Blended Matcha Overnight Oats
Blended Matcha Overnight Oats
*This post is Sponsored by Very* January is widely considered to be the wellness month of the year. From setting New Years resolutions, following ‘cleanse’ diets, cutting out booze for dry January or setting a goal to eat less animal products for Veganuary. So many of us embark on a mission to improve our health, well-being and start the year the right way. The only problem is, for many, once January is over it’s more difficult to keep the momentum going. ‘Wellness fatigue’ kicks in and sticking to a healthy lifestyle becomes more difficult, tedious and seems to require a lot more effort. You’ve probably heard the phrase ‘it’s not a diet, it’s a lifestyle’ a lot, but it’s true! [...]

These bars are perfect anytime of the year, but they're a particularly fitting treat for your loved one(s) this Valentine's Day!

Vegan Chocolate Fudge Cake
Vegan Chocolate Fudge Cake
(AD) I can’t think of anything better than a decadent piece of cake to get me through a long and stressful week. If you’re looking for a yummy, sweet treat that’s completely plant-based, you NEED this vegan chocolate fudge cake! I don’t often eat cake, but when I do it has to be homemade. I’ve always found homemade to be so much more delicious with a better texture. Shop bought cakes can so easily be dry and far too sweet with not much else in terms of flavour. I usually make a cake when I have people coming over, but the restrictions that we all faced over the last year and a half changed all that. All of a sudden [...]

Vegan Tofu Patties
Vegan Tofu Patties
Delicious patties that are packed with protein - these vegan tofu patties are really easy to make and are so tasty! You can enjoy them for lunch, dinner or even as a healthy snack. I love using tofu in recipes. It's so versatile and can be used in so many ways. The one I see the most is chopped into cubes and fried, but I find crumbling a block into a fine mince or blending it with other ingredients works best in terms of both texture and taste. These patties have become my new favourite way of using tofu. It's so easy, all you have to do is blend everything together, shape, then fry them for a few minutes. You [...]

These vegan no-bake flapjacks are so easy to make and super convenient to have in the fridge for when you need a quick pick-me-up. With it being January and Veganuary, vegan food and recipes are everywhere! Every year more and more plant-based products are being released into the market, which is amazing! Anything that encourages us to eat more plants has to be a good thing. However, just because something is vegan doesn't mean it's inherently healthy. The problem with a lot of shop bought snacks, including vegan snacks, is that they tend to be filled [...]
