Afternoon favourite. She paints. I sit and have a coffee. Though today I'm out of almond milk so wondering if I should have an iced americano. . . #growingwithA #mommytimes #coffeelover #itscoffeetimeagain #veganissues

Version 2.0 (added and improved on yesterday's impromptu version.) . . *Peanut butter dark chocolate bites* . . Recipe for 8 small lime sized laddus: Add the following to a mixer jar. - 2 tablespoons of peanut butter (I had a batch I made last week.) - 1.5 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder - 8 pitted dates (used: Baba fresh Iranian organic dates) . . Pulse. Pause. Pulse. Scrape. . . Add: - 2 tablespoons of roasted groundnuts. (You can add it in the above step but this gives it a crunch while eating.) . . Pulse. - Add 2 tablespoons of rolled oats (I think I'll dry roast them next time.. Better flavour!) . . Pulse. Or just mix with hand and make into balls. . . Many people have asked when I do all this with a toddler and no help (or the cool term nanny!). I have someone who takes care of my daughter for an hour every evening. I now do my baking and quick stuff like this while she paints etc. Sometimes she'll even help me bake by being the main mixer! (A lot does fall on the floor but it's fun.) . . #whatveganseat #toddlermom #healthytreats #toddlerfriendlyrecipes #mommade #veganamma #veganinthekitchen #nocruelty #compassionatecooking #healthyfata #energyballs

Yummiest ever! Peanut butter + peanuts + dates + cocoa powder. . . Recipe: Big spoonful of homemade peanut butter (no sweetener, no salt) Handful of roasted peanuts (next time will add it later so that they stay crunchy!) A tablespoon of cocoa powder 6 pitted dates. . . Pulse. Pause. Pulse. Pause. Scrape. Done! . . @bayiravimani - should stay good for school dubba. Might not be heavy enough though. . . #whatveganseat #veganinthekitchen #toddlerfriendlyrecipes #quicksnacks #yumyum #healthyfats #proteinbite #chocolate #healthy

Saying goodbye to summer and welcome to the monsoons. Mango salsa (the thing I miss the most about summers!) Carrot paratha baked in the oven to become chips! Salad with Asian peanut butter dressing. . . #totalyum #veganamma #veganinthekitchen #vegan #whatveganseat #compassionatekitchen #healthylunch

My favourite season is here! Hopefully. . . #monsoons #Mumbairains #cyclonevayu #Mumbaimonsoons #greenmumbai

Chocolate cookies that are healthy and importantly, yummy. √ whole wheat √ cocoa powder √ jaggery powder √ coconut butter . . Recipe just worked. Tweaked an earlier recipe. (Reduced wheat and replaced with cocoa -- proportions once I ratify with another bake next week.) . . These are hard/crisp on the outside and dene fudgy inside. And I might have found my fav vegan cookies! . . #compassionatekitchen #veganamma #healthytreats #healthycookies #butterfree #crueltyfree #nocowharmedduringthemaking #nocholesterol #plantbased #plantpowered
