Hot chocolate(basic recipe)
1 large, or 2 smaller cups
2 dl non dairy milk(not rice milk â preferably soy) *
1-2 tsp sugar(preferably brown)
3 tsp coca powder
Add the soy milk to a pan with a thick bottom. Add sugar and cocoa powder.
Heat up and whisk as often as possible. It gives the cocoa a better taste and texture.
Remove the pan from the stove after the cocoa has reached the boiling point.
Pay close attention right before it starts to boil â soy milk makes a lot of foam and bubbles, just like cow milk!
* Note if your milk is added sugar or not, and adjust the sugar accordingly. Taste it!
Soy or almond milk is best suited. Rice milk tends to make the cocoa thin and watery.
You can also try to add tiny amounts of cinnamon, vanilla or cayenne pepper for a more exiting cocoa. (just remember to use tiny amounts at first, so you don't get something that taste more like bad medicine than hot chocolate!)

Let me know what you find outjorats said:That looks yummy! I'll write to uncle bens to find out if it's vegan.
I couldn't FIND anything that wasn't vegan, unless they have "hidden" it under things like "spices" or something like that.

Homemade chocolate(vegan)
You need:
Coca mass
Cocoa butter
Coconut oil
Sugar*
Vanilla powder
Chop up the cocoa mass & cocoa butter, and melt it in a water bath.
Use approximately twice as much cocoa mass as you use cocoa butter.
When it's melted, add a spoon of coconut oil, a couple tsp sugar, and a tsp vanilla powder.
Add to a mold, bowl or similar and refridgerate.
* you can use whatever sweetener you want to probably, I changed the recipe slightly due to that.

Vegan marzipan
Almond marzipan
Pistacchio marzipan. They look strange and they turned out a bit softer than they should, but they are yummy!
(Example)
100g powdered sugar
100g ground almonds*
Water
Mix ground almonds with powdered sugar in a bowl. Add a tiny amount of water at a time until you get a firm "dough" that are easy to form into balls. Make them into the forms you want and enjoy!
* using pistacchio nuts also work well!

1 can s&w tomatoes with rosted garlic
1 can mutti crushed tomatoes
3 stems of celery, sliced
1 large carrot, diced
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped/shredded
1 small handful coriander, finely chopped
~5dl water with bouillon
a couple handfuls of macaroni(optional)
fry the onions and garlic for a few minutes until soft, add in the carrots and celery and fry for a couple more minutes. crush in the bouillon(unless you mix it in boiled water first - that's fine too).
add the tomatoes and macaroni. boil for 5-10 minutes(depending on the pasta).
add the cilantro in the last couple of minutes. Season to taste & eat!

Wow it's long since I've written here now :shock: :shock:
I've been mostly making the same dinners over and over in the last few months.. But I've been baking a bit more, so I have a couple recipes there. Recipes to come.

Ingredients for 4-6 portions
5-6 strawberries
225 grams all purpouse flour + more for when you're rolling out the dough.
75 grams sugar
1 teskje baking powder
150 grams vegan margarine
0,75 deciliter soy milk
2 tbsp pearlized sugar
Serving:
Fresh strawberries
Coconutcream*
How to:
Preheat the stove to 180 degrees C. Line a tray with baking parchment.
Rinse the strawberries and cut into small pieces. Store in freezer while you prepare the rest of the dough.
Combine flour, sugar and baking powder in a bowl. Cut in the margarine, and crumble it into the flour with your fingers.
Stir in the milk. If it's too wet, you can add more flour**
Fold in the strawberries.
Add flour to the kitchen bench and roll out the dough to about 1 cm thickness.
Press out circles for about 5-7 centimeters with a cookie cutter.
Divide the cakes over the tray. Sprinkle with pearlized sugar.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until they start to get golden on the edges.
Cool off on a grid.
Serve with coconut cream and fresh strawberries.
** I find the dough usually get really wet because of the strawberries, so it might be a good idea not to add all the liquid at once.
*Coconutcream:
1 can coconut milk
2 tbsp powdered sugar
Put the coconut milk in the fridge for at least 24 hours, so the cream separates from the liquid in the milk.
Open the can and dig out the firm cream on top(I find that digging a small hole down to the water and then pouring that out works best. Then the cream you are going to use won't get mixed with the water again).
Add the cream to a bowl. Add the powdered sugar. Whisk together with a mixer (?). This don't take long.
