Made with a blend of plant-based yoghurt, plant-based cream cheese and firm tofu, this cheesecake is a lighter alternative to traditional cheesecake while still delivering a rich and creamy flavor. The addition of fresh persimmon, zesty ginger, and tangy lime adds depth of flavour and a touch of natural sweetness. And best of all, this cheesecake contains zero cholesterol, making it a guilt-free treat for those watching their cholesterol levels. Whether enjoyed as an after-dinner dessert or a midday snack, this Persimmon Ginger Lime Cheesecake is a satisfying and healthy choice.

A luxurious dessert that is all plant-based, dairy-free and gluten-free. A decadent surprise for all that are tempted to try it. Who doesn’t love a pumpkin pie and who doesn’t love cheesecake? Combining them together may make some people want to get a hotel room when they eat this one. And put the do not disturb sign up.

If you want a quick breakfast that looks and tastes like scrambled eggs, this is your ticket. Healthy and oil free. Add it on top of toast or just eat it in a traditional manner, it will not disappoint.

Grilled corn is such a treat in season. Summer at its best. It is a healthy food and fun to eat. This can be a side dish for other summer barbeque dishes.   

Never having been a mayonnaise fan, this recipe intrigued me. The consistency and taste are wonderful.

Another recipe that I have re-imagined is my Chocolate Cheesecake Bites with Strawberry Confetti.  I have converted this recipe to be vegan while retaining the smooth velvety texture of your traditional cheesecake.  Use the best quality cocoa powder you can as it will enhance the flavour.

This Banana Bread is a recipe that my mother typed for me and I have used so much. I wanted to try an eggless version, so the secret ingredient is silken tofu instead of eggs. You can make it added sugar free, dropping many calories but still enjoying a sweet treat. The overripe bananas give it sweetness and the vinegar, milk and yoghurt are a substitute for buttermilk . I have since made many updates to it and improved the calories, carb count and saturated fat profile, but it remains true to its original heritage.
