Marinated Satay Tempeh served Two ways
Ok I admit it, this Gluten Free Aussie Vegan is guilty of being a little bit obsessed with Tempeh lately. I’d never eaten it up until a few weeks ago when I first tried it in a Vegan Gyro I made. I loved the marinade I used in that recipe, loved the flavour and texture of the meaty Tempeh so I was curious to see what other marinades would work well with it and stumbled across a ripper of a recipe for Satay Tempeh. The original recipe just had the Tempeh by itself but I had thought it would be cool if I could try it in a Summer…

Hummingbird Cake Recipe – Vegan, Dairy Free & Gluten Free
So one of my most favourite cakes to make before I became Vegan was the Hummingbird Cake. For the uninitiated, this is a moist, delicious cake that has mashed banana and crushed pineapple in it with a cream cheese frosting. Making hummingbird cake gluten free was pretty easy. (I was diagnosed with Coeliac and was eating gluten free for 7 years before I went Vegan). However, when I went Vegan I didn’t bother to make this for awhile, mostly because at the time I didn’t have access to a good Vegan Cream Cheese where I lived and also just because I forgot about it. Recently though I was super excited…

Split Pea & Potato Soup – Vegan and Gluten Free
SOUP!! Funnily enough I’ve never been big on soups over the years. I never chose to have them too much. I think because when I was a kid my parents were more about canned soup rather then homemade soup and canned soup never did anything for me. So I never bothered as an adult. Well up until a couple of years ago when I realised that I LOVE homemade soup, just not canned premade. So then I started to experiment a little more and when I turned vegan I discovered a recipe for split pea soup. Up until maybe 2 years ago I’d never had split peas before. After…

Potato Lentil Fritters
The other day I was in the mood for something savoury, crunchy and crispy…so I jumped on google and scoured through recipes until I found one I wanted to try. THERE IT WAS, yummy potato fritters. So I set to work making it and the end result? Delicious of course 🙂 I must apologise in advance that the photos & video are not as sharp and clear as they could be. I need to purchase a good quality camera in the near future but for now I just take photos & record from my computer and phone which are not the best quality. Improvements will be made as I…
