Do you have a garden? If you do, have you tried growing your own zucchini? When I started gardening three years ago, that’s what I planted first and was amazed how fast they grew. We got a lot of zucchinis that year and I got a little tired of zoodles. So I had to think…

CHERRY COCONUT-VANILLA OVERNIGHT OATS
Hey! Did you know I’m a big fan of oats (probably did if you’ve been following along for a while)? Overnight oats is one of my favorite ways of eating oats, and so I thought I’d share a recipe I’ve been loving so much ever since I bought the first cherries of the summer: cherry…
BERRY CREAM OVERNIGHT OATS PARFAIT
Hi! I’m here to share a quick very last minute idea for Mother’s Day tomorrow: berry cream overnight oats parfait! Long name, but a totally deserved one, since these are not your average oats. These parfaits, as the name suggests, are more like dessert, and definitely a good way to pamper your Mom in the…
VEGAN CARDAMOM BUN PANCAKES
Have I told you I really really love cardamom? I use it in my coffee and matcha latte, add it to granola, overnight oats, porridge, and to some savory foods, too. Today I’m going the traditional way (sort of) with my vegan cardamom bun pancakes. For a special celebration, they’re coated with sugar and eaten…
FINNISH SPINACH PANCAKES (VEGAN, GF)
Sunday soul food – pancakes. But not just any pancakes; these are our favorite traditional Finnish spinach pancakes (vegan, gf)! The original recipe, like many pancake recipes, contains eggs, milk and regular wheat flour. I make pancakes in an entirely different way focusing on plant-based wholefood ingredients. I didn’t even use any flour, just oats….
HOT CHOCOLATE OATMEAL
Hiya! It’s still winter here, and I’m eating warm oatmeal almost every morning. Sometimes as an evening snack too, as it’s so comforting and cozy. And besides, the tryptophan in oats helps me sleep better. This hot chocolate oatmeal contains one very special ingredient. Perhaps a surprising ingredient, although it’s definitely not a new one…

CREAMY STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB OVERNIGHT OATS
I saw the first rhubarb recipes popping on my Instagram feed already about two months ago, but here in Finland the rhubarb season is a bit later. This Creamy strawberry-rhubarb overnight oats recipe is inspired by beautiful rhubarb straight from our garden (just a little bit excited – it’s the first time ever I have my…
PORRIDGE FOR BREAKFAST, LUNCH, SNACK AND DESSERT
So happy to let my big secret out in the open: I made a cookbook together with my friend Tuulia from Wellberries ! We both share a huge passion for healthy plant-based food, and especially Porridge in all its forms is a subject close to our hearts. Our cookbook is all about wholesome & delicious…
VEGAN GLUTEN-FREE FRUIT AND NUT BREAD WITH CHOCOLATE BUTTER
All winter long I wanted to dig into my warm bowl of comforting porridge in the morning, but now it’s time for something different. This vegan gluten-free fruit and nut bread with chocolate butter is really something else. It’s more in the dessert for breakfast category than plain brekkie one, and I couldn’t ask for more. I’m…
