  • 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, […]

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

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

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, […]

Peppers

Stuffed Bell Peppers

October 28, 2019May 13, 2020 Anastassiya Vizzini 2 Comments

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 […]

Today I want to talk about menstruations and share my experience with using menstrual cups. If you have not heard about menstrual cups, but you do care about the environment – that thing must be interesting for you. Even if you do not care about the environment, but do care about yourself – it’s still […]

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, […]

The best option for breakfast is  smoothie drink. It is best to drink it on an empty stomach and wait for half an hour before eating something else. In this case all good nutrients will be absorbed and you will get the maximum benefit from this delicious drink. In this recipe I use spirulina, but […]
