Been wanting to make lemon merangue pies for ages now. Finally got round to it. I basically used the recipe from Lazy Cat Kitchen. Thank you Ania! I love her recipes as they always actually work!! I wont write out the whole recipe this time – just go to her page – but I did …
These Chocolate Cupcakes are part of my getting to grips with baking while carrying on trying recipes from the Rouxbe Essential Desserts course my wife Karen did a while ago. There is so much more to baking – understanding flours and yeasts and acidity!!! I can really recommend the Rouxbe courses! Anyway – back to …
I made theses Chicken Seitan Skewers a while ago but never got round to posting the recipe. The original inspiration for this came from this recipe from Sam at “itdoesnttastelikechicken”. Just to make sure, I made them again yesterday. The original recipe uses silken tofu, but this time I used twice frozen firm tofu which …
I have never done much baking, let alone vegan hot cross buns. Take my hat off to people who bake. It is never as easy as it looks. I took me 3 attempts to get these right. The first attempt I managed to kill off the yeast, and in the second I over-kneaded the dough, …

Crème Caramel is another of these classic French desserts. Having perfected Crème Brulee, I thought this would be easy. Not so – had a few unsuccessful attempts but finally came up with this one. Check out the notes at the end of the post. Here at Green and Vegan we try to make food that …
This Vegan Rice Paper Bacon makes a great tasty snack. And pretty easy to make. I found several videos on You Tube with vegan bacon recipes, and my recipe is based on the one by Brett Cobley. Check out his video. A couple of differences – Instead of soy sauce I used Bragg’s Aminos as …
I have been wanting to try making vegan eggs for a long time now! It look so impossible that I kept putting it off. I found this recipe on the “exceedingly vegan” blog. It was actually very easy, and worked! So often I find a recipe on line and it actually does not work. So …
