This recipe uses the same first steps as my peanut butter/tahini cookie dough protein balls, but includes baking instructions to turn them into crumbly cookies. The texture of these cookies is not like regular cookies, I have to warn you upfront. They are crumbly, but do hold their shape. Ingredients: 8 grams of coarse brown…

VEGAN ICE CREAM REVIEW: Oppo simply the zest
I love trying out new vegan products, especially ice cream. I have previously tried several kinds of (low calorie) ice cream, some with more success than others. My favourite regular ice cream is probably the Alpro salted caramel and almond, or Ben and Jerries coconutterly caramelled. I enjoyed the Alpro 360 flavours that I tried,…
Easy vegan coffee chocolate mousse – healthy-ish
Is there a better dessert than chocolate mousse? Well, I might have a thing; coffee flavoured chocolate mousse! My parents used to make a coffee chocolate mousse at diner parties, but their version includes eggs and whipping cream if I am not mistaken. Since I try to eat mostly vegan, I wanted to make a…
It’s been a long time, now I’m coming back (maybe?)
Hey everybody that reads this, as you may have noticed if you have read my blog before, you know that I have started in 2017. I have had periods in which I have tried to post once or twice every week, but lately there has been a long silence from my side. With starting my…
REVIEW: Alpro barista almond, does it really foam well?
I love coffee. I like it black or with (soy)milk. However, when I do add plantbased milk to my coffee, I am a bit picky. I want a nice bit of foam and I don’t want it to seize (which sometimes happens if the coffee is a bit more acidic, especially with decaf-coffee). Of course…
PRODUCT REVIEW: valsoya caramel and chocolate “Magnums”, ice cream on a stick
I recently went on a trip to a different supermarket (the Plus), which has a different vegan range of products than my normal supermarket. I therefore wanted to test some things and share my experience with you guys, especially since my vegan Halo Top and Oppo ice cream reviews are some of my more popular…
PRODUCT REVIEW: vegan tuna (good catch)
I recently wanted to test out some (new) vegan products, and one of the products I had my eyes on was a vegan tuna alternative by Good Catch. I had to go to another supermarket (the Plus) to get this, and it was fairly pricey, 3.15 euro’s for 94 grams. One of the things that…
VEGAN ICE CREAM REVIEW: Alpro salted caramel and Madagascar vanilla
Due to the popularity of my review of the Oppo vegan very berry ice cream review, which can be found HERE, I thought I would share my thoughts on another vegan ice cream, that is a bit lighter. Alpro has different flavours of ice cream depending on the region where you live, and I reviewed…
RECIPE: LOADED VEGAN JACKET SWEET POTATOES to please even meat-lovers!
I don’t see myself as a militant vegan. Sure, I think the world would be a better place if everybody started eating (more) plant-based foods and reduced or diminished their animal products intake, but I understand that that transition isn’t easy. One of the things I like to do therefore, is show meat-eaters how tasty…
