Vegan Lemon Poppy Seed Protein Cake
Although not as puffy as it’s egg-filled counterpart, this vegan protein cake is delicious, moist and still comes in at over 15 grams of protein!
Cardamom Vanilla Porridge

Aloo Palak (Potato + Spinach Curry)
Aloo palak is a curry dish popular in North India and made up of tomatoes and potatoes smothered in a spinach based sauce. It’s best served with rice, naan, or chapati. There are many other aloo dishes. Some with cheese (palak paneer), lentils (palak daal), or mixed vegetables (palak bahar). Generally it’s loaded with dairy, but I’ve made a dairy-free aloo palak that everyone can enjoy!
Coconut Payasam (Sweet Coconut Pudding)
Sweet coconut pudding with fresh young coconut meat, coconut water, cashews, vanilla, and ghee.
Pineapple Payasam (Sweet Pineapple Pudding)
Payasam; also known as kheer in Northern India, specifically in the Punjabi community, is a rice pudding, traditional in South Asia. It’s made by boiling rice, noodles, or broken wheat with milk and sugar, and flavored with cardamom, raisins, saffron, cashews, pistachios or almonds. Out of all the payasam I enjoyed, coconut, cashew and cinnamon were the most popular. It is typically served during a meal alongside your curries or rice, or consumed alone as a dessert.

Dhal Aloo Kofta (Vegan ‘Meat’balls)
The word kofta is derived from Persian k?fta which means “to beat” or “to grind” or meatball. The kofta in India is generally made vegetarian by replacing the ground meat with a variety of vegetables and cheeses. In my homemade rendition I chose to use lentils (aka dhal) and potato (aloo).
