi Food Rebels! I wanted to thank all of you for your emails and comments to our first Recipes For Future post! It’s such a motivation boost, you wouldn’t believe. In the past week I wondered why Fridays For Future triggered me so much. Do you know the food author Micheal Pollan?  In his book ‘Cooked‘ he …

Hi veggie tribe, Climate justice. It’s on! Slowly but surely camps crystallize: one is fed up with all this climate hysteria and want to send Greta on a plane home to Sweden. The other think ‘FINALLY!!‘. Dave, Kat and I are in the second camp. We are happy that the climate …

I just finished watching the trailer of the movie Tropic Thunder (saw the film ages ago). And I have to say it’s a hilarious piece, oh dear. Luckily, this recipe isn’t anything like a war comedy movie. The name fits anyway, because you’re “oating” up a tropical flavour storm in …

When we’re testing out recipes, there are three ways that a recipe (like these almond flour muffins) is guaranteed to catch our attention. 1 – taste 2- speed and/or ease 3 – nutritional health benefits In fact, these three criteria are a huge part of Hurry The Food Up. Those, …

After contacting Gisele, my favourite person from Brazil, the home of the Acai Berry, I’m happy to say I now can teach you how to make an acai bowl – original style. I bet not even the hippest California Sunshine Breakfast House can serve any better. Açaí na tigela, man! …

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. But yet so many of us just press the snooze button waaaaayy too often and then hurry to work without having breakfast. Hands up if you’ve ever done that… If your hand just went up then these six overnight oats recipes …
