  • Vegan Lemon Cake (WFPB, Oil free, Fruit-Sweetened)

    Vegan Lemon Cake (WFPB, Oil free, Fruit-Sweetened)

    One of the most successful recipes my husband has ever developed is this incredible lemon cake. He has a huge sweet tooth, but after another trip to the dentist, he decided to cut sugar out of his diet. I was so disheartened! I had just mastered veganizing my favorite desserts, making them not only taste […]
  • Vegan Napoleon Cake: A Childhood Favorite Reinvented

    Vegan Napoleon Cake: A Childhood Favorite Reinvented

    Napoleon cake was one of my two favorite childhood desserts, the other being Medoviy Tort. When I decided to give up dairy, I thought I had to say “goodbye forever” to indulgent treats like ice cream, cakes, and creamy desserts. Who would have imagined that I could recreate all of these delights using plant-based ingredients? […]
  • Baked Cheesecake

    Baked Cheesecake

    During our trip to Frankfurt, my husband and I were fortunate to discover a delightful vegan restaurant. Among their many incredible dishes, we were particularly excited about the mouthwatering desserts. We ordered two types of cheesecake, both of which were amazing: baked, sweet, low-fat, light, and with a perfect texture. I’m not a fan of […]
  • Brownie

    Brownie

    This brownie cake is a favorite in our house, especially for the biggest sweet tooth! I always have the ingredients on hand, and it can be baked either in the oven or even cooked on the stove in an ordinary frying pan. Depending on how long you bake it, the texture changes—you can make it […]

Whole Wheat Flour Dough I always use whole wheat flour […]
  • Vegan Black Bean Borscht

    Vegan Black Bean Borscht

    Borsch is not just a soup. It is The Best Soup Ever! I grew up on it – not even a week could pass without having borscht for lunch. Very tasty, hearty, rich soup with an invigorating bright red color! I really don’t know a better option for dining at home. The very moment when […]
  • Veganized Beshbarmak (National Dish of Central Asia)

    Veganized Beshbarmak (National Dish of Central Asia)

    When I started my food blog, we went through different ideas and thought about the most unthinkable dishes that can be veganized. In my opinion, the craziest idea was to try to reproduce Beshbarmak – national dish of Central Asia. Kazakh New Year “Nauryz” Beshbarmak is cooked in Central Asia for big events – for […]
  • Vegan Cashew Sour Сream

    Vegan Cashew Sour Сream

    The classic recipe for vegan cashew sour cream. I share the recipe more for those who have not yet tried alternatives to sour cream, since every vegan already knows for sure how to make sour cream using nuts. It is very simple! You need a blender, water, cashews, vinegar, lemon juice, mustard and salt. How […]
  • Vegan Tamatar Paneer Malai

    Vegan Tamatar Paneer Malai

    This recipe is inspired by my recent experience at Saffron Indian Restaurant. I have already forgotten about my favorite Indian dish – Tamatar Paneer Malai, which is usually made with paneer (unaged cheese, reminds feta cheese). The restaurant had the vegan option with tofu instead of cheese! I usually associate Tofu with Chinese or Japanese […]
  • Healthful Green Smoothie

    Healthful Green Smoothie

    Green smoothies in all variations are a great start for a day. Do I even need to highlight the benefits of green leafy vegetables? The beauty of a smoothie is that you can consume a lot of greens in form of a drink without getting tired of the chewing process. For the past six months, […]
