VEGAN BUNNY CHEF

Ok, say this with me in one breath - Buffalo Chickpeas Pizza with Silken Tofu Ranch Sauce on a Four-Ingredient Gluten-Free Sweet Potato Crust! It might be a tongue twister but it's an even bigger tongue pleaser ;) With this easy, healthy sweet potato crust, you'll never need to or want to touch the stale store-bought stuff again! It only calls for four ingredients and is vegan and gluten-free, with no yeast or kneading needed. The crust came out slightly sweet, earthy, and chewy, with the edges perfectly golden and crispy. For the toppings, I used some sweet and umami caramelized onions, classic buffalo flavored chickpeas, and a light tofu ranch sauce to give the entire flavor palate a refreshing lift. This is a perfect recipe for a party, a holiday BBQ, or the whole family, vegans or not they'll gobble it all up!

Summer is a tricky time for meal prepping. The heat not only makes it harder to cook but also to enjoy the usual hot, steamy food. Here's an easy bowl that takes minimum effort and time to prepare and the popping colors and refreshing flavors would for sure win over anyone's dwindling appetite as the weather warms up. It doesn't get much easier than this meal. Simply slice the purple cabbage into "steaks", brush on some seasonings then oven-roast till the edges are crispy, while the leaves inside are still soft and tender. The smoky seasonings really bring out the natural sweetness of the cabbages. As for the pesto, that's even easier! Just throw all the sauce ingredients together and pulse away, no heat needed.

I love all the comfort food classics but truth be told, sometimes I get a little bored. Not so much as bored of eating them but more like bored of making them - I need things to be kept interesting in the kitchen (and where else ;) Believe me, even just a small change-up in the recipes can get you out of the slump. This recipe is a fun way to spice up the classic falafels! Or "sweeten up" to be more accurate. The peas add more plant protein to the falafels, as well as sweetness and moisture! And another perk is that your falafels would turn out greener and more vibrant. Also instead of deep-frying, I baked these in the oven, which is healthier and saves you an oily mess. For serving, I paired them with some homemade vegan tzatziki sauce made of silken tofu. They also go great with some earthy quinoa pilaf . INGREDIENTS: 1 can chickpeas, rinsed 3/4 cup frozen peas, defrosted 1 small red onion, chopped 2 cloves garlic 1 cup chopped parsley 1 cup chopped cilantro 1 teaspoon cumi...

Who says cupcakes have to be sweet? Here are some savory beetroot hummus cupcakes with a creamy, fluffy, yet light avocado crema frosting. And with these, your meals are gonna be just as exciting as the desserts, if not more! Most of the recipes we know are acquired from somewhere, either from watching our family members cook, researching, or from certain cultures, tv shows, or even history. But every once in a while, something completely new and different would pop up in my head that feels 100% me, like this vibrant savory cupcake. These beauties don't just look striking, they're also delicious and nourishing. The cupcake base is made mainly of beetroot and chickpeas, making them moist, soft, and high in protein and anti-oxidants. For the frosting, I made a creamy and refreshing avocado crema, which compliments the cupcake base so well and adds another layer of flavor and texture. And worry not, as a lazy chef myself I can promise you these are actually very low-maintenance an...

It always amazes me how many similarities we can find in food across drastically different cultures and countries. Cabbage roll, for instance, is a popular dish in Central, Northern, Eastern, and Southeastern Europe and much of  Asia, as well as parts of North Africa. But of course, they're made somewhat differently from region to region. In China, in particular, cabbage rolls are usually made with napa cabbage, as opposed to cannonball cabbage, or commonly known as green cabbage. They're then stuffed with minced pork and vegetables and finally steamed or pan-fried. The cabbage rolls are such a comforting treat, juicy, savory, light, and nourishing that I had to make a vegan version! For the vegan stuffing, I used brown rice, shiitake mushrooms, carrot, and sweet peas. You can also try other kinds of mushrooms but I highly recommend shiitake, they have a very special aroma that goes beautifully with Asian dishes! INGREDIENTS: Napa cabbage 1 cup cooked brown rice 6 oz shiitake ...

Is your burger pink in the middle? Well, mine always is! If you not only want to emulate the taste and texture of a "regular" burger but also the visual effect as much as possible, beetroot is that splash of color you're looking for! They will give your veggie burgers a vibrant pink hue that's just like a perfectly done medium-rare. Beetroots are also packed with essential nutrients, such as folate, manganese, potassium, iron, and vitamin C. And like laughter, beetroot's color is very "contagious" and will give the entire burger patty a striking pink color. At the same time, they make the burgers moister and add a hint of sweetness to the taste. On a side note, Mother's Day is coming up and this pink burger could be a perfect meal to put a big smile on mama's face!
