Vegan sushi is something I never in my wildest dreams imagined I would make! But I did, and it worked very well. We served it as a starter at on of our pop-up dining events (check out our Green and Vegan FB page) a while back. A couple of people commented that it was the best …
Karen and I have always dreamed of hosting a vegan underground restaurant in our home. Where did this daft idea come from then? Long before we discovered raw and vegan food, we always enjoyed having dinner parties at home and entertaining with food. I just love being in the kitchen making things. Several years ago …
Aloe is our very own local superfood here in Cape Town/South Africa. They are hardy and easy to grow. Our one is doing wonderfully, in a pot on the patio. There are two types – the Vera and Ferox varieties. Ours is apparently Ferox. I use a couple of pieces of the flesh in our …
Raw Green Juice: There is nothing like starting the day with a fresh healthy Green Juice, so I thought it appropriate to start off my 2016 blogs with a green juice mixture. It’s also a fresh start from another aspect – I have just changed my blog platform over to WordPress. Which is also one …

The last posts were all prepared well in advance. I am now travelling, in betwixt and between, but happened to be in London at the time of …
Vegan Stir Fry Smoked Tempeh and vegan stir fry I seem to think stir fries were originally the domain of carnivores – it was a good way to quickly cook a meal. But our vegan stir fries are one of Karen’s favourite meals. I’m not going to give a specific recipe, as you can stir …

In this picture is vegan creem cheeze on beetroot toast, humus on onion bread and guacamole on onion bread. The spreads are …
Raw lime mousse with berries A very exciting time at the moment for me, and hopefully this blog. Yesterday we attended the 2014 London Vegfest at Kensington. This event is in it’s second year.
