ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY

1 August 2019 by Lisette Kreischer Leave a Comment

This month we have been loading our recipe database with hot, roasted, juicy and grilled vegan food for ONE YEAR now! Wow! And it is also almost one year already since our book MAN.EAT.PLANT. got published. We can definitely say that we made many people very happy and belly filled and helped many to upgrade their plant powered cooking skills.



So why did two woman wrote a book for men again? Well we, Maartje Borst and Lisette Kreischer, are both vegan, daughters and girlfriends. We are also both entrepreneurs and we have seen and learned during the last 18 years that the plant based kitchen, which we both so passionately love, is easier embraced by women than by men in general.

Whether that embrace comes from the desire to reduce animal suffering, support the environment or eat healthy, it is the women who mostly take the lead in this movement. But veganism is not a women’s movement. It is a movement for the animals, for the earth and for all people and one that offers answers to major worldly issues and a kitchen that can be brutally awesome without being brutal. Still many meat eating guys (not all!) consider vegan food, hippy food and think that vegans only eat salads, chia puddings and soy products. And although those foods can be part of the intake (and although this image fortunately is rapidly changing), there is so much more that the plant based kitch has to offer!

So we created a blog, an IG account and a book and we are looking forward to another year of sharing more delicious, bad ass, high flavoured and umami bombed recipes EVERY SINGLE WEEK in English and in Dutch via this platform. From breakfast to lunch, dinner to sweets.  YOU.NAME.IT, we will serve it. SO yeah we wanted to ask you TO NAME IT! Drop below what you would love to see veganised or are craving for! We would love to know.

The book is in Dutch. If you want to check it out, you can find it in the on- and offline bookstores. If you want some bad ass umami bombed vegan food. Check out our recipe index here.

However no recipe tomorrow, because…HOLIDAY! So till next week and for now have a great weekend!


EENJARIG BESTAAN!

Tussen alle gekte door vieren we deze maand het eenjarig bestaan van dit platform! Wow, een jaar alweer. En…ook is het bijna alweer een jaar geleden dat ons boek MAN.EAT.PLANT. verscheen. We kunnen nu inmiddels met zekerheid zeggen dat we heel veel mensen blij hebben gemaakt, buiken goed gevuld hebben en hebben geholpen bij het upgraden van velen hun plantaardige kooktalenten.


Maar wacht. Twee vrouwen die een boek voor mannen schrijven? Jazeker! Beiden zijn we veganist, dochter en vriendin van. Ook zijn we beiden ondernemer en hebben we de afgelopen jaren gezien en geleerd dat de plantaardige keuken, waar we zo hartstochtelijk verliefd op zijn, voornamelijk makkelijker door vrouwen dan door mannen wordt omarmd (in het algemeen).
 
Of die omarming nu komt vanuit het verlangen om dierenleed te verminderen, het milieu te ondersteunen of gezond te eten, het zijn de vrouwen die in deze beweging meestal het voortouw nemen. Maar veganisme is geen vrouwenbeweging. Het is een beweging voor de dieren, voor de aarde en voor alle mensen. Een te gekke beweging die antwoord biedt op grote wereldse vraagstukken en een keuken kent die gruwelijk lekker kan zijn zonder dat hij gruwelijk is. Toch krijgen we nog altijd opmerkingen over deze keuken van voornamelijk vleesetende heren over vegans en hippie eten en dat de vegan keuken zou bestaan uit salades, chia puddings en sojaproducten. En hoewel dit soort eten zeker onderdeel kan zijn van het vegan dieet heeft de plantaardige keuken natuurlijk veeeeeeeeel meer te bieden! Er valt hier trouwens nog veel meer achtergrond informatie over te delen, maar gelukkig verschijnt er binnenkort een uitgebreid artikel in The Optimist over ons echte en diepgaande verhaal achter MEP.
 
In ieder geval hebben we om die reden een blog, een IG-account en een boek gemaakt en kijken er naar uit nog een jaar vol te knallen met dit platform, waarop we iedere week in het Engels en Nederlands nog meer heerlijke, smaakvolle en met umami gebombardeerde recepten zullen delen. Van ontbijt tot lunch, diner en taart. YOU.NAME.IT, wij zullen het serveren.
 
Heb je het boek al in je handen? Zo niet, je kunt hem vinden in de on- en offline boekwinkels, natuurlijk via de shop van Lisette en natuurlijk bij Koffie ende Koeck.
 
En als op de hoogte wilt blijven van ons wekelijkse bombardement aan gewoon heel goed vegan eten, meld je dan aan voor onze nieuwsbrief (rechterbalk homepage) of volg ons op Instagram.
 
Kijk vooral en met name alvast even op onze goed gevulde recepten index…oh la la! Voor ieder wat wils!

Presenting a killer kitchen for which NO ONE has to be killed and EVERYONE gains!

