Cauliflower rice/feta salad with corn, tomatoes, kalamata olives, pine nuts & sumac.
This Vegan Artichoke Spinach Dip is a party favorite and one of my personal favorites. Instead of using sour cream and cream cheese, this recipe uses cashews and lemon juice to create that familiar texture and taste. Before we went vegan, Amelia and I used to order artichoke spinach dip while sitting at the bar. It tasted great, but I never liked the greasiness of it and each bite was accompanied by a little pang of guilt from the spike it gave to my cholesterol. This vegan artichoke spinach dip is guilt free since vegan food doesn’t contain cholesterol. Serve with tortilla chips, pita chips, sliced veggies (carrots, red pepper, cucumber) or a baguette.

Yesterday for Easter I made the most simple platter to share with everyone. I used falafels and vegan kebbeh made from @oasis_au as well as regular hummus and beetroot hummus by @obela_au (best hummus on the planet) also threw in some pitted olives, sun-dried tomatoes and pita bread for dipping. If you’re ever running low on time and need to prepare something for an event, a platter like this is a great example as it only took me 15 minutes to make including cooking time and it’s the kind of food everyone will enjoy. Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter and is overdosing on chocolate 🍫🐰 #myfood #vegan #plantbased
Cafeteria-Style Pasta Salad
You know that pasta salad they have on every salad bar in America? Well, this is how you make it.
• 1 (12 ounce) package of rainbow rotini
• 2 cups of broccoli florets, cut into bite sized pieces
• 1 can of garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
• 1 can of corn, drained and rinsed
• 1 tomato, diced
• 1 cup of prepared Italian dressing
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• salt and pepper to taste
Toss the corn and beans into a colander, rinse, then add broccoli on top. Boil pasta and drain in the same colander with the veggies. Let sit for 5 minutes, this softens up the broccoli. Put the corn, beans, broccoli, and pasta in a large bowl with the remaining ingredients. Toss and chill for at least 3 hours.

Hubby and I are sick at home. I felt like cooking. Had some filo dough laying around in my freezer for months. It was annoying me so I turned it into the above pictured deliciousness!
❇️ VEGAN & OIL FREE SPINACH PIE ❇️
Night before: defrost approx. 500g of frozen spinach
Defrost filo dough (this takes longer than you might think…)
Make filling: Steam sauté in water and soy sauce: 1 onion, 4-5 cloves garlic, 1 red bell pepper until softened and browned. Toast pine nuts and add. Add sliced black olives, capers, chopped dried tomatoes. Basil. Pepper. Nooch. Mix with spinach. Add 1 cup chickpeas and mash slightly. Add 1-2 T tahini for creaminess.
Wrap stuffing in filo dough and glaze dough w almond milk. Sprinkle w ground coriander. Bake 20 min @ 200C.
Made a layered dip for a party. Mashed chili beans Salsa Cauliflower cheese sauce Guac Olives Spring onions I was in a hurry and for some reason didn't check the guac's ingredients. IT HAD CHEESE IN IT. WHO THE HELL PUTS CHEESE IN GUACAMOLE. it's a week ago and I'm still pissed about it. I'm not 100% vegan but dairy is literally added to EVERYTHING.
CHICKPEA SPINACH PIE WITH BERBERE SPICE
Ooehhh! I like!
This was so epic and the picture does it no justice at all bc it was so delicious and this is the last piece packed for my hubby’s lunch aaaaaah
✳️SAVORY PUMPKIN PIE✳️
I used the white bean and cashew quiche filling (search my blog #quiche). Lined a pie dish w vegan dough, filled it with thinly sliced butternut squash rounds and topped w the CREAMY vegan quiche filling.
All my meat lovin’ family members loved it. My life has a purpose. Lol
Healthy buffet idea
VEGAN WALNUT LENTIL ROLLS
As you can see on the picture, they were a hit!
Cooked green lentils with shallots, dried mushrooms, walnuts and some spices (ground coriander, paprika, cumin, nutmeg, black pepper). After cooking I added soy sauce, ketchup, apple butter, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, tomato paste. Also as a binder: psyllium husk. Blended and let thicken in fridge. (Now in itself the filling was a bit boring so I hadn’t expected them to be very exciting.)
Next day I took the filling and made rolls with vegan puff pastry. Serve with sweet chili sauce.
In the end everyone liked them, and that included some serious omnivores who even preferred these rolls to sausage rolls! Shocking! 😱
