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,…
VEGAN JANSSONS FRESTELSE – savoury potato bake, inspired by the Swedish classic… and some thoughts on 2020
Crispy, crumbed topping meets creamy, savoury potato deliciousness. Could this be the perfect side dish? Maybe. And if not, if comes very, very close! Before I take you through to the easy recipe, I want to acknowledge the fact that it is New Year’s Day, 2020. And as I sit here and type the words…
VEGAN THAI-INSPIRED (NO)MEATBALLS- quick, easy & flavour-packed
Do you ever borrow from your own recipes to create new ones? That’s basically what’s happened here. Currently hooked as we are on the Panang curry flavours of our go-to tofu dish, I decided to amalgamate them with a plant-based take on Sweden’s most iconic husmanskost meal; meatballs! This incredibly snappy (20 minutes or so…
VEGAN CRISPY TOFU PANANG (PHANAENG) RED CURRY WITH RICE NOODLES- salty, sour, sweet, satisfying & gluten-free
Returning to Stockholm to be greeted by this dish – as cooked by my husband – is basically receiving the ultimate “Welcome home!” exclamation in food form. After a whirlwind magical content creation + exploration trip to Miami, CocoCay and Nassau (more on that soon. Thank you Joyce and Royal Caribbean!), followed by considerably less…
CARAMELISED FIG SKILLET PIZZA-STYLE PANCAKES + farewell to this blog + a journey from an anonymous food blog to cookbook, part 1
It is with a very sentimental and somewhat heavy heart that I announce the impending closure of this particular blog chapter. Unless you’ve shared the good, bad and everything in between via a blog before, you probably cannot understand the attachment I have to a place that has given me the ability to connect, express…
ALL-VEG EDAMAME PASTA WITH FRESH TOMATO, KALE & OLIVE SAUCE (gluten-free, 100% plant-based)… and a work-life update
Before we get to this most simple and tasty of pasta recipes, I want to chat about a couple of things (skip ahead if this bores you, I don’t mind!). Firstly, I have been sadly absent here for far too long. As always, when I am away from this blog for any length of time,…
SWEET POTATO NACHOS (with quinoa & bean mince)
This is what happened when my love of sweet potatoes met my love of nachos… a delicious plant-on-plant combination, that’s satisfying, protein-packed, tasty and very sharable. As sweet potatoes and quinoa featured heavily in my recent cooking workshop, I thought it would be nice to share another family favourite with a wider audience while dedicating it…
