Here’s the scoop - this vegan vanilla cherry ripple ice cream is as good as (or dare we say, better than) the traditional dairy-based ripple ice creams.  Its ultra-rich, melt-in-your-mouth creaminess will leave you guessing whether it’s truly dairy-free (it is!). The right blend of almond milk and coconut cream gives it a delightfully soft, ice-creamy texture but without an overpowering coconutty taste.  Ripples of sweet, tart seasonal cherries, blended into a base of sweet vanilla make this dessert an ultimate summer delight. So, whip up a batch, before cherry season melts away. Ing ..read more

And THIS irresistibly delicious, vegan BBQ black bean burger with sticky caramelized onions, is proof of it.   The patty is made with black beans, brown rice and spiced generously with bbq sauce. Black beans are a great replacement for meat in vegan cooking, as they have a natural meaty (umami) taste, and are a rich source of protein, fibre, and vitamin B. They also give a nice binding to the mix and help the patty hold its shape when grilled so that you get to bite into moist, chunky, umami-packed burgers.  Fire up the barbe ..read more
