Zucchini-broccoli soup, low carb vegan I love a nice creamy soup when it’s cold outside. Serve it with some high protein bread or crispbread spread with tofu-cream cheese and you’ve got yourself a meal. All you have to do is sauté the veggies in some oil, add water and some flavorings, let it cook and puree with your blender. Super […]

Black soybean chili, low carb vegan Our local Asian grocery stocks black soy beans, and I thought it might be nice to use them instead of regular black beans in a chili to make it lower carb. If you don't have black soybeans, you could use the more common white ones or even edamame.

Thai meal soup, low carb vegan I love meal soups. They are quick and easy to make, and you can chuck in any ingredients you have lying around. This Thai-ish version is nice to use up all the odd ends of veggies that are lying around in your fridge. Peppers, selery, cauliflower, broccoli, carrot, leeks, rutabaga, parship and many others work […]

Raw paleo vegan low carb cigköfte We don't have many vegan take-away option in our town, but we do have a Çiğköftem. This Turkish chain serves çiğköfte, little cold 'meat' rolls made of bulgur grains, walnuts, tomato paste and herbs that are accidentally vegan. The köfte are very delicious but not at all low carb friendly. That's why I decided to try and make this nut based version and it came out really good!

Kale-pumpkin salad, low carb vegan This salad has a great bite and is packed with nutrients like calcium, iron and vitamins A and K. As with all cruciferous veggies, it's nice to let the salad sit for a while so the dressing has time to soften up the kale. If you mix it up in the morning and take it to work, it will be nice and tender by lunchtime.

Thai curry, low carb vegan I love Thai food. Thankfully it is very easy to make it vegan and low carb. In this recipe I go the easy route and use a store bought curry paste. The result tastes great and is very easy to make. It has about 25 gram carbs and 450 calories for a big and very filling serving.

Creamy sundried tomato pasta, low carb vegan This recipe goes back to when I was a student and had to cook my own meals for the first time. I used to make it with crème fraîche and tortellini. Now I veganize it with soy yoghurt and make it low carb with soy noodles instead of pasta. It's still a very tasty meal and super quick to prepare.

Tofu scramble, low carb vegan What's a vegan blog without a few tofu scramble recipes right? This is my favorite scramble.It's super flavorful, filling, nutritious and very fast to make. I know scramble is traditionally a breakfast food, but I actually prefer to eat it for lunch, or even dinner!

Kale salade with tahini-miso dressing and baked tofu I love using tahini in salad dressings. It's so easy to whisk it with a few other ingredients and create a wonderful creamy dressing. In this recipe I mix it with some miso for a great savory punch. To make it filling meal salad I add some very flavorful and easy to make baked tofu.

Low carb vegan pizza I really like pizza, real pizza. Cauliflower crusts and what have you can be good too, but sometimes I just want my pizza to have a bread crust. That's where this recipe comes in. Because of all the high protein flours, this recipe is incredibly filling. Half a pizza will easily fill you up, so one pizza serves two.
