Silken chocolate mousse, low carb vegan This tofu mousse is a real life saver if you are craving low carb dessert. It’s super creamy and nicely soft and firm at the same time. You won’t taste the tofu at all. If you want a stronger chocolate flavor, add more tofu. A serving has about 4 g of net carbs and 8 […]

Low carb vegan nut&seed granola This granola is David's favorite breakfast. He has been eating this every morning for as long as three years or so. It's amazing! It is gluten free, and paleo friendly. I guess you could also make it raw, but I like a little toasty flavor to it.

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.

Low carb vegan nut bread This recipe came from a loose leaflet that I found in an old cookbook that we got from David’s granny. I love getting inspiration from these old family recipes. First I veganized it by repalicing the milk and eggs with alternatives, and then I made it low carb by replacing the wheat flour with my […]

Low carb vegan lemon poppyseed muffins These little cakes are very filling. They are a perfect snack to bring with you to work or when you are going on a trip. Unfortunately, they only keep for about two days at room temperature. They freeze and thaw very well though, so you can easily make a big batch and put them in the freezer for when you fancy something sweet.

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.

Blender ice cream, low carb vegan Spring has finally arrived and that makes me think about summery treats like ice cream. If you have a high powered blender or strong food processor it's super easy and quick to make your own fruity soft serve, sherbet, ice cream or whatever you like to call it. Choose berries as your fruit to keep this really low in carbs.

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.

Sundried tomato tapenade, vegan Yum, tomato tapenade! I like to eat it on crackers, use it as a sauce for pasta and even as a salad dressing. Store-bought tapenade is often expensive and it can be difficult to find vegan versions, so I like to make my own. It's super easy if you use a jar of sundried tomatoes in oil as the base.
