This Cheesy Pumpkin Spread is vegan and makes a great option for lunch for busy mums. I find lunch to be the hardest meal to cut animal products from. Breakfast has an array of options like toast, smoothies, granola, and beans and tofu substitute in relatively easily for dinner. Lunch, however, seems to take a…
This Vegan Mac and Cheese recipe is a great recipe to sneak some hidden veggies in for your kids – especially some of those veggies that are harder for them to eat, like zucchini, spinach and cauliflower. There was once a time that I didn’t actually know what Mac and Cheese was. I used to…
This smoothie is a fun breakfast alternative for if you want something a bit different. This vegan breakfast smoothie gives you a carrot cake flavoured smoothie at the bottom, topped with a delicious cashew lemon icing.

The best part is there’s no marinating, so you can have these anytime…
These delicious Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Protein Balls are completely oil free, and low sugar. I was in the mood for something sweet for afternoon tea, so I came up with this recipe. My favourite type of protein ball is raw cookie dough, but I find a lot of them use oils like vegan butter…
I love smoothies. I find them to be one of the best tools for getting food into fussy kids. You can load them up with veggies, and as long as you make them chocolate, kids will wolf them down. Well, that’s my experience with my kids, at least… When my five year old was younger,…
