VEGAN RECIPES, FINDS & LIFESTYLE
This one pot minestrone soup is such a great recipe. It is two of our favourite things - comforting and easy clean up!

This Swedish meatball fettuccine recipe is inspired by the Swedish meatballs served at Ikea! Before we went vegan we used to love the meatballs at Ikea. They were a nice change up from the traditional Italian meatballs and tomato sauce. Swedish meatballs are served with gravy and sometimes a cranberry type sauce to dip. These [...]

Vegan French onion soup was a must make for us as soon as fall hit! Growing up my mom used to make me French onion soup during the colder seasons. It was only fitting that I made a vegan version of my own! I don't know if I can put it into words but, do [...]
These portobello mushroom steaks are so perfect for a holiday or fancy meal! We have been attracted to portobello mushrooms lately because of their deep earthy flavour and meaty texture. Portobellos contain a lot of moisture so we used a bake and pan fry method to get most of that water content out of the [...]
This vegan zucchini lasagna turned out so delicious! We have been trying to come up with ways to limit our carb intake. Not that carbs are bad, but there are health benefits to limiting them from time to time! I've been wanting to make a lasagna recently and came up with this no noodle version. [...]
With the cooler weather, this vegan lobster chowder is the perfect comfort meal to make! We always feel very happy with ourselves when we can recreate a classic seafood dish using only vegan ingredients. To mimic the texture of lobster, we used oyster mushrooms!
