...once a country girl, always a country girl...
One of my favourite channels is The Food Network and over the years I've grown to love few of their regular chefs. Anna Olson being one of them. Few Christmas ago I got her recipe book - Bake with Anna Olson- and I've only now gotten round to trying her recipes. Please don't ask why it's taken so long! Anyway, since I am vegan I thought it would be a fun idea to try one of the recipes - but turn it vegan. Hence todays post - vegan creme brulee! I had never had or made creme brulee ... Read more
Before I jump into this weeks blog I firstly must apologise for the shockingly bad pictures for this recipe! Nearly all cooking/ dinner recipes are done & made in the evening, you know - for dinner! But by that time the lighting is not good. We are very quite hungry and the photography set up - is not ready. I do however think this is the last 'bad photo post' as I have got my photography corner set up now! Woohoo!! Right, vegan pie recipe- that's why you're here! Again, same all ... Read more
One of my favourite things to get from the supermarket are soft vegan chocolate chip cookies. But the problem is - there is only 1 or two options (if you're lucky) to pick from. So my baking brain went to work! This is not 100% exactly what I had in mind when I started the recipe - but it's pretty darn good! I absolutely love quick, easy & little ingredients in all my recipes. If I can chuck all ingredients in a bowl & make something - that is the best thing ever! And YES, ... Read more
When we are out & about and we stop somewhere to have lunch - I always go for the soup of the day. Yet I never really make many soups at home. Which needs to change. You can make as much or as little as you want, anything leftover you can keep in fridge for couple of days or put in airtight container and freeze it. Here is my attempt at sweet potato soup with coconut milk & homemade croutons. This is completely vegan safe. I do have to admit - for some reason lately- I am ... Read more

I don't know about you, but plants & baking are two of my top favourite things. And when I'm able to combine them - just the best day ever! A little while ago I popped in our local Lakeland store and spotted these Silicone Flowerpot cases & I knew I had to get them. As always - I'm sharing my attempt to create some cute & edible flowerpot vegan cupcake recipe. Let me just get this out of the way- No, they didn't turn out exactly how I wanted. Yes, there are things I'de ... Read more
