Blueberry Granola for Breakfast

This morning I ended up having a good old fashioned bowl of granola for breakfast – with Brazil nuts, hazelnuts, blueberries, bananas, and soy milk. Having typical ‘breakfast’ foods in the morning is a bit unusual for me, but this was a huge treat!

I’ve recently decided to go organic with my bananas, and I’m surprised that they actually taste much better than regular bananas, and they last longer, too!

Grapefruit & Banana Pastry Dessert with Almond Tofu

This was dessert last night:

Freshly peeled grapefruit with banana slices and almond flavoured tofu, topped with pastry flakes. The perfect combination!

Ultimate Rhubarb Dessert & Maple Caramel Tofu

I cooked up another batch of my rhubarb stew, and also discovered the most delicious way to serve it!

Slices of banana, apple (adds a great crunchiness!), and strawberries, topped with maple caramel flavour dessert tofu. Perfect

Snow Pea Shoots Smoothie

Picked up some snow pea shoots at the market the other day, and decided to make a smoothie out of them! This was a first for me, but it was surprisingly good. The colour turned out a bit lighter than my regular baby spinach smoothies, and the taste was very pleasant and mild. I put a big bag of them in the freezer, because I’m pretty sure I’ll be making a lot more of these!

• snow pea shoots
• pineapple
• strawberries
• banana

Apple & Tofu Banana Cream Pie in a bowl! (vegan)

I’m pretty sure this was the tastiest dessert I’ve had all year (:  I promise, it tastes just like banana cream pie!

Here’s my ingredients:

• ripe banana
• apple slices
• dessert tofu (banana flavour)
• my maple-pumpkin candied walnuts
• blueberry flax

…insanely delicious

Banana Lemonade!

Mixed up some lemonade for a quick study break:

I like to keep things simple & healthy, so it was just:

• 1 whole Meyer Lemon (yup, peel and all! ..makes it frothy!)
• half a ripe banana

Mmmm!

Vegan Oat & Date Cookies

So, using my homemade oat flour and chia flour, I decided to concoct a recipe and I came up with these nifty little cookies!

I mixed together the following ingredients:

• oat flour
• chia flour
• rolled oats
• baking soda
• ripe banana
• dates
• granola
• soy milk

…I just added enough of each to stir up a thick batter, and I try not to use the oven when I’m only baking for myself, so I cooked them up on the stove in a non-stick pan!

Vegan Snackage (Day 3): Strawberry & Banana Fondue!

- The title says it all ♥

Today’s snack was a healthy and delicious serving of fresh strawberries & banana, with melted dark vegan chocolate on the side! It just doesn’t get better than this (:

Pink Tea & Vegan Strawberry Banana Biscuit! (recipe)

Here’s what I had for tea today (:

The biscuits were super easy and quick to make! I just gathered up the following ingredients:

• quick oats
• a strawberry (sliced)
• half a banana (very ripe)
• cocoa
• a pinch of cinnamon
• walnuts
• soy milk

Then I mixed them up with a spoon and put them in a frying pan on the stove at medium heat, flipping them occasionally for about 15 minutes.

I had them together with some organic blackcurrant hibiscus herbal tea (I love this stuff)!

Vegan Chocolate Banana Pudding!

Tonight’s desert was a real treat – it turned out amazing!

I used:

• 2 small pieces of melted vegan chocolate
• 1 dried fig, finely chopped
• chia seeds pre-soaked in soy milk
• 2 tbsp of pearl barley flour

…and I just mixed them into a paste and put it on top of a sliced banana.

For topping, I used hemp seeds, granola, and some cocoa powder. Really, really yummy!!
