Vegan food rocks. We know that, and have done for a long time. But to some, and even with awesome recipes like this roasted & creamy corn soup, vegan food still has a stigma to get over. It shouldn’t be that way, but it is. No matter, we’re here to …

Every now and then I’m allowed to write a new post (and therefore new recipe) about curry. Kat and Hauke keep it under tight control as otherwise every second recipe on the site would be curry. Who am I kidding? It would be every recipe. I love curry and this …

Yesss! The sun is shining and that can only mean one thing – it’s officially the start of barbecue season! And that means it’s time for black bean burgers. Good black bean burgers. I will admit, one of the toughest things since I became veggie was getting a decent burger …

Without a doubt, there’s something joyful about simple foods. And that’s where these sweetcorn fritters really shine. They’re tasty and uncomplicated, and can virtually always be made with foods leftover in the cupboard. Eaten with a side or as a stand-alone meal, these corn fritters are an easy recipe that’s …

I’ve been really looking forward to posting these vegan breakfast potatoes for a long time now. Once in a while recipes come along that I just can’t stop eating, and these breakfast potatoes are one such recipe. All of us on the blog absolutely loved the farmer’s breakfast, and I …

Pear soup with blue cheese is undoubtedly a niche recipe. If you don’t like blue cheese, then you probably won’t enjoy this recipe. If you do like blue cheese then there’s a good chance this pear soup will blow you away. Pear and blue cheese has long been known as …

I absolutely love mashed veg when it’s done right. And that’s the key thing here – when it’s done right. If you don’t like mashed veg, whether it’s garlic mashed cauliflower or something completely different, there’s a very good chance you haven’t had the good stuff before. Amazingly, mashed cauliflower …

It’s been so long since I last posted a recipe myself. Babies and motherhood have been keeping me busy. Happy, but busy. However, as Dave and Hauke both hate mushrooms and won’t even eat one, let alone post a recipe about them, I can’t let it go any longer without …

Yess!! It’s that time of year. I get to write about Christmas and pancakes – two of my favourite things. Don’t worry if you’re reading this and it’s not Christmas, gingerbread pancakes rock at any time of the year. You’ll just have to ignore reindeer references, jolly Christmas puns and …

Well, this is a funny one. If you’re looking for vegan tuna salad, then you’re in the right place. If you came across the recipe by accident, or were curious from the title, then you might want to stick around a little longer. If you were planning to eat real …

Tabbouleh salad, Tabbouli, or even Tabouli salad is a dish that’s becoming more and more well-known away from it’s traditional Levantine (Eastern Mediterranean) homelands, and there’s very good reason for that. Made from either couscous or bulgur and seasoned with parsley, tomatoes and a mezze of other flavours, it’s extremely …

Andalusia, the southernmost region of Spain, is one of huge importance to Spain. The beautiful area not only houses around twenty percent of Spain’s modern population; its traditions and history range from Moorish rule in the distant past to a vibrant and contemporary big city culture today. Home of archetypal …

I am convinced. I’m convinced by beetroot, and I am convinced by this vegan chickpea salad. Allow me to explain. This culinary story begins not all that long ago – with the tasting of a beetroot dip. It was the first time I had tried beetroot for many, many a …

It’s official – summer is here! Living in northern Germany we can now expect a couple of weeks of sunshine – before the rain kicks in again anyway. Still, ‘make Thai quinoa salad while the sun shines’ goes the famous saying, so we will. It’s the perfect summery salad – …

Have you ever noticed anything missing from our blog? Something that has never ever been featured, never even mentioned in a passing whisper? If you’re not looking for it, you’ll never find it. We’ve ignored them so well, found their substitutes so good that they never really needed to appear …

Pea and mint soup has been around for a very long time. It’s one of the first dishes I remember (I’m not that old, I’m just making a point, bear with me) and been has been cited throughout history on countless occasions. Well-known around most of Europe, pea soup comes …
