So simple, these can be eaten as little fritters with sauces and spreads, they make for a super filling lunch or dinner as burgers and for a lighter side to a filling salad.

These AMAZING Vegan Chocolate Truffles with Coconut do not taste like apples, at all. The fruit is the secretly healthy ingredient that gives the vegan sweet the perfect moisture and binding. What they do taste like is CHOCOLATE firstly, and COCONUT. And they do taste amazingly good. One of those sweets that you can swear […]
This super versatile Chickpeas and Eggplant in Hot Tomato Sauce can be an easy side dish for vegans and omnivores alike. Although I give you the amount for each ingredient I usually use (based in 1 can of cooked chickpeas) you can make it saucier and warmer for a winter main, add maybe some more […]
A non-traditional pesto recipe approved by Italians, this Carrot Pesto is a crazy easy and healthy pasta sauce you won’t regret trying. Jokes aside, Italians are very traditional when it comes to food so they are a bit reluctant to call something pesto (other than the Genovese original recipe). Call it pasta sauce or carrot […]
This recipe for Chickpea Cutlets is the most impressive recipe I’ve found so far here in Italy. The cuisine here is very traditional so there aren’t as many recipes as I expected with alternative flours. But chickpea flour seems a solid second place with many regions having traditional (Sicilian Panelle, to name one) dishes using […]
These Carrot Bread Balls introduced me (pensandoaocontrario blog) to the fact that you can bake almost anything with oats. And a veggie. This recipe will amaze you. It is so full of flavour even without any of the spices, you can even skip the salt. The result is a soft and very filling bread ball […]
These have to be the easiest, most delicious, super-healthy whole grain oat bars. This cereal bar is sugar-free, vegan, honey-free, gluten-free and lactose-free. The coolest thing is that this banana cereal bar only has 2 required ingredients! They are surprisingly good just with banana and oats. This vegan banana oat bar is totally wholesome and […]
These Chickpea Balls have an excellent texture, I mean, they are the kind you can deep in some succulent sauce and they will hold on. They are also super easy to season. You can just play with some dried herbs and make it garlic flavour, super spicy, italian, indian and so on. And you have […]
These Chickpeas Canapès are delicious on their own, the fact that they’re made of blended chickpeas and not flour does add a lot to the flavour. And making them a high protein snack. That said, they are great as hors doeuvres, holding really well any kind of topping (I’ve tried even vinaigrette, which has a […]
I guess we can call these Banana Coconut Macaroon Cups a fruit salad recipe revisited. It is the healthiest version of coconut macaroons I’ve seen, it can taste a lot like samoa style cookies, you can bake into muffins, the pineapple topping is amazing and they still are made of only 3 fruits and nothing […]
