RAISED VEG PIE

30 January 2020 by Lisette Kreischer 6 Comments

This baby was one of the first recipes we posted on this blog. And one loved by many, so we felt it was time for a repost in case you have missed it. This raised veg pie is a classie English hot-water-dough fort loaded with a juicy filling of savory vegetables, shrooms and crispy tofu. Just perfect when served with mashed potato and/or a green salad. A good glass of dark beer would be nice too. We are really getting in the mood for savory and sweet pies at the moment ’cause this coming Monday we will start shooting for the best vegan baking book this world has ever seen ;-). Inspired and created by Maartje, photographed by Lisette. Hopefully on the market this summer!

THANKSGIVING MENU

20 November 2019 by Lisette Kreischer 6 Comments

Surprise! We made you a whole TG menu, starring Mr. Pumpkin as the star player. From mouth-watering pumpkin fritters, to a stuffed centrepiece and a mega-indulgent pumpkin pie. Saying THANKS is a big thing, do it good and make it count for all beings. Because the only thing we have to stuff is our face and the only thing we have to give is kindness. So step up your game and let this year be the year that you once and for all transform those Holiday feasts into cruelty free parties, rich in plants and free from animals! The real spirit of Thanksgiving and Christmas on your plate.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Looking for a treat to scare the hell out of your friends and family? Try these creepy fingers, which are actually delicious almond cookies. They’re easy to make but the presentation is dramatically gruesome. Try them . . IF YOU DARE.

WICKED SHROOM BUNS

16 October 2019 by Lisette Kreischer 2 Comments

This recipe is a MAN.EAT.PLANT. classic inspired by our friends at Wicked Healthy. The guys’ Wicked Kitchen line of ready-made plant-based meals at Tesco’s in the UK is a fabulous step forward for affordable and accessible vegan options for all. What a time to be alive as a vegan! To celebrate, we’re revisiting this old favorite. Note that this recipe is super versatile. We’re all about making it work! Not into mushrooms? We suspect that jackfruit would work stunningly though you need to bake a bit longer. No star anise on hand for the quick pickled cabbage? It makes for a nice addition, but feel free to try cloves, cinnamon sticks or any other whole, warm spice (or nothing at all — it’ll definitely be delicious regardless). No poultry seasoning? DIY some quickly with sage, thyme, rosemary and marjoram or some combination of these. Without further ado:

FULL FLAVOUR MENU

Cool dishes and deep flavours colour this Burgundian menu. A menu with a beast of a celeriac roast as centerpiece for the main show. Traditional, yet with the taste and ingredients of the future. Served after a crispy and light appetizer and prior to a wonderfully challenging and epic dessert. With a little bit of mentality and a good dose of courage you can create a wonderful Christmas dinner party with this menu enjoyable for all of your guests. Free of animals and rich in plants.

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!

PUMPKIN RACK ROAST

12 October 2018 by Lisette Kreischer Leave a Comment

No animal slaughter is needed for a roasty rack or for anything for that matter. You can make racks by butchering a pumpkin instead. Do it nicely though ;-). Serve with a green (arugula) salad and a grain/bean stew or just some good old mashed potatoes.
