Of all the meals, I find vegan lunch recipes the hardest to find. I’m often after a quick and easy lunch recipe, but I find that the majority of traditional foods tend to revolve around a meat, cheese and salad sandwich. The other option, of course, is a salad. While I love a good salad, …

This calcium rich chia yoghurt is a great recipe to make sure your kids get their calcium. One of the big questions that you get asked about when you cut out dairy is where will you get your calcium? For new vegans, this can be a difficult question to answer because traditionally we are only…
I have been craving burgers for a while now, but not just a veggie burger. I was in the mood for something richer and more like the hamburgers I used to have when I ate meat. So I decided I needed to come up with a recipe for good, “meaty” vegan burger patties. I was…
