Two beans stir fry with a peanut sauce

To be honest, most of the time I'm in a hurry, and even if I love to cook, sometimes I want something that's ready in less than 30 minutes but still delicious, nutritious and quite healthy.
Bonus points if the recipe is cheap, oil free and asian inspired because I love those type of meals :)
This recipe is healthy, flavorful and perfect for any weather. The sauce gives a really nice flavor and creaminess and compliment the simplicity of the veggies...
In my opinion, you should really try this recipe. Let me know if you like it :)

Ingredients:

Chickpea flour pumpkin muffins

Because it's so cold here, all I want is to curl on a couch, covered with a blanket and eating pumpkin and pumpkin pie spiced foods.
And these muffins are perfect for this!
They are perfectly spiced, moist from the pumpkin, fluffy and they go really well by themselves, or with some coffee, plant milk, vegan yogurt, tea... The choice is only yours.
Seriously, everything pumpkin is delicious, but these muffins are not only healthy and oil free, but quite high in protein because of the whole wheat flour, chickpea flour and nut butter.
So they can be eaten for breakfast as well, because they're really satiating. And 2 or 3 muffins for breakfast sound quite good for me.
Also, they are pretty easy to make. You can use just a bowl and dump everything in there. Mix well, pour in muffin pan (lined with muffin liners if you don't have a silicone one)
It's easy to make delicious vegan food, guys!

Ok, the recipe now:

Ingredients (makes about 16 muffins):

Basic seitan burger

I usually like to make more creative recipes, but sometimes a good, basic seitan burger with beans is perfect and it tastes amazing, even if it doesn't have beets or Gods know what my mind creates in the moment...
This burger recipe is tasty, easy to make and you can make it using a grater if you don't want to use a food processor.
They are also high in protein, flavorful, satisfying and oil free :)
The secret is in the spices, guys! You don't actually miss the meat, but the texture and the spice combo. You can always have the feeling if you want, just choose the right (cruelty free) ingredients :)

Ingredients (makes 10-12 patties):

Warming chickpea coconut curry

Here it's fall, and so cold that all I'm craving is warming and hearty food, like stews, chilies, curries soups and stuff like that.
And because I like experimenting in the kitchen I made my own rendition of a coconut curry that is hearty, pretty high in protein, oil free and really tasty.
It's not a traditional curry, but I know that at least a few other people besides me love it!
So it has to be good 😄 😉!
Jokes aside, even if this isn't a traditional curry, it is really warming and satisfying and it makes a really good dish for this weather.
The recipe is quite simple and easy to follow too 😊
You can make it in bigger batches and you can freeze it too. It keeps well in the fridge for 4-5 days (if you can resist as much without eating it all 😀)

Ingredients:

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:

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!

Ingredients (makes 1 loaf or 12 muffins):

Chickpea flour seitan

If you want yet another recipe for seitan, here you have one. I added some chickpea flour to this one for some added nutrition: some fiber, a little bit of lysine, because wheat gluten has too little. It's not a huge lysine quantity, but still...

So, I chose to bake my seitan this time, but you can boil it, steam it... Your choice. 

I love to eat it instead of a steak or a roast, with a side salad, or use it in sandwiches or wraps. Sometimes I use it is stir fry or other things. I have a stir fry recipe here, if you want to take a look:)

Lentil and TVP chili

If you like to meal prep, then this recipe is perfect!
It keeps well in the fridge for 4-5 days, you can freeze it...
If you don't want to use it for a meal prep, or you don't do that, then you can make only half or 1/3 of the recipe...
But believe me, it's really tasty, high in protein and quite healthy.

Ingredients:

Vegan french toast 3 ways

As I said before, I love french toast, and I didn't have it for a long time. For the first few months since I became vegan, actually...
Now I have 3 recipes for it :)

First recipe:  Flax french toast 

Coconut flour brownies

Since I became vegan I wanted to veganize a brownie recipe that is gooey in the middle, a little crisp on the outside... And doesn't have any oil or refined sugar.

And it had to taste really decadent and guilty, just like a non vegan brownie. 

After a few weeks, I present you a brownie that has all this traits: gooey, sweet, decadent, but without any oil or refined sugar added.

A few of my friends tried it and their reaction was priceless! They knew that it was vegan, because I told them, but couldn't believe it :)

If you want the recipe, just keep reading.