We have a new cookbook 🔥 Written for Sam and he We have a new cookbook 🔥
Written for Sam and her pig companions @mymomsam. Because with the arrival of spring, we can almost smell the roasted coals again and what mostly lies on the grill above; the creatures that wanted so much to live. And that lights the fire in our hearts and gets us going. So Maartje pulled out her knives and Lisette her camera to fill the pages of... VLAM IN DE PLANT (Veg on fire). A happy book with an activist touch rich with delicious plant based recipes, a beautiful foreword by @karensoeters and an ode to dear Sam.

We discovered the cuisine of plants years ago and have been vegan for the animals for more than 38 years combined. It was a wonderful bonus that this way of life also turned out to be a lot better for the earth and ourselves. What we did not immediately expect was that this cuisine brought us huge taste explosions! We became big and strong on the power of plants and seduced and enticed by those wonderful flavours and textures. Meanwhile, we feel it is our mission to bring out the potential of this cuisine.

The popularity of BBQ has been skyrocketing for years and we felt it was time to once and for all say bye bye to the for many, boring image of veggies and take plants to great heights by putting them on fire. The plant based kitchen deserves the spotlight. And the BBQ is a great tool to make vegetables incredibly flavoursome. By cooking veg on the BBQ with the right spices, you enrich your kitchen with insane flavours and contribute to less suffering at the same time. So be tempted and seduced by the abundance of vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, mushrooms, weeds, fruits and herbs and fire up those plants.

Available to order now at all (online) bookstores in The Netherlands, via link in bio and @maartjeborst.

Vlam in de Plant could not have come about without Pig Sam, Karen Soeters, Stichting Melief, House of Animals, Diewertje van Wering and, of course, Kosmos Publishers. We are extremely grateful to all of them. ❤️🔥🙏🏼

FISH-FREE MEDITERRANEAN ORZO This delicious orzo FISH-FREE MEDITERRANEAN ORZO

This delicious orzo dish with roasted vegetables takes little time to make and is bursting with flavour. The tuna-like flavour of @goodcatchfoods Fish Free Tuna by our friend @dereksarno goes well with savoury flavour bombs like olives and capers, and the creamy orzo provides an excellent stage for this goodness.

Hungry already? Recipe now up on the blog (link in bio).

While we are up here we wanted to thank all of you who have been cooking from MAN.EAT.PLANT. We never expected this book to be such a hit, but it is. Three years in and the publisher is still re-printing and the other day MAN.EAT.PLANT. reached number 1 in the top 10 of Best Vegan Books. We are blown away by all the awesome compliments and seeing many of you enjoying the recipes. So again thank you so much!

Ok ok, it might be raining tofu & beans here in Th Ok ok, it might be raining tofu & beans here in The Netherlands, so maybe it is not the best time to fire up that BBQ and start roasting the hell out of those veggies. But we pray for sunshine and when that sun starts shining tofu, seitan, tempeh and mushrooms will hit a bowl of marinade and will be roasted like there is no tomorrow. Link in bio for our free @mymomsam E-book containing 5 delicious plant-powered recipes for on the BBQ and for all to enjoy!

The time we've all been waiting for is finally her The time we've all been waiting for is finally here. The summer family BBQ! The best time for a good toast under the sun, and a tasty roast too! Roasted tempeh and grilled tofu topped with tasty sauces are the perfect ingredients to set the summer vibes we’ve been looking forward to.

And yes, you read right. In the family summer BBQ we imagine, animals are more than welcome to attend as long as they are enjoying the moment with us, and not there as a sacrifice for us.

Sam and her family would be the first to say thanks for leaving meat behind this summer - and hopefully forever more! Sam is a mother of 251 piglets, of which only 9 are here today due to the industry. She became one of the lucky ones in February 2021 when she was rescued while pregnant with her little ones by @meliefanimalsanctuary. In wanting to show the spirit of those behind the isolated walls of the meat industry, House of Animals will be launching a documentary about Sam’s story and those of her piglets in 2022.

This summer and all days to come, let’s honor Sam and all the souls we’ve lost as a result of the industry by eating plant-based, succulent BBQs! Inspired by Sam’s story, House of Animals created a recipe book with the help of us, @maartjeborst and @lisettekreischer, which will make your summer glimmer with taste, rich flavors and joy. Download it for free on the website @mymomsam (link in our bio).

SUNNY SIDES UP Drum rolls, please! FAMILY.EAT.PL SUNNY SIDES UP

Drum rolls, please!

FAMILY.EAT.PLANT. has hit planet Earth and here is the first recipe to go online! And certainly not the least! Yes, we know, what you see here in the pic looks suspiciously like a sandwich with sunny-side-up eggs. But none of that!

What you see are peaches (or apricots) with a cheesy sauce. Maartje’s father used to make this recipe often on the weekend. Super easy, super yummy.

You can keep it plain and simple by just making the cheesy sauce, and prep the toast with the sauce and peaches, or you can go wild and throw some slices of vegan ham on there.

Recipe now up on the blog (link in bio).
