Sometimes I forget how easy it is to make bread especially when life gets busy. Baking bread is so simple, though you need a hour to bake it you only need a few ingredients.
Vegan Flammkuchen (Flame Pastry)
Flammkuchen is a German dish and is composed of thinly rolled bread dough and toppings. It’s kinda like thin crust crispy pizza without the tomato sauce, usually with crème fraîche, cheese or quark . So, I made a delicious vegan version and used pesto instead!

Banana Chlorella Smoothie Bowl
Now is the time to slow down and make a beautiful and nutritious breakfast at home. Winter went by so quickly so I made a superfood spring smoothie bowl to keep that immune system strong.
Vegan (Mushroom) Adobo
I was craving for some Filipino comfort food so I decided to make vegan adobo. I made them with mushrooms but you can also use tofu or seitan, the secret is just the simply sauce.
Vollkornbrot/ Whole Grain Bread
Once you’ve had German style bread, you’ll never look at bread the same way again. My boyfriend’s mom shared with me this recipe when she gave me a pampered chef stoneware for baking. It’s delicious, filling and vegan!
Vegan Flourless Brownies
Making brownies from scratch can be time consuming and the ones in box are not as good as the homemade ones. I made some vegan brownies in under 30 minutes and they are soft and yummy!
Vegan Travels- New York, USA
Ah, the Big Apple! We have been looking forward for this trip and we were quite overwhelmed- in a good way especially with food. We couldn’t go to all the places on our list because there were just too many options. Being vegan in New York is not hard at all in fact you can get spoiled, so here are some places we went to for food.
Vegan Travels- Milan, Italy
Italy is one of the countries you would visit not just for the culture, architecture or fashion but also for its amazing food! If you’re vegan you’ll be surprised how easy it is to find plant based food in Milan, even a Michelin star quality one.
Baked Falafels with Tahini sauce
Ever since my failed attempt at making falafels 2 years ago I had this fear of making them. Finally I made some and I’m really happy with the outcome and the secret is to use dried chickpeas. It seems like a lot of work but if you plan ahead, it’s quite easy!
