The most luscious, moist vegan chocolate layer cake made for my daughter’s almost-Valentine’s Day birthday (back in 2019). And then again for my baby boy’s birthday three weeks later. And again for my big boy’s birthday a week after that. Yes, you get the picture. My children’s birthdays are very close. And we are a little obsessed with…

ROASTED PUMPKIN HUMMUS JACK-O’-LANTERN SANDWICHES – vegan & gluten-free
By popular request, and in time for Halloween 2020, I bring you the English language version of a whimsical, tasty recipe that falls on the wholesome side of the Halloween treat spectrum. I created these happy little jack-o’-lantern sandwiches for a project I worked on with one of my clients, Friggs. This is not a…
LOADED SWEET POTATO FRIES WITH ZESTY LENTIL SALAD
We might not all have the luxury of sharing food the way we used to, but when the opportunity arises to enjoy ourselves with loved ones – and that enjoyment includes something deliciously zesty, creamy, crunchy and savoury all at once – it should surely be taken. That brings me straight to this delicious, ever-so-shareable…
HERB & FLOWER VEGAN CHEESE BALLS – pretty summer snacks with fresh herbs & edible flowers
Midsummer approaches, it is raining in Stockholm (as is common/expected at this time of year) and my thoughts are divided amongst many things; the state of the world, my family, the notion that we should probably celebrate midsummer in some small way, even though it doesn’t quite seem the time to be celebrating. This year…
APPLE & CHOCOLATE BREAKFAST MUFFINS – vegan, refined sugar-free, gluten-free option
Many people tell me that they are here for my recipes; some because they want to eat plant-based, some because they have an intolerance or allergy or want to cut back on this or that, for health benefits or to try something new. Some are here for inspiration and some because it is a family…

Happy weekend, all! This recipe comes to you as a result of requests from some patient, kind folks who attempted to find this in my Instagram gallery (from around a year ago), and did not succeed. Here is the recipe in its entirety, along with an apology for not having it up here earlier! This…
CREAMY VEGAN MUSHROOM RISOTTO- with roasted butternut squash and portobellos
I first posted a version of this family favourite recipe – originally shared with me by my mamma – on my Instagram account 5 or 6 years ago. It is almost unfathomable to think I have been using that platform for so long. And almost as unbelievable that, despite my intention even then to share…
EASTER EGG DOUGHNUT NESTS- easy vegan, gluten-free decorated chocolate cake doughnuts
Before this Easter weekend officially draws to a close, I want to share the recipe for our homemade Easter treat this year. For the record, we ate several treats that were not homemade and definitely not what you could consider “wholesome”, but these particular doughnuts (or donuts, if you prefer) can absolutely be made as…
BRUSSELS AND BEETS PIZZA- gluten-free, vegan, delicious (+ an update on Oliver)
I never could have imagined when I posted my last blog entry, that literally minutes later Oliver would be on his way back to the hospital. Nor could I have imagined that it would take yet another trip to the hospital on top of that to discover that his appendix had ruptured. As I type…
GRAIN-FREE, NATURALLY SWEET VEGAN CHOCOLATE PANCAKES (a one-bowl, easy gluten-free recipe)
As cafés and restaurants are off-limits for so many right now, those of us who love a good weekend brunch out surely miss having the option to enjoy one. Thankfully we can still enjoy a long breakfast or lazy brunch at home. And, in the case of this recipe, all it takes is one bowl,…
