With my life getting as busy as ever, I neglected one of my favourite things – cooking! Being in my kitchen, with my music, surrounded by all of the vegan goodies.
So here’s the first recipe in a while, i promise the next one will be soon enough!

Nuts and Seeds power bars
Omega 3, Calcium, Protein, Fiber, Copper, Magnesium, Manganese, Vitamins C, B amongst a few! All things good and healthy! What is there not to like about these bars?! The thing is, when i was making these, i really wanted to load them with as much goodness as possible, and i think we are there! They are delicious, super nutritious and fuel you for hours.
Vegan Carrot Cake and frosting
I think that a nice, moist piece of carrot cake was always one of my favourite, most comforting and satisfying sweets. So, I woke up the other day and I was determine to enjoy it once again – so I had to make the vegan version of it. And voila!
I hope you enjoy every piece of it as much as I did!
Banana bread
Honestly, i have never met anyone who doesn’t love banana breads! It is one of the most universally liked cakes, and I missed it when i became a vegan and when i decided to reduce sugar from my diet! So this vegan, no added sugar recipe came along – and boy is sooo good!
Chocolate and Matcha bars
Matcha is somewhat my current obsession! Or at least one of them! I used to read about all its benefits and I have to say I was fully convinced when I tried it! It had such an amazing effect on my energy levels and mood. Now, not a day passes by without something matcha infused!
A few words about matcha: it is made from tea leaves and is packed with antioxidants, boosts metabolism, calms the mind and relaxes the body, enhances mood and is rich in fiber, chlorophyll and vitamins.
Peanut Butter and Oats Granola Bars
Granola bars have always been my weakness when it comes to snacking. I just didn’t want the sugar the store bought ones have. So, I made this recipe, so i could enjoy my granola bars without guilt. These bars are so delicious and hearty, you can eat them as breakfast or snack. I also like the fact that they are softer than what you would expect from a granola bar.
Healthy Peanut butter cookies
While I was making these cookies I was thinking about how to indulge kids! I think it’s a common issue between mums: how to get their kids to eat healthier snacks. So i tried to combine healthy, nutritious and delicious into these cookies.
Of course is not only for kids, but for adults as well! Great to have in hand as an indulgence healthy snack or breakfast!
