1/6
Banana Choc Gelati
PJs? Check! Sofa? Check! Rom-com? Check! All that’s missing from this cozy night in is a bowl of ice cream. And not just any ice cream - our Banana Choc Gelati is super fancy, super easy to make and all naturally sweetened.
2/6
Nutty Spaghetti Carbonara
If we conducted a poll on the world’s favorite comfort foods, spaghetti would surely rank pretty high. We will not be conducting a poll anytime soon, however, because we just got a whiff of this delicious pasta bowl - a vegan spin on a classic that still delivers the carbonara taste you love.
3/6
Sweet Potato Nachos with Lentil Chilli
There’s just something about the melty, crunchy, hot and spicy, finger-licking experience of eating nachos that makes us feel good. You’ll feel better with these vegan nachos, too, with the goodness of sweet potatoes and lentils to stave off cravings.
4/6
Banoffee Parfait
Bless the Brits who melded banana with toffee to create banoffee! It’s usually served as a pie form, but this lighter and healthier parfait dessert, with the caramel sweetened by medjool dates, loses none of the comfort factor.
5/6
Spaghetti & 'Meatballs'
Make meat-free Mondays simple by pre-making and freezing this simple gem - that way it will be ready whenever Monday-itis strikes! The “meatballs” are made from zucchini, chickpeas and oats, topped off with a rich tomato passata and vegan parmesan.
6/6
Vegan Cauliflower Mac & Cheese
Dan’s given this family favorite a healthy makeover using his not-so-secret weapon: cauliflower! It not only takes prime rock star position alongside the pasta, it’s also the key to creating a creamy cheese sauce (the cheesy flavor is thanks to nutritional yeast).
