BLONDIE SQUARES
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups chickpeas or white beans (1 can 250g can, drained and rinsed)
- 3/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/8 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup brown sugar or coconut sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup ground flax or quick oats (20g)
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 1/2 cup raisins
Put the chickpeas in a food processor or anything you usually use to make into really small pieces.
Once the chickpeas are small and close to mush toss them into a bowl and add all the remaining ingredients.
I mixed both oats and flax seeds together just to get best of both worlds.
You could also use vegan chocolate chips or cranberries or whatever makes your world spin instead of raisins.
8X8 Pan at 350 degrees for approximately 30 mins
Sorry I ate it all before I could take a picture of the final squares ...

Simple Vegan Biscuits
The Perfect Base For Any Flavor of Tea Biscuit
- 4 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 cup shortening
- 1 cup soy milk/almond milk
Mix everything but the type of milk your using in a bowl and mix well
Dig a well in the center of the mixture and then pour the milk alternative in the center
Slowly keep stirring in more of the flour mixture on the outer sides
Once everything is combined it should be dough like
Put flour down on a flat surface... flour your hands too
Use a rolling pin to flatten it out to about 1/2 inch thickness or just push it out with hands
Use either a cutter or a knife to to get out desired shape/size
Put on a baking sheet preferably lined with parchment paper
In the oven for about 15 minutes at 350 degrees.
They will rise more and look amazing, They are best fresh and I got about 10 out of this recipe but it will depend on your size and shapes....
Other Flavors You Could Do:
- Cinnamon with Raisins
- Cinnamon with Apple pieces added in
- Garlic powder added in and topped with vegan margarine
- Any herb or spice you like can be added

Vegan Stewie...thing
Sorry for the lack of a proper title if you have a better one please do tell....
Ingredients:
1 can Lentils ( 540 ml )
1 can Pineapple (540 ml )
5 medium sized potatoes
3-5 Tomatoes
Any other vegetables you love
Pepper to taste
Any other flavoring you personally like
Directions:
- In a pan on medium or even crock-pot if you would like, add a can of lentils and some pineapple and some of the juice of the pineapples to add to the flavor.
- Take your potatoes and peel them and dice them into small chunks, they will take the most amount of time to cook through, if you like them harder and not mush add them later (unless you like bigger chunks)
- The amount of tomatoes doesn't really matter, preferably fresh. Just dice them up or mush them, whatever you prefer...add those in and stir good
- I love pepper so that's my flavoring adds a good kick to it. Sometimes I like garlic sometime more parsley... whatever rocks your world...
I love this recipe because it's simple and easy to make and so easy to change and make it your own
Not most attractive picture but it works |

WHY...?!?!?
Excellent Question.....
Well I kind of got bored one night and decided to Google random things
and BAM! hit a vegan website, and started watching a bunch of YouTube
videos and did a bunch or research and want to definitely try going vegan.
I have been Vegetarian for the last 7-8 years... I think... A while, anyways
It's not because I am against eating animals... well to a certain degree but I am
not going to lunge across the table to stop you from eating it, I work in a
restaurant and I serve meat... I just don't consume it myself because I simply
can not swallow it even if I chew it till it's mush. I feel loads better without it
less tired and don't have to worry about GMO meat or other crap that's put into it
these days. I really want to go vegan though now because I have been more aware
of eggs and milk and how it's very strange how we consume it so much, even though
we get loads of protein/calcium from vegetables alone. We over consume and
over kill for something that isn't even good for us... seems strange. I love media
these days because they have a way around everything... You know most of the
reason drug companies exist is because of media and because of what the media
tells us we should eat..."The Canadian Food Guide" is what they preach but how
correct is this food guide? maybe you should look at the labels on the food you eat.
My general rule is if it's got a more than 10 ingredients or 3 or more ingredients that
I can not say or have no clue what it is it's probably not something I should be putting
in my body.
Anyways I could never find any simple Vegan recipes online so I decided that those who
I do find or make myself I shall post on this blog and share it so it saves you the troubles.
If your not into this vegan thing or still love to bake with eggs and milk well I have
another blog http://deliciouspinky.blogspot.ca/ <--- check it out if you like
Hope You Enjoy !
