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 […]
Crumble Cake | Vegan Gluten-Free Cake with Blackcurrant Jam
Now try this crumble cake! Really, recipe for lazy bakers! I can’t imagine an easier way to make crumble cake. Vegan, gluten-free, low-fat (only one tablespoon of coconut oil – but you can skip even this part without loosing in taste). The only possible concern is sugar. I bought blackcurrant jam made with sorbitol instead […]

Chinese Style Vegetables
Did you know, that ancient Chinese Religions (Taoism and Buddhism) promoted meat-free diets? And monks were often vegans (source).

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 day and so, I made layer caramel cake for this special occasion (here’s video-recipe). I just noticed that I probably struggling with stage fright, because once I finally decided to make a nice video-supported material for this recipe I screw up a little bit by changing the order of actions. Nevertheless, […]
