PULLED PLANT MEAT AREPAS

6 February 2020 by Lisette Kreischer Leave a Comment

If you’ve ever been to country’s like Colombia, Venezuela and Mexico you probably know this comfy corn staple food. It’s a cornflour patty (in between bread and pancake) and you can eat it with all kinds of toppings like avocado, vegan cheese and plant meat. We made this avo-carnitas variety which is utterly delicious! You can use our pulled mushroom or pulled jackfruit recipe, both are delicious!

CRUSTY DUTCH CROQS

28 December 2019 by Lisette Kreischer Leave a Comment

One of the most familiar snacks in The Netherlands are kroketten; filled with a roux and crusted on the outside. Traditionally made with animal flesh. However we of course made them future proof and cruelty free, enriched with the magestically celeriac and king oyster shrooms! Maartje’s nan used to make kroketten on New Year’s eve, because we Dutchies are already frying oliebollen and appelflappen, so it’s easy to just let a couple of kroketten sink in the frying pan as well. Happy New Year!

PRETZELS & BEER SAUCE

8 November 2019 by Lisette Kreischer Leave a Comment

Pretzels using basically two ingredients, ready in an instant? Really?!? Really! Sure, these bites aren’t going to be winning anyone a medal of culinary achievement, but they make for a crisp, toasty vehicle for a delicious sauce. And today, that sauce is a cheesy beer sauce: an American bar food classic. The magic of this yogurt/flour dough is that it can be used for so many things: last minute flatbread, pita and bagels to name a few. So if you’ve ever got a serious carb emergency, give it a try! We’re all about easy peasy recipes that are perfect for kitchen newbies and experts alike.

THE KIND EMPANADA

16 August 2019 by Lisette Kreischer Leave a Comment

Do you remember empanadas? Those lovely South American hand pies stuffed with savoury goodness? Only we made a better version by choosing the plant based ingredients that are just as savory and satisfying as the ‘classic’ ones, but much kinder for you, the world and all animals. The stuffing consists of green olives, apple, bell pepper and a vegan bechamel sauce which binds the ingredients surprisingly well. And the dough… oh la la…it’s so flaky and buttery and super easy to make! They are best eaten just after frying them (let cool down for a bit so you don’t burn your mouth ;)).

CONFIT PADRON PEPPERS

8 August 2019 by Lisette Kreischer Leave a Comment

This is what life is about. No fuzz, just the utter joy of simple things that taste like heaven. If you cook these babies well, the texture becomes very silky (especially if you’re using the best quality extra virgin olive oil) and the taste super sweet. The salt adds just the right amount of crunch to the soft peppers. Eat them as a snack, appetizer or side dish. Perfect with some sourdough bread and a nice chilled Sauvignon Blanc or cool beer.

COCK-A-DOODLE-DOO SALAD

17 May 2019 by Lisette Kreischer Leave a Comment

In this day and age who needs eggs or chickens to enjoy a lovely eggy flavoured salad?! No one! Say hell to the yeah for plant based awesomeness like kala namak! Kala nama is black rock salt with a sulphurous, pungent-smell and flavour which many egg eaters really seem to love when added to a plant based dish. So now one can meets their eggy cravings, for instance with this brilliant eggless salad, while chickens can be happy and free and sing their wonderful cock-a-doodle-dee tunes.

BBQ JACKFRUIT TACOS

3 May 2019 by Lisette Kreischer Leave a Comment

Oh lala these tacos just rock and definitely have some latin temperament! Intensely seasoned and slow roasted jackfruit (young and ripe, that’s the secret to perfect tasting ‘pulled jackfruit meat’) makes this dish taste absolutely sensational. A crowd pleaser for sure. THE go-to Friday night dinner for a great start of the weekend.

FISHY EGGPLANT


5 April 2019 by Lisette Kreischer Leave a Comment

Eggplant is one of the most served veggies for vegetarians and vegans in restaurants. Amazingly enough though it is also one of the most misunderstood and poorly prepared vegetables. This should not be the case. Eggplant is a beastly veggie with a bizarre flavour and texture potential. You just have to know how to handle it. Hence this recipe. Especially for the former fish lovers, this is probably a very special taste experience. You can give the eggplant a surprisingly sea-ish taste by smoking it. The silky smooth structure of eggplant in combination with the smoky flavour makes this an amazing delicacy. Serve on toasted sourdough bread with arugula, avocado and vegan mayo.

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.

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).
