Today was such an exciting day! If you follow me on Facebook, you have seen that I organized a workshop that happened tonight.

Zucchini Raviolis, perfect for the BBQ!
Zucchini are so good right now and super cheap too! That’s why I went a little overboard at the farmers’ market and bought a ton. I thought I would try making something summery that would be perfect grilled on a BBQ.

Chocolate Frosted Doughnuts
Yesterday some of my students did their English ministry exam. Stressful times! As a result, I have spent most of my breaks today correcting at school.

Vegan Chocolate Tiramisu
I have to admit, I only had tiramisu once before going vegan. For some reason, however, I was craving the smooth layers of chocolate cake and cream. So I made some chocolate cake, thick vegan cream, a rum-chocolate dipping liquid, and here you go! Here is what you need for the cake: 120g gluten freeContinue reading “Vegan Chocolate Tiramisu”
Simple Fruit Leather
I really hate to throw away food. When I see that the produce I bought is getting old and will go bad soon, I try to transform it to extend its life to avoid waste. I have to say, however, that meal planing reduces and often eliminates waste as you are only buying what youContinue reading “Simple Fruit Leather”
