Rhubarb Chutney (Vegan)

June 10, 2013 By elviira 12 Comments

This sugar-free rhubarb chutney is rhubarb lover’s tangiest dream! Also suitable for garlic lovers. And lovers in general. (If you don’t care about some garlicky fumes swirling around…)

For not the biggest friends of tongue-tickling tangy flavors, I give some suggestions for mellower variations in the end of the post. Naturally, I give a few alternatives for garlic, too, in case garlic gobbling is not your cup of tea.

You can color the chutney with bright hues — like I have done in the photo above. I give some ideas for very natural colors in the end of the post. Actually, throughout the post you can see the photos of these colorful creations.

It’s hard to believe that something this delicious is so simple, and vegan! I usually use tons of organic dairy products, especially heavy cream, but lately I’ve been into coconut milk because of its smooth and naturally sweet flavor.

This succulent dessert — or breakfast — is topped with delicious coconut milk sauce with a hint of vanilla. The sauce consists of a mere two ingredients! Even better, this simple fruit salad is surprisingly low in carbs.

Simple and Easy Low-Carb Lemon Curd

May 31, 2012 By elviira 24 Comments

I had never made lemon curd before since I’m not that big fan of lemon flavor. The idea of simple low-carb lemon curd was however so tempting, that I wanted to try and develop it. Many lemon curd recipes are quite complicated. Separating eggs, grating some lemon zest, melting the butter, using a double boiler, … I wanted something simple and easy. I think I reached my goal, at least I immediately fell in love with this low-carb lemon curd and I wasn’t even a fan of lemon flavor before! I hope you like it as well.
