It's almost that time of year, PANCAKE TIME! Ok, so Shrove Tuesday isn't until 9th February it's never to early to start practicing right? A few years ago I had a pancake party and it was so great, but I thought I'd try to make a simpler gluten free and vegan pancake so here goes!

Last year I made some energy bites and I've been eating them on and off since, but they had puffed rice in them so they didn't stay crispy for long and I'd end up eating them way too fast! So I though I'd rethink it and throw together something smoother (this worked better than my … Continue reading SWEET TREATS: Date energy balls
If you read my new year, new me post you'll know that I don't believe in giving things up in January (unless you're giving up animal produce like my Veganuary buddies and even then I prefer to think of that as adding more compassion into your life) which is why I'm blogging about this wonderful fudge, … Continue reading SWEET TREATS: Peanut butter fudge

In fact, knowing that … Continue reading SWEET TREATS: Chocolate energy bites

I think that lots of people assume that eating a vegan diet is all humous and carrots, ok bad example because that's my favourite snack but if you're smart about what you eat you can banish that feeling of FOMO (yeh … Continue reading SWEET TREATS: Chocolate pudding
Chocolate makes me very happy but now that I'm eating a plant based diet, it can be tough to get my chocolate fix these days and even when I do, I get sad that everything is packed full of sugar. So, to the kitchen! Surely sweet potato brownies will work and give me that hit … Continue reading BAKED GOODS: Sweet potato brownies
A while back I made some vegan friendly ice cream that was inspired by a Gwyneth Paltrow recipe for sweet and salty ice cream. Every time I make this banana based ice cream I almost cry with joy at how easy it is to make and how it doesn't give me that icky feeling that real ice … Continue reading SWEET TREATS: Mint, chocolate ice cream
