Beet and seitan burger

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, so I had to do something special :) 

So, I created a new burger recipe :))

This burger it's perfect as a traditional burger or wrapped in puff pastry like a mummy (just make sure that the pastry is vegan). It's really good with mustard, vegan mayo, ketchup or whatever sauce you prefer.

And I really think that the kids will love this one too because it's fun to eat a mummy any day of the year, not only on Halloween. 

And it's also pretty easy to make, because you don't have to cut anything in small pieces. Just toss everything in a food processor and press on. 

I just love to make recipes that taste like I cooked all day, but I actually need just a little time to make them :)

Let's go to the recipe now! 

Coconut pudding cups

Halloween is fast approaching and this is one of my favorite holidays!
I tried to make something special for this day, but my skills with a pastry bag are limited for now :)) I promise to practice more for the future projects!
Anyway, this is my favorite pudding recipe and it goes really well just by it's own, or in a pastry shell. And if you are skilled with a pastry bag, you can make something really festive with some food coloring and this pudding.
But keep in mind that this is a dessert, and it's to be indulged in moderation :)
Ok, enough for now. Let's go to the recipe!

Ingredients:

Chickpea flour omelette

If you used to love omelettes and scrambles before you went vegan, then I understand you.
I used to love them too. And I love them still. But now I don't use eggs for my scrambles and omelettes. I use tofu or chickpea flour. Because I get the same feeling of comfort food (ok, not the exact same taste, but the feeling is the same) without the cruelty, fat and the heavy feeling in the stomach.
If you ask me, I love this way of life a lot! I still have foods that I loved before, but I don't have the guilt and all those heavy feeling as before. Which is so much better!
Ok, I think that this is enough rambling for just one post :)
Let's go to the recipe now

Ingredients:

Pumpkin chickpea pancakes

Because the fall means pumpkin for me (you already know this if you saw my last post) I love cooking and experimenting with pumpkin.
I also love chickpea flour. And for a high protein, oil free and healthy breakfast I made these pancakes one day when I had some freshly made pumpkin puree and a need for something different :)
They are fluffy, really tasty and perfect for fall due to the pumpkin and the warming spices :)

Let's go to the recipe now!

Ingredients (2 servings):

Fluffy pumpkin bread (EN/ RO)

It's the pumpkin season!
Ok, this season comes with some annoying things too, like cold weather, rain, end of summer... But guys, PUMPKIN! and apples, and baking!
Here is already pretty cold, but now I have an excuse to use my oven and bake some things :)
Like pumpkin bread!
This version is fluffy but still moist, oil free and refined sugar free.
I used peanut butter as my fat and unrefined brown sugar as sweetener.
It's perfect for breakfast, desert or as a snack, with some nut or seed butter... Yum!
Let's see how this delicious bread is made!
