WATERMELON STEAKS

4 July 2019 by Lisette Kreischer Leave a Comment

These steaks are super juicy and melt in the mouth. There’s a slight but certain hint of umami in a melon, and by grilling or roasting it, the umami becomes more pronounced. Simple and good. Perfect for summer BBQ’s too!

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.

CAULI BOMBED MAC

19 October 2018 by Lisette Kreischer 2 Comments

Mac & cheese, an all time favorite. No animal cheese of course, that’s soooo last season. Plant cheese is da sjit. We made this version with a rich and cheesy walnut and cauliflower sauce. The guerilla shiitake ‘bacon’ hidden between two layers of creamy pasta goodness will release a flavor attack as soon as they hit your mouth. Soak the walnuts overnight for the best result. You can use rejuvelac, bread drink or vinegar diluted with water as soaking liquid for extra pungent flavor. 
Enjoy!

BOUDIN NOIR + ‘STAMPPOT’

5 October 2018 by Lisette Kreischer Leave a Comment

This recipe is featured in the MAN.EAT.PLANT. book, but it’s too epic not to share with you international folks! Almost every European country (or even region) has their own version of a Boudin Noir or black pudding. With this future proof and bleed free variety the disgusting classic horror sausage will be swept off the map. It consists of ‘bloody’ black rice (no kidding, the cooking liquid will turn into a bloody red juice with mineral flavour), oats and lots of spices, just like a traditional black pudding. Delectable with all kinds of mashes, like Dutch ‘stamppot’ (recipe included), or as burger on a bun. You HAVE to give this one a try.

With just a few ingredients you can whip up the most convenient autumn comfort food meal. Serve with pasta, sourdough bread or mashed potatoes.

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.

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).

Dear peeps! It has been so long! How are you all d Dear peeps! It has been so long! How are you all doing?!

We have been absent for almost a year on this page. How time flies. When C hit and the measures influenced our lives as entrepreneurs we had to rearrange some stuff. We did not sit still though. Maartje moved to another city, published an amazing vegan baking book Taart ende Koeck and got pregnant ;-). Lisette co-wrote the book DOG.EAT.PLANT., became part of the rescue operation and project @mymomsam and unfortunately lost her biggest friend in the whole world, Mr. Pooh.

WHAT.A.JOURNEY. Life is just miraculous and everything always changes.

In January we embarked on the journey of making a vegan family cookbook which had been a long dream of ours. It turned out to be a magical process. Everything flowed like never before. Also, the book took on a whole new meaning for both of us. On the day we started shooting the recipes Maartje shared the extraordinary news of expecting a baby and after the last day of shooting little Pooh, Lisette's biggest family member passed away.

Making the book was an emotional project, but not in a hard way. It turned out to be very healing actually. The publisher was the kindest and helped in every way she could.

This whole book breathes family. And as far as we are concerned... family is a feeling.

A family is a co-creation of beings - human, more than human, etc. And that includes tasty, diverse, and good food. Food that supports everything and everyone, including this Earth. 

FAMILY.EAT.PLANT. has become a delicious cookbook, this time with family recipes for young and old. In addition to recipes, this book also contains interviews with the inspiring and amazing plant-powered families.

We cannot wait to have a copy in our hands and are counting down the days.

Want to have a copy in your hands too ;-)? You can pre-order this book now via link in bio. The book will launch next week and we will share some of the recipes over here (in EN & NL).

Dear peeps, We have let our minds wander in regar Dear peeps,

We have let our minds wander in regards to the new reality we are finding ourselves in and to say it with the words of @zachbushmd (check out his posts!) we 'strongly believe there is too much bandwidth of the collective human consciousness spent on this topic’ so we are not gonna add anything to that besides a few things:

1. @thedutchweedburger just posted an amazing article on their blog that to us says it all

2. we are not quite sure if we will be able to continue our friday posts during the coming period, but will do our best to offer easy and delicious plant based inspiration, maybe through our stories

3. because we see a lot of sadness on social media right now we thought this recipe might cheer you up a bit. Just because a smile can do so much for yourself, your body and the world around you.

We created these Pupcakes in service of @worldanimalprotectionnl and you can find the recipe via their website (link in bio) in Dutch. If you need English, Google is your friend ;-). These vegan puppy dogs are worth a translation.

Stay safe!

Maartje & Lisette
