Kale is a nutritious vegetable that is often included in healthy meals. It is rich in minerals and vitamins, but it’s tough texture and slightly bitter taste can be off-putting to some people. However, when paired with a dressing, raw kale can be transformed into a delicious and tender dish. Adding sweet roasted pumpkin, crunchy pecan nuts, and acidic fresh berries to the salad enhances its flavour and makes it an even more enjoyable. This combination makes a great vegan salad.
After some experimentation, we’ve discovered the ultimate recipe for a mouth-watering vegan chocolate cake. One key step is to add a cup of hot water to the chocolate and whisk it until it’s set on a bed of ice. This simple technique truly makes a difference in the final product. To finish, we have topped the cake with a layer of coconut cream jello, a sprinkle of vegan crumble, and a selection of fresh berries. This combination will take your vegan chocolate cake to the next level.
