Chocolate Mug Cake in 3 Minutes

March 23, 2014 5 Comments

chocolate-mug-cake

I had a hankering for chocolate yesterday, but no energy to whip up cake or cookies or anything else, so I did the next best thing, I made cake in the microwave!

This cake is simple, delicious and only takes 3 minutes start to finish. You’ll want to make it over and over again (I may or may not have made 2 of these in a row).

Add a scoop of your favourite vegan ice cream on top, and you’ll be blown away!

This Week’s Vegan Menu Plan

Every week, I create a menu plan for the week ahead. I’ve always found menu planning to be helpful, but especially when eating a vegan diet. Sometimes I forget to make one, and those weeks are just awful. I stare into the fridge and whine that there’s “nothing to eat”, even though the fridge is […]

Gluten-Free Vegan Pumpkin Scones with Chopped Pecans

Scones, anyone? What about pumpkin scones? With a delicious glaze and crushed pecans? Yes? You’re not sick of pumpkin yet, are ya? Pumpkin is still flying around my kitchen ALL THA TIMEEEEE these days and I am digging into it left and right. And these scones. They are not only stuffed with pumpkin and pecans […]

3 Ingredient Vegan Gnocchi

Pasta made out of potatoes and flours. Pu-lease. I am too sophisticated for that. But I checked out the recipe anyway. […]

Chocolate & Coconut Pumpkin Bars (Raw, No Bake)

With a can of pumpkin in my hand, I was on a mission to make something tasty. I didn’t feel like cookies or cake or pie or fudge (WHAT?!), so I hopped on Pinterest and scoured the site for pumpkin treats I could make right here, right now. Then I got distracted by quotes. And […]

Chocolate Beetroot Dougnuts

Extra, extra! Read all about it! I put beets in my doughnuts and I’m loving every last bite of these chocolate morsels! I used to be one of those people who hated beets. In fact, just the sight of them alone would give me the heebie jeebies. My mom used to always buy the pickled […]

Mini Cauliflower Crust Pizzas with Sun-Dried Tomato Sauce

The other day I was thinking out loud and my brain forced me to blurt out “cauliflower crust pizza I need you in my liiiiiife”. And clearly if I’m thinking about a particular food, I need to make it, or my brain will not be happy. And so I obliged. I made cauliflower crust pizza. And […]
