Raw Mango Cheesecake
Just before the holidays, my partner and I had some friends over for a BBQ dinner. I decided to make a mango-based dessert because they’re at their peak in Australia right now. And because it’s been so warm out (sorry Polar Vortex sufferers), a raw mango cheesecake seemed like the perfect treat. I’ve been a … Read more
Almost Raw Cookie Dough Balls
I’ve been making my Healthy Breakfast Cookies every week since moving into our new apartment. They’re healthy little bites of goodness – the perfect little snack to pack up when we’re on the go. But I’ve been using chocolate chips instead of raisins lately, and that little tweak inspired me to modify my Almost Raw … Read more
Quick & Easy Vegan Cheesecake
The holidays are so crazy, aren’t they? From wrapping-up work projects for the end of the calendar year, to finalizing gift shopping and decorating the house, there is often little time to do anything else. Even though I had plenty of notice for a holiday get together with friends a couple weeks ago, I left … Read more
Maple Spiced Pecans
I was putting a Christmas gift basket together for my boss this week and I thought it would be nice to include something homemade. These maple spiced pecans are just the right amount of sweet and spicy, and once packaged up in a cute jar with some holiday trim, they make really easy personal gifts. … Read more
Vegan Pumpkin Parfaits
Happy Canadian Thanksgiving everyone! I’m posting this recipe for those of you looking for a quick Thanksgiving recipe idea. The bonus is that it’s healthy enough that you could get away with eating it for breakfast. Can you say win-win? I got the idea for this recipe from a magazine years ago, and if you’ve … Read more
Puffed Quinoa Peanut Butter Balls
These puffed quinoa peanut butter balls are the perfect crunchy (yet healthy) treat. They can be ready to eat in under 30 minutes, and they’re naturally gluten-free! I picked up some puffed quinoa at the health food store this weekend and decided to make a little treat with it. I have a deep and unending … Read more
Carrot-Praline Cake (or Cupcakes)
With all the excitement of participating in the Vegan Month of Food, I sort of forgot to celebrate the one-year anniversary of Vegangela.com. Working on this blog has been such an enriching experience for me – and even if I were to stop blogging tomorrow, I know that my life has been forever changed by the incredible … Read more
Raw Vegan Pumpkin Cheesecake
So many amazing-looking pumpkin recipes have come out as part of the Vegan Month of Food. Are you all pumpkined-out though? I hope not, because I have this “rawsome” contribution! This recipe combines traditional pumpkin pie and my decent discovery of raw vegan cheesecake. Even with the cashews and coconut oil, it’s still a lot … Read more
Gluten-Free Chocolate Banana Muffins
I realized today that I had two very ripe bananas that I needed to use ASAP. With the price of bananas in Sydney hovering around $13/kilo at the moment, there’s no way that any banana in this house can go to waste. Being a temporary ex-pat, I have limited kitchen supplies. I don’t own a … Read more
Peanut Butter & Jelly Bars
When I came across this recipe over at Vegan Good Things back in May, I very swiftly bookmarked it. Anything with peanut butter in it is pretty much awesome in my books. But PB&J? That’s even better. I never thought that it would take me this long to get around to making this recipe, but … Read more
Almost Raw Coconut + Apricot Oat Balls
I’m not really someone who craves sweets, but last week, I got a craving that I just couldn’t shake. In particular, I was craving something coconut-y, but didn’t want to go to the effort of making macaroons or cookies. Ideally, it would be healthy and wouldn’t require turning on the oven. Thankfully, I had a … Read more
Vegan Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
These are the chocolate chip cookies that my mom made for me growing up – and it’s also one of the first recipes that I ever veganized, waaaaay back in high school. At the time, I susbstituted vegan margarine for the butter, and because the recipe didn’t call for any milk or eggs, it was … Read more
Raw Banana Mango Ice Cream in Chocolate Cups
My little mama is so cute. I had sent her the link to Veggie Weggie’s Banana Mango Ice Cream in Chocolate Cups a while back, and she surprised me by making them for me when I was visiting last month. She was already a big fan of raw vegan banana ice cream, and was already making … Read more
Vegan Caramel Pecan Ice Cream Dessert
All my friends and family back home in Ottawa and Toronto have been saying how warm it’s been there lately. I’ll be there in a couple weeks myself and I really hope that the weather holds-up. I’m especially looking forward to those long hot summer evenings. Sydney has amazing weather all year round, but the … Read more
(Almost Raw) Vegan Key Lime Cheesecake
This rich yet refreshing, almost raw, gluten-free and 100% vegan key lime cheesecake is the perfect summer treat. This recipe is based on Allyson @ Manifest Vegan’s Pretty Darn Raw Vegan Cheesecake. Ever since making my first raw vegan cheesecake, I’ve been thinking about making a key lime version. The slight coconut flavor and taste … Read more
Rhubarb Crumble / Crisp & Ginger Ice Cream
This vegan rhubarb crumble and ginger ice cream recipe is another one that originated from the LCBO’s Food & Wine magazine. I earmarked the recipe a while ago in the hopes of eventually veganizing it, and I’m really happy that I finally got around to doing it last week. The ginger ice cream nicely compliments … Read more
Apple & Plum Crumble / Crisp
As you may have read in my Roasted Fresh Tomato Soup post, I’ve been going a little overboard at the farmers’ market lately. I never used to make the effort to get up early and go to farmer’s markets, but I have to say that it has since become something that I really look forward … Read more
