Rice vermicelli noodle bundles on a plate with panfried soy curls, tomato, red mint, with sauce, lettuce, and pickled carrots & daikon in the background

Bánh Hỏi Thịt Nướng Chay is a veganized dish of my childhood; vegan bánh hỏi is made with rice vermicelli bundles (held together with starch), topped with a green onion oil, and served with a dipping sauce and a savoury grilled marinated meat, which I’ve replaced with marinated soy curls! We are well underway to […]

Vegan Chicken Sopas (Filipino Macaroni Soup)

Today’s recipe is another veganized Filipino recipe inspired by Janelle: Chicken Sopas! This is something Janelle grew up eating as comfort food, and surprisingly enough, there is a Vietnamese equivalent dish as well! Vietnamese macaroni soup is often made with pork or chicken, but it’s just another method of extracting a lot of flavour from […]

Hummus will always have a special place in my heart. I was first introduced to Lebanese hummus when I was in university. Ottawa has a HUGE Lebanese community and most of the shawarma shops I used to frequent as a student were all run by Lebanese families.

Maybe these are fighting words, but in my experience, the creamiest hummus can always be found at Lebanese shops!

After spending way too much money and feeling guilty about all the styrofoam and plastic on takeout hummus I figured I really need to just make my own. 

Dried beans, garlic, lemon juice, tahina, olive oil and salt are all you need, and now I have unlimited hummus for a fraction of the cost and less waste.

I make this weekly batch of hummus and enjoy it with double baked pita crackers or warm naan with a very generous spoonful of chili crisp. Recipe is on my blog if you want it!

VEGAN BISCOFF TIRAMISU! 15 min of work for super easy, simple and lazy tiramisu vibes. Full recipe and instructions are on the blog, link in stories and in the bio!

Sorry in advance if the photo quality of my content goes down over the next few weeks, I had three hours to make breakfast, eat, soothe a baby, tackle some emails, then shoot and write up this recipe. So something had to give haha. One day I’ll photograph this recipe properly, but that day is not today.

Last week I woke up at 6 AM and couldn’t get my mom’s childhood chicken wing sauce out of my head. She called it “thịt gà kho”, but I don’t see any other comparable versions online. A lot of them have similar sauces but it wasn’t the same dark, sweet and sticky sauce. Luckily she shared her ratios with me, so we’ve got the sauce!

Then I started researching a bunch of different methods for making shreddy chicken seitan, and I combined a bunch of versions to try today. The flavour was almost right, but the texture can definitely be improved. BUT it was just a quick, stovetop cooked recipe, which I found extremely awesome and easy. So I think I just need to play around with some more ratios and add-ins.

Still have to test the recipe again, but putting the dinner together on the plate looked so pretty I decided I wanted to take a picture 🤩

How are vegetables just so dang beautiful!? Need to buy more mushrooms and lettuce tomorrow to test this again. Hope you all had a refreshing and relaxing weekend and are ready to take on this week🤗

If you want a similar dish to this (with a diff protein), I have a thịt nướng recipe on the blog you can try to eat bánh hỏi: https://thevietvegan.com/vietnamese-vermicelli-bundles-with-marinated-soy-curls-vegan-banh-hoi-thit-nuong-chay/

I grew up eating an absurd amount of lasagna alfredo as a kid (hello Michelina’s!), so creamy, cheesy pasta is peak comfort food for me.

Made this for dinner yesterday after editing clips of past Lisa make this for birthday eats in my very long overdue vlog that I just posted :)

Find the recipe on my blog: https://bit.ly/326eSqh

And new video is on the YouTube channel! It’s a chill cooking/birthday adventure vlog where I made bulgogi bento with japchae, kongnamul muchim, and then had many a carb for dinner 🥰

I’m still hanging on to summer foods, I swear. But in case you’re not in the mood for a leafy wrap, this vegan bulgogi mince is delicious over a big bowl o’ steamed rice 🍚

Watching a ton of Korean housewife vlogs lately has meant I’ve been watching so many people make Korean BBQ from home. Since I was too lazy to make seitan, I used vegan beefy ground to make this and it is beefy, savoury, with a touch of sweetness.

Recipe is live now on the blog (https://bit.ly/3Ay34JM) and is in regular rotation for our home dinners when we have an abundance of herbs and lettuce :)

Been eating a lot of this Vietnamese veganized omelette (cooked tamagoyaki style) lately because I’ve just been craving comfort food. What else is new haha.

My mom used to make this a lot for me growing up as a convenient and easy protein for dinner because we always had green onion and eggs in the fridge.

I had been playing around with the recipe and vegan fish sauce but I was finding it to be too stinky until I started adding a touch of sugar. 🤯 as soon as I added a 1/2 tsp of sugar, it transformed to the complex, savoury eggy dish I remembered eating.

WILD what a touch of sugar can do. Anyway, it’s a really easy and homestyle recipe, link to it is in my stories or in the bio :) https://bit.ly/3zYTBe9

Eat it for breakfast, lunch or dinner with rice! 🥰 I hope you like it!
