Shout out

I want to give a shout out to one of my new faavvvvvorite blogs Whole Hearted Eats

I discovered this blog, written by a lovely woman named Sophie, through her gorgeous instagram account. Her blog is full of beautiful photographs of her delightfully simple and healthy recipes, plus great info on healthy cooking and eating. So far everything I've made from the blog has been fabulous. I want to make every single one of her dishes!

Here's my rendition of Sophie's raw vegan fig bars. They were quite simple to make and lovely as a breakfast treat

The flax 'rye' crackers made a perfect accompaniment to a sweet potato soup I made.

If you try only one recipe from Whole Hearted Eats, try these banana bread pancakes. I am happy to say that this was the first meal I ate in the new year, the perfect fuel after a long night of New Year's Eve dancing. To me, these are the perfect pancakes. They are vegan, simple to make, and most importantly delicious. And the recipe works! Though the batter is gluten-free, it still holds together nicely and cooks up beautifully. Made with a base of oats & hazelnuts they are nutrient rich and filling, but not too heavy. Plus, the sweetness from the banana means you don't need much maple syrup. 

A trillion thanks to Whole Hearted Eats for the incredible recipes and inspiration!
