Warming Chocolate Orange Porridge - also called the taste of Christmas! At least that's what the general perception seems to be in the UK. Back in Germany, where I grew up, there's not much fuss around the chocolate orange flavour combination (apart from commercially produced Jaffa cakes in stores), which probably explains why it's taken me so long to find my love for it. It's actually been the Chocolate & Orange bar by Pure Heavenly Chocolates that put me on the band waggon, and I've honestly been addicted since. So it's to no surprise that the combination has made it onto my breakfast table! I love being creative with my porridge flavours - and if you're following my Instagram stories, you probably know that I regularly like to blend fruit purees and more into my porridge to give it that extra something. For this Chocolate Orange Porridge I've actually used freshly squeezed juice of one orange - and added the chocolate flavour with a spoonful of vegan chocolate protein powder. I've used the Free Soul chocolate protein, cause it's simply fantastic and makes everything taste like an absolute treat, whilst also carrying added superfoods. Of course you can also create this bowl without this particular chocolate protein - simply replace the spoonful with cacao powder and you're ready to go!
Sundays have easily become my favourites in these past few years and a delicious vegan Sunday roast has actually made a large contribution to it. I've recently decided to go out on the hunt for the best vegan Sunday Roast in London - the idea came after Nick and me really felt like having a vegan Sunday Roast without having to spend hours in the kitchen and after googling around, we didn't even know where to start looking for it. So hey, if you're in that same situation, I want to create some content that's actually helpful in finding a delicious vegan roast near you! And what's the best place to start my search for the best Vegan Sunday roast in London? My favourite restaurant of course!

It's the most wonderful time of the year - and the time of mulled wine that is, so I simply had to bring you a deliciously warming Vegan Mulled Wine Recipe! I've fallen in love with mulled wine about 5 years ago. Until then I had never been a big fan and just stuck to non alcoholic punches, which I had loved since I was a kid. We call them 'Kinderpunsch' in German, which technically means they are for kids - but I still continued to love them when I hit adulthood ;) For Vegan Mulled Wine however, it probably took me 5 attempts until I finally got into it - and I honestly can't tell you what was different on that 5th time (maybe I was?). One thing I can tell you for sure, is that I've been loving them ever since and they have become an integral part of my annual pre-Christmas routine to get me into the festive mood.
