Chocolate Protein Balls
Guys. In the past to criminals in the Roman Empire, they used to attach each one of their limbs to a horse. Then order the horses to run in all directions. Ouch. I feel like life is trying to do that to me. So many things to do which have NOTHING to do with each other. Gotta process my simulations result. Prepare my french lessons (I’m a french teacher too). Work on the model of a CubeSat satellite we’re trying to send into space – if we win the competition – with ANOTHER team. On top of that I’m preparing for the Dobson cup. Now don’t get it wrong, I…
Irish soda bread
We all love the smell of homemade bread straight of the oven. However, we don’t like to knead it, and then waaaait for the dough the rise, then turn it into the desired shape, and then wait agaaaain for it to rise. Oh and did I mention baking AND cooling time ? Yeah, can’t be bothered. That’s when the Irish came to save our lives. No, not with green beer, but with soda bread. In a few days, make sure to thank St.Patrick for soda bread. Amen. Cause well, ain’t nobody got the time to wait. Yes yes, you can make bread using baking soda. Don’t believe me ? Try it…
Gofundme campaign and startup
Ok. I did it. I launched a gofundme campaign. I finally took the first step towards making my dream a reality. I wish I could say I could bake before I could crawl, but that won’t be true (but oh so cool). As you all know, baking in my passion. It relaxes me and nothing is more fun than twisting my favorite recipes or trying healthier versions. As a student I’m always on the go, and found that most snacks available on the market are either too expensive or simply unhealthy and highly processed. I see to change that, through SimpleBakes: by bringing daily, vegan, homemade, affordable, snacks to the…
Iced sugar moon biscuits
I used to looooove moon shaped biscuits, dipped in icing sugar, when I was a kid. My aunt would regularly make them and I would eat 5 of them at once. Yep,that was just how much I loved them. I made a slightly modified version the other day, and I really hope you like it 🙂 Ingredients 3/4 cup flour // 1/3 cup sugar // 2.5 tbsp margarine // 2 tbsp egg white // // 1 tsp vanilla extract or vanilla sugar // one cup of icing sugar, to coat the biscuits Instructions Mix everything together in a bowl // when you get a consistent dough, shape the biscuits in…
“Pulled” Tofu
Hey guys! Sorry for not having been much on the blog lately. These past days have been full of work and hustle 😃 But! I’m back with this delicous recipe. I just can’t describe the taste of the sauce as it’s different tastes mixed together 😍😍 There you go: Ingredients 220 g tofu, diced and boiled // 0.5 cup kidney beans, previously boiled or canned (make sure you wash them) // 2 small white onions, cut and fried // 1 tsp paprika // 1 tsp cumin // a pinch of salt // 1 tsp honey or maple syrup // 1 tbsp of corn starch // 1 tsbp of brown sugar…
Seedful Cookies
Guys. I swear, moments of improvisation are the best. Take this. I literally grabbed a bowl and threw a bunch of ingredients together. Obviously using cups, otherwise I’m left with recipes I just cannot recreate. Yay! Not cool. Anyways, this is a recipe you gotta try. Oh and it’s easily veganized, using maple syrup instead of honey. Or even agave syrup or golden syrup. Or just adding sugar and bypassing the whole honey/syrup thing. Flexibility. I love that word. Look at this. And this. Enough pictures though, here’s the recipe, hope you like it 🙂: Ingredients (for 2 large, thick cookies or 4 medium ones) 2/3 cup rolled oats…
Homemade Gravy (Vegan)
Ok so. Sorry for being MIA this past week. I was litterally drowning in equations! However, I did miss uploading on the blog and so, I’m starting with this vegan gravy, which can also be consummed as a soup 🙂 Look at this. Looks delicious? Imagine this gravy with a poutine, or even alone as a soup. I say yes!! Ingredients 2/3 cup of diced mushrooms (canned or boiled, keep the water)// 1 medium onion, boiled and diced // some black pepper, sea salt to taste // 1.5 tbsp of corn starch // 1/2 cup of mushroom water (used for boiling) + 1/2 cup of water OR 1/2 cup of…
