  • Caesar Salad with Carrot Bacon

    Caesar Salad with Carrot Bacon

    I’ve been dreaming of creamy, delicious caesar dressing for a while. And there it was! I mixed to recipes from @nora_cooks_vegan and @thehiddenveggies. I don’t like the sharp taste of raw garlic, so I sautéed them gently before mixing. I served the dressing (yes – the dressing is the star here!) with Romaine lettuce, fried… Read more »


  • Summer Rolls

    Summer Rolls

    What better food for a hot day than summer rolls? Vermicelli rice noodles, red cabbage, alfalfa sprouts, mango, salted peanuts and green soy beans, all wrapped in a thin rice paper.

  • Noodle Stir Fry with Peanut Sauce

    Noodle Stir Fry with Peanut Sauce

    This is like mash-up of Pad Thai and satay. Good? Yes, indeed! Especially if you like peanuts, and who doesn’t? You can add any veggies you like to the stir fry, just make sure to fry them quickly on high heat so they don’t go too soft. Start with the sauce, so the stir fry… Read more »


  • Sweet Potato Dip

    Sweet Potato Dip

    In Australia, we had a delicious sweet potato dip. When we got back to Sweden, I tried to recreate it. The result was even creamier and 100% plantbased. It’s a great addition to any kind of bowl, or a simple pasta dish just tossed together with warm spaghetti and some fresh baby spinach and basil.… Read more »
