Chocolate Lava Cakes
I haven’t seen one of these cakes for a while, let alone a vegan version!
One of the first things I do when it comes to evaluating recipes is see how long it takes.

There’s nothing quite like a raw dessert let me tell you.

I wanted to start this by saying, ‘the best part about this recipe is…’. This is difficult to do when there are several best parts!

It doesn’t take that much longer and the end result is super impressive! Why not top with coconut cream?!

Caramelized Figs with Balsamic Vinegar (Gluten-Free)
I think figs are too often overlooked.
A couple of people I know want to enjoy figs but for some reason, don’t like them raw. This recipe caramelized them to perfection.
You can enjoy them on toast, with vegan yogurt or ice cream and of course, they’re wonderful on their own and oil-free as well!
Purple Sweet Potato Chia Seed Pudding
Chia seeds are wonderful for making puddings as they have natural properties that create that smooth texture.
Just five ingredients and about 10 minutes is all you need to create this beautiful looking dessert.
Whether it’s for a party or even just for yourself, these deserve to be eaten!
Toffee Apples
I was so delighted upon seeing this recipe.
Whether you’re new to toffee apples or you want to reminisce, this is a super easy recipe!
Simple to follow instructions and they taste great. Better than the original!
Guacamole Stuffed Rolls
If you love puff pastry but you don’t want to fill it with some processed nonsense, you just want real food, this is what you’re looking for!
The filling is not your regular guacamole, it also has zucchini, cashews and more! Incredibly tasty and every ingredient is real food. Who said snacks like these can’t be healthy?
Kimchi Pancakes
Well, well, well! This is why the word ‘delicious’ was invented!
Ania, the recipe author, instantly won me over with these incredible pancakes.
If you’re a savoury-type person you have to make these. Forget the party, make these for yourself and that’s all the party you need!
Thyme Scones with Strawberry Jam
What a wonderful recipe this is. Being British is all about the scones and this gives you a slight twist on the original recipe.
The fresh thyme is a fantastic idea and makes these suitable for something sweet or savoury as an accompaniment.
Get your Earl Grey ready and tell your butler it’s time for tea!

Here you’re making the crust with buckwheat, the filling includes olive oil and a little lemon juice. Serve with your favorite fresh salad or just eat alone.

Pesto Stuffed Mushrooms
Love mushrooms? Love pesto? You know I’m going with this!
They look great and taste even better, but I think the best part about this recipe is that its oil-free!
Whether you want to make these as an appetiser or just for a great snack, it doesn’t really matter because they need to be made!
Personally, these mushrooms and some warm crusty bread would be a win for me!
