Try this crumble cake—it’s a perfect recipe for lazy bakers! It’s vegan, gluten-free, and low-fat (with only one tablespoon of coconut oil, which you can even skip without losing any flavor). The only concern might be sugar. I opted for a blackcurrant jam made with sorbitol instead of regular sugar. Sorbitol is a fructose derivative […]

Healthy, No-Sugar Oatmeal Cookies
I’m excited to share my go-to recipe for oatmeal cookies—one that’s wholesome, delicious, and guilt-free. These cookies contain no oil, no sugar, and no artificial sweeteners like syrup. Instead, they’re made entirely from natural, whole ingredients, making them a healthier alternative to traditional cookies. If you’re trying to cut back on sugar but still want […]
Chinese Style Vegetables
Did you know, that ancient Chinese Religions (Taoism and Buddhism) promoted meat-free diets? And monks were often vegans (source). Maybe this is the reason why Chinese cuisine has so many meat alternatives to offer, like seitan, tofu… And there are various Chinese dishes with vegetables and seaweed, that are traditionally made vegan. I like Chinese […]
Chickpea Curry
Curry is one of the easiest dish to cook. You can make curry very fast (I saw recipe that takes just 5 min!) in big amounts. This is very handy for a big family, I think. I learned to cook curry from my sister, who has 2 children. Oh, she cooks amazing curry! Here I […]
Spread for bread
I want to share with you one idea, what you could do with remaining press cake after you make home-made almond milk. This is a very easy recipe of spread for bread, that I really like. This portion is very small, however, you can collect your almond press cake and store it in the freezer, […]
Almond Milk in 10 minutes
I like to add plant-based milk to my hot drinks (tea, coffee, cocoa). Soya milk is my favourite, almond milk – second favourite. However, it is not that easy to make tasty home-made soya milk: I had several attempts, it took me a lot of effort, and still I like factory-made better. Quite different situation […]
Layer Caramel Cake
Today is our anniversary, and to celebrate, I made a Caramel Layer Cake. I’m proud to say this recipe is entirely my own creation. As a child, my favorite layer cake was Medovik, a delightfully sweet Russian honey cake. This cake holds a special place in my heart for its gingerbread-like layers and rich, thick […]
Kimchi
Kimchi is a Korian salad made with cabbage. In any city of Kazakhstan you can easily find a place on the market where Korean salads are sold. This is one of the features that distinguishes life in Cyprus from living at home. Sometimes, sending me to the market, my grandmother asked me: “What about you, […]
Stuffed Bell Peppers
Stuffed peppers have always been my favourite dish. And in fact, it was never important what they were stuffed with. Here is my experimental recipe, which turned out to be very successful. However, I did not calculate the proportions precisely, and made too much filling. So as a result I “killed two birds with one […]
Pumpkin Soup
This pumpkin soup is very easy option for lunch or dinner, if you are lazy or not so hungry. I personally like this soup very much. And don’t be very sensitive to pumpkin! If you are a vegan, it doesn’t mean that you have no negative emotions at all. We are all humans, and yes, […]
