  • 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 […]
  • Vegan Dumplings: A Perfect Meal Prep

    Vegan Dumplings: A Perfect Meal Prep

    These dumplings are a fantastic meal prep option—delicious, unique, and easy to make! I love treating my guests to these vegan dumplings because they look stunning on the plate, require minimal attention while steaming, and have a rich, special flavor. No one can resist them! 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, […]

Super Easy Vegan Lentil Soup

June 16, 2020August 25, 2022 Anastassiya Vizzini Leave a comment

There are many vegan recipes that are ridiculously easy. For example this lentil soup. I call it “unwed men’s soup” 😀 , because my hubby invented this recipe while I was away travailing.  This tasty soup contains no oil, it is high in protein and it is super easy: it is cookes in one pot […]

Water, Fiber and Oneness

June 15, 2020November 30, 2020 Anastassiya Vizzini Leave a comment

Fiber We all know about the benefits of fiber. Nutritionists (no matter which diet they are promoting) all agree that high-fiber foods help us to maintain normal gut functioning. However, it usually misses our attention that fiber without water doesn’t work! The more fiber you consume, the more water your body needs. Otherwise there will […]

Vegan Crumble Cake

Crumble Cake | Vegan Gluten-Free Cake with Blackcurrant Jam

June 11, 2020September 30, 2024 Anastassiya Vizzini Leave a comment

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 […]

Moon

June 6, 2020August 3, 2020 Anastassiya Vizzini Leave a comment

Yesterday we went out for a walk by the sea, and had funny conversation with my hubby. There was a full moon in the sky and we started to talk about gravity. When it comes to full moon we usually think about water, about connection of the moon with ebbs and flows in  seas and […]

Healthy, No-Sugar Oatmeal Cookies

June 4, 2020September 30, 2024 Anastassiya Vizzini Leave a comment

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

June 3, 2020June 7, 2020 Anastassiya Vizzini Leave a comment

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

May 31, 2020June 7, 2020 Anastassiya Vizzini Leave a comment

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 […]

Vegan diet, Doubts and Depression

May 27, 2020November 30, 2020 Anastassiya Vizzini Leave a comment

If you would ask me 4 years ago, if I ever doubt the diet I have chosen, I would say “no, never”  – and I would lie. Today I am able to admit the truth: as far as I know myself, I always doubt my decisions, and my diet is no exception. Vegan diet, same […]

Spread for bread

May 24, 2020May 24, 2020 Anastassiya Vizzini Leave a comment

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

May 24, 2020August 25, 2022 Anastassiya Vizzini Leave a comment

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 […]

Hi there! I am Anastassiya - Vegan Nutritionist, author and administrator of the Vizzini Journal.
I have been vegan since 2017 and I feel the urge to contribute into development of this movement.
