hey everyone :)
so lately i ate a tons of pancakes, amongst others because i got a pancake pan for christmas. in this wonderful pan you can make 7 small, perfect pancakes at once! therefore i had a lot of time to create a new recipe with less ingredients and shorter, easyer instructions. because especially in the morning i am happy about a low prep time :D

ingredients:

* 130g buckwheat flour

* 300ml water

* 1 to 3tbs unrefined cane sugar

simply mash the banana with the water. stir in baking powder, sugar and flour and blend well. add the dough to the pan and bake them from both sides on low heat. serve with your favorite fruits and sauce &enjoy <3

indian curry

hey everyone :)
hope you all had a merry christmas and some stress-free days! 
today i'm showing you an indian curry. the chickpeas are quite unusual for a curry but i crave for them a lot lately and i really liked the combination.
so let's start guys:

don't wonder about the amount of leek,

my scale was broken and i'm soo

bad at projecting weight O.o

ingredients:

* 10cm leek
* 2 bell peppers
* 1 orange
* 1/2 mango
* thumb ginger
* 2tbs curry powder
* 200g chicpeas
* 5tbs coconut milk
* kukumar
* pepper

fill the bottom of your pot with six inches of water. when it starts boiling add the cutted leek and the bell peppers. boil the water away and add the juice of the orange and the mango. after 5 minutes add the ginger, all the spices and the coconut milk. if you want it to be a bit more liquid add as much water as you like. after some more minutes fill in the rinsed chicpeas. 
serve with rice &enjoy <3

dumplings with mushroom sauce

hey everyone :)
some of you may have noticed that it's not too far from christmas eve anymore *screech* so i thought it would be appropriate to share a christmas eve dinner recipe with you.
this is my first christmas as a 100% vegan so i didn't really had an idea what to eat at christmas just because it was a question that i never really thought about. i don't like potato dumplings and i also don't want to use replacement products, i still feel like this is beneath my dignity. i mean we are creative enough to create a vegan christmas dinner that consists of more than just soy products, right? and of course i want my family and friends to realise that it's possible to have a delicious, festive meal without using animal products.
so i started to experiment in the kitchen and that's what came out:

just in case you're wondering: i used lemon balm

as decoration because i sadly ran out of

parsley :D 

 ingredients dumplings:

* 200g gf bread
* 125nl rice milk (or any other sort of vegan milk)
* 1 no egg (or other egg replacement products)
* 2 medium-sized onions
* parsley
* pepper
* nutmeg
* salt (optional)

at first it's really imoprtant to know that you have to prepare this recipe one day advance because the bread needs to be really dry. i used a glutenfee ciabatta bread by "schär" which you put in the ofen or the toaster before you eat it, so i preapared it as it's said on the packing. after that there is nothing left to do but waiting for the next day. now you cut the dry bread into little cubes, put them into a bowl and add the milk and the spices and stir well. cut the onions and brown them slightly in a bit of oil. put the onions and the parsley into the bowl and stir again, then let it brew for about half an hour.
after the 30 minutes you knead the mass until it sticks together as one. now take a din a4 sized piece of cling film, place a roll of dough in the lower third of the cling film. furl it and put the ends in rollers as you would pack a bonbon and secure it by knoting a twine aroud it. make sure the knot is right next to the end of the dumpling roll. if you want to make round dumplings simply form balls out of the dough and wrap them into cling film the same way.
place the rolls or balls into hot water, it shouldn't boil anymore so they just brew on a low heat. depending on the size take them out after 15 to 25 minutes.
as the last step you slice them up and if you like it you can brown them a bit in the pan like i did with a few of them.


ingredients mushroom sauce:

* 800g mushrooms
* 70ml rice milk
* 3tbs flour

cut the mushrooms into small pieces and roast them in a pan with a bit of oil. if you don't want to any fat just fill the bottom of your pan or pot with boiling water and add the mushrooms. just wait a few minutes and a moment before they get burnt, deglaze the pan with rice milk. sift the flour into the pan and stir well. after a while the sauce will get a creamy texture. by adding more flour or liquid (milk or water) you can change the texture until the sauce is the way you like it. 
at christmas eve i will eat this with red cabbage, and that's already it! dish up&enjoy <3

french toast

hey everyone :)
this is my vegan "french toast" recipe, i don't know if there is already  a special word for it like vrench toast (see what i did there #socreative) but anyhow, i really really like it although i've been sceptical. before i became vegan, i've never been eating sweet french toast, only hearty, so i couldn't really imagine it to be nice this way as well, but now i love it!

ingredients:

* gluten free bread
* 2 bananas
* 100ml rice milk
* blueberry soy yoghurt & some more bananas (optional, not needed for the frenchtoast)

for making french toast it's important that the bread is hard, you can use old bread but you can also toast it or put it in the oven until it's crispy. in a bowl mash the bananas with the rice milk and dip the bread into the mixture until it absorbs some of it. now place the bread into a pan (if it's not coated heat up some oil in it first) and fry it on low heat until they are crispy and brown. 
For this version of french toast i mixed some bananas  and blueberries with some blueberry soy yoghurt (the first one i tried besides the natural one, sooo good!) and dipped the bread into the yoghurt smoothie. but i also like them with some berries or mangos, that's totally up to you. in any case place the french toast and your chosen side dish on your plate & enjoy <3

mashed rice flakes

hey everyone :)
so today i'm going to present you my newest everyday breakfast. i just love it soo much and you can combine it with every fruit you want and it's always delicious! 
it all started when maja made me some of these awsome rice flakes for breakfast. I was addicted immediately and now i'm eating it literally every morning. forgive me, smoothies, i still love you from afar.

