Whole Food Plant-Based Recipes. No Oil. No Sugar. Simple and Clean.
I’ve been preparing a lot of lazy meals these days. Lazy or time-saving for me means skipping peeling and chopping onions and garlic and instead using onion flakes and granulated garlic as well as preparing one-pot stews and curries that take max 15-20 minutes to cook. I decided to make […]
Asparagus-mushroom curry with chickpeas makes a quick, easy, delicious and comforting meal that is also vegan, plant-based, oil-free and gluten free. I haven’t posted a savory recipe for a while, because there is always so much sweet going on. However, a few weeks back, when I needed to fix a […]
I’ve made pumpkin stew with chickpeas, cauliflower, tomato sauce and spinach before, but never tried with just two main ingredients. I actually got inspired by the best vegan buffet I’ve ever encountered – Miobio Vegan Buffet in Valencia where we had several great lunches. On one occasion a deliciously sweet […]
I prefer quick and filling lunches that I could also eat in smaller portions. That’s why I concentrate on legumes and starches when preparing lunch. There’ll be just a bit of veggies to accompany beans or lentil stew. I have my huge salad bowl with plenty of veggies for dinner. […]
This green lentil stew with tomatoes is a perfect flavourful and hearty go-to meal. Prepare it in a bigger batch and your lunches for the week are covered. You’ll only need 10 ingredients, one pot and 30 minutes of your time. Lentil stews are my favourite thing for lunch lately. […]
I like to make lentil stews for lunch, but suddenly my 5-year-old got tired of lentils and asked for a meal made of beans. So I made chickpea-red bean stew. I left the base the same – onion, garlic, celery, and carrot. I added potatoes for starch and corn for […]
Kids are going back to schools and kindergartens. Wondering what to pack your kid for lunch? I’ve always provided my 5-year-old’s lunch boxes and snack for kindergarten and I make it super-easy. You can do it too! My kid’s kindergarten is very accommodating, i.e. the food can be stored in […]
Veggie stew or wok (I’m nor sure what would be the best term for the dish as the veggies are cut in wok-style, but cooked covered) is one of these easy and quick recipes that come handy when you are really hungry or in a hurry. The first time I […]
Usually when we eat lunch at home, I prefer to prepare something very quick, like steamed broccoli, boiled or oven-baked beetroot and some canned beans or red lentils. This Sunday when we got home, I discovered we had run out of the quick fixes and, as here in Barcelona all […]
This hearty pumpkin lentil risotto is a perfectly comforting dish in a cold autumn evening! Topped with vegan Parmesan, it is just perfect! I needed a nice hearty dish that would use some pumpkin for the next meal plan. As I’ve made so much pumpkin soup lately, I decided to […]
Who wouldn’t like a nice and spicy curry? Lately, curry has become one of my favourite foods, which I prepare from all possible and impossible ingredients and serve with whole grain pasta, rice, raw buckwheat or quinoa. You can really let your imagination fly with curries! Please let me know […]
This vegan ricotta biscuit tart is a wonderfully healthy way to celebrate festivities like Midsummer’s Day or for July 4. I got the idea for this ricotta-biscuit tart when my 4-year-old and his mates at kindergarten prepared the classic version of the tart with dairy and white-flour-sugar biscuits for Mother’s […]
I've been into healthy eating for many years, but developed a more profound interest in nutrition and related diseases when I started reading The China Study and other special books on nutrition. After being in real estate and hospitality business for more than 10 years I decided to totally change my path to spread the word about healthy and sustainable nutrition and lifestyle. I am also a Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate graduate from eCornell. I hope you enjoy my whole food plant-based recipes and practical tips!
