Vegan and keto pad thai with shirataki noodles
I love pad thai, it’s one of my favourite dishes! I still remember when I went to Thailand for the first time: it was 2016 and I was so amazed by the flavours and the taste of food and pad thai was actually one of the things I ate every day during my holiday! The […]
Ceci ripassati in padella con curry e rosmarino
Da brava vegana quale sono, ho sempre dei ceci in cucina. Che siano secchi o in scatola, non mancano mai. Ci sono dei periodi in cui li mangio tutti i giorni, devo dire che tra tutti i legumi sono forse i miei preferiti sia per il sapore che per la loro consistenza. In pratica ci […]
Gram flour frittata with leek and red peppers
Frittata was one of those dishes my mum used to make when she had to empty the fridge 😀 Frittata could actually contain anything, from cheese to leftover veggies, fresh herbs from the garden and so on, even pasta from the day before (if you haven’t tried it, you should!). Today’s frittata follows the same […]
Cime di rapa ripassate in padella con aglio, olio e peperoncino
Le cime di rapa sono tipiche della Puglia e da quando sono rientrata in Italia ne ho mangiate a quantità industriali. A me piacciono molto con pane bruscato e un po’ di olio extravergine di oliva a crudo ma sono buonissime anche con le orecchiette. Di solito preferisco cucinarle a crudo perchè sono più saporite […]
Pasta e ceci, ciciari, scesci…la ricetta di mamma Rita
Mentre facevo un po’ di ricerca per capire le origini della pasta e ceci, devo dire che ci ho capito ben poco. Credo sia un piatto della tradizione romana, alcune ricette prevedono le patate ed il sugo, altre il sugo ma non le patate, altre le patate ma non il sugo…Insomma per farvela breve, l’unica […]
Quinoa summer salad
It’s that time of the year again, it’s salad time! I love salads, mostly because they are quick to make but also because they are so refreshing! I originally made this salad because I had nothing in the fridge but it turned out pretty well so I’ve decided to publish the recipe! It’s a very […]
Avocado toast con tofu
Questa bombetta calorica piena di proteine e grassi buoni può essere mangiata sia a colazione che a pranzo. E’ velocissima da preparare, e se siete amanti dello scrambled tofu come me, beh allora siete nel posto giusto. La fissa di scramblare mi è venuta quando stavo in UK comunque: lì di sabato il brunch è […]
How to make vegan lasagne with seitan ragu
These vegan lasagne with seitan ragu are great for parties and Sunday lunches with friends. The good thing about lasagne is that they always taste delicious and if you make too many you can always freeze them, microwave and enjoy later on. Before we start though, I have a question: it’s lasagna or lasagne? Singular […]
Vegan keto fritters with cauliflower and turmeric
These vegan keto fritters are made with cauliflower florets and are tasty, easy to make and also high in protein. We usually have them for lunch or dinner with some green salad on the side but you can have them as a snack too. They’re great both warm or cold, with dips or without, I […]
Tempeh skewers with ginger sesame sauce
Tempeh is one of our favourite foods. It’s high in protein and fibre, low in carbs and contains no sugar at all: it’s a great food for diabetics or anyone who’s looking to watch their carbs (hello keto peeps!). Tempeh is also an excellent source of magnesium, B vitamins, phosphorus, and manganese and offers you […]
Penne pasta with mushroom and seitan ragu
This penne pasta with mushroom and seitan ragu is very easy to make and you can serve it either hot or cold. We tend to have it cold as we usually cook it the evening before: now that the weather is great we have our lunch break outdoor so we cook our meals in advance, […]
Stuffed tomatoes with brown rice and tofu
Stuffed tomatoes are a classic roman dish and I used to have it all the time when I was in Italy. My mum used to make them with white basmati rice and potatoes while our version has fewer carbs and more proteins. We have replaced white rice with brown rice as it’s more suitable for […]
Spirulina tortilla wraps
Do you like tacos and tortilla wraps? We do! We mostly eat tortilla wraps during the summer months, as we often have our lunch at the park. Tortilla wraps are great, you can prep them in advance and bring them with you anywhere, they take up so little space! If you’re a wrap lover like […]

Stir-fried zucchini is something I used to eat a lot when I was a kid: my dad used to grow zucchini during summer and I remember our garden being full of them! We […]