i love this combination of warm pulp, hot 

fruits and cinnamon, perfect for this cold

and windy weather.

i really can't wait for christmas anymore,

i want to go on a christmas market and

listen to christmas songs all day long!

ingredients:

* 70g rice flakes
* 100ml water
* 80 ml rice milk
* cinnamon (about 1/3 teaspoon)
* 50g raspberries
* 1 banana

in a small pot heat up the flakes with the water and rice milk until it reaches your prefered texture. now add the cinnamon and the fruits. i used frozen raspberries and heated them up because i love hot raspberries. but as i said before you can eat this pulp with every fruit you like. if you want you can also add some agave syrup. eat as long as it's still hot & enjoy <3

dangerous yellow lentils soup

hey everyone :)
finally a new blogpost, so sorry for beeing off for such a long time!
but anyway, i had a sleepover with my vegan bae maja where she helped me creating some layout stuff for the blog and of course we also had to eat something. so we created a new recipe that we want to share with you guys!
it was very extempored and i dont have the exact indications of ingredients but it will work this way as well i guess.

l

look at the colours, look at them *_*

while we added some herbs to the soop, a little 

splash of hot soup savaged my arm and i got 

burned very very badly and my arm nearly 

fell off, not pushing it!!!

ingredients:

* 1 big garlic clove
* 1 big red onion
* thumb of ginger
* coriander
* parsley
* 350g yellow lentils
* 10 savoy cabbage leaves+branchs

cook the lentils and the branchs of the savoy for 15 minutes, add garlic, onion and ginger and simmer for five more minutes. grab your hand mixer and purée until you have a noce creamy texture. cut the savoy leaves into pieces and add with the coriander and parsley. simmer it for about 8 minutes, then fill into bowls &enjoy <3

meringue cake

hey everyone :)
i've been craving for something sweet lately hehe :D
also i wanted to use my orgran no egg and i haven't been trying it for meringue yet :)

vegan food, but this one went down 

ver well ;)

ingredients:

* 2 bananas
* 100g oats
* 40g amaranth
* 100g puffed rice

pineapple smoothie

hey everyone :)
a friend asked me to upload a pineapple smoothie recipe, so this is for you sassi :D <3

colourful soy yogurt muesli

hey everyone :)
i am so excited to show the following recipe, it's so beautiful and delicious! :o
the perfect combination haha :D doesn't always apply to my food O.o
i had some soy yogurt left and played around a bit with it as a smoothie alernative :)
so here is what happened :D

i whish bananas would be as white as soy yogurt,

then all of my smoothies would be this 

bright-coloured :o

i think this is the first time i eat something

cereal-like since i became vegan :D

ingredients:

* 250g soy yogurt
* 2 kakis
* 100g berries (i used a frozen mix with blackberries, currants, raspberries and blueberries)
* 4tbs oats
* 3tbs amaranth
* 3tbs puffed rice
* 1tsp agave syrup

at first cover a baking tray with baking paper and add the oats, amaranth and puffed rice and trickle the syrup over the whole tray. place the baking tray in the oven at 180C for 12 minutes. 
put 30ml of water, the berries and 100g soy yogurt into the mixer and blend until smooth. fill into a jar and save some tablespoons in a small cup. 
get the "cereals" out of the oven and put 1 tablespoon of the mixture into the jar. the third layer are 50g of the soy yogurt (pure). after cleaning the mixer fill in 30ml of water, 100g yogurt and the kakis. fill into the jar too. now simply put everything that's left on top - finished :) to be honest, after taking the pictures i dumped everything into a large bowl, much easier to eat :D 
so, no matter how you present this beauty: serve & enjoy <3

asian wok vegetables

hey everyone :)
i really really like asian food, whether it is sushi, miso soup, sticky rice or wok *_*
lately i've been cooking  wok vegeatbles with some friends and i tried to make something near it. 
although i don't even have a wok *cough cough* :D

i didn't want to eat rice, so i made some asian 

rice noodles :) they are super delicious, but

i have difficulties to eat them properly :D

ingredients:

* 1 onion
* 1 thumb ginger
* 2 bell peppers
* 4 carrots
* 2 green onions
* 1tbs vegan white wine vinegar
* 2tbs soy sauce 
* 2tbs water
* 1tsp avage syrup
* 1/2tsp lemon grass
* dash pepper

in a pot roast the chopped onion and ginger, until they become lightly brown. 
cut the bell peppers and carrots into thin stripes (i used a mandolin slicer, ways easier than cutting them by hand) and add them to the pot. you have to stir a lot, so nothing storches and the taste can dispere. after two minutes add all the other ingredients, the green onions cut in small slices. let it simmer for 10 more minutes. eat with rice noodles or sticky rice & enjoy <3

sticky brownies

hey everyone :)
it's my brothers birthday tomorrow and i decided to bake him a nice cake or something like that, although he is still very skeptical about the whole vegan thing :D 
some days ago i tried the "100 calorie chocolate cake" by "chocolate covered katie" (by the way if you don't know her, check out her blog, it's amazing *_*) together with one of my baes ;) but there is too much peanutbutter in it for me, so i changed the recepie at some points :)

if you don't mind, you can add some 

peanut butter after baking the brownies,

they go perfectly together :)

ingredients:

* 150g oatfloor 
* 6tbs cacao
* 100g cane sugar
* 1tbs agave syrup
* 7tbs soy yogurt
* 100ml rice milk

just mix everything together until there are no lumps anymore. cover a baking tin with baking paper and fill in the dough. place in the preheated oven at 270C for 10 minutes, then at 160C for another 10 minutes. get out of the baking tin and let cool down for some minutes. cut into big slices & enjoy <3
