Burger Steak with Brown Butter Sauce

What do you do for self care? I think most people avoid cooking themselves a good meal as part of their self care routine because it sounds like a lot of work, but recipes like this vegan burger patty with brown butter sauce is an incredibly fast and easy way to do something special for yourself. It’s an elegant restaurant-quality meal, without the huge bill at the end.

This is the easiest sauce you will ever make, and a very tasty one, but then what doesn’t taste good when it’s drenched in butter? This is the perfect topping for stuffed pastas like ravioli, tortellini and agnolloti.

Browned butter sauce isn't just ridiculously easy. Melt butter over medium-low heat, and the butter transforms, turning from merely melted to something toasty and nutty. It’s pretty much the best thing ever in the entire universe.

Cauliflower Meatballs

I've tried a lot of the faux meats out there. The burgers, the hot dogs, the bacon, the sausage, the chicken. And while I think a lot of it tastes really good, there have definitely been a few duds. But if I can create it at home, quickly & easily and made out of whole food ingredients, then why not do that instead? I mean, it tastes good and is good for you...I'm down with that.

These vegan cauliflower meatballs are an easy to make, nourishing meal the whole family loves. A delicious vegan meat replacement, they're made without eggs or dairy, are oil-free and gluten-free adaptable, and are just as fabulous cooked in the oven or the air fryer.

If you're scared of cauliflower, the time has come to move past your fear. Believe me - I was afraid of it at a point in my life too. I know it can have a funky smell while you're cooking it. But with the right spices, you can transform cauliflower into a really amazing meal. And in this recipe in particular, you're not even going to know there is cauliflower in there.

Soba Noodle Salad

You probably think of a cold macaroni salad or an Italian rotini salad when you hear pasta salad. Those are both delicious but lets also normalise stepping out of our comfort zone and trying new things, like this vegan cold spa noodle salad. Not only does this salad look incredibly beautiful, but it tastes incredible!

While there is no lettuce in this salad, I’m going to be a rebel and still call it one. It’s loaded with crunchy veggies like cabbage, carrots, and cucumber. Also, I guess technically the freshly chopped cilantro can count as a green, right?

I tossed my noodles with a creamy, tangy, slightly sweet & spicy sauce. This sauce is effortless to make and so good I swear I’ve been tempted to eat it by the spoon. Overall, this soba noodle salad is a delicious combination of flavours and textures, and completely hits the spot. it’s a little bit of everything – sweet, spicy, salty, noodly and refreshing all in one!
