What could be more comforting than a mug of hot, delicious drink on a chilly day? – A mug of healthy hot, delicious drink! Just get it cozy and leave the wind and frost outside. Sit back and grab a mug of one of these dreamy drinks!
I decided to post a series of hot drinks which are perfect for the holiday time but also any time when you need some warmth and comfort. All these drinks are vegan and paleo, to make them suitable for as many people as possible. I wanted to keep the drinks low in carbs as well, naturally without sacrificing any flavor.
But first, let me introduce Hot Cardamom Chocolate, an unbelievably creamy and delicious drink where dark cocoa powder gives the ultimate chocolaty flavor, coconut cream makes the drink rich and thick and where cardamom provides spiciness and extra warmth. I have to say that I seldom have tasted anything that creamy, which is vegan as well!

Before I’ll start posting crazy Halloween recipes, I want to give you quickly two extremely easy recipes for good old meatloaf in a mug. The first variation of these one-pot one-serving wonders is simple and tasty, and the second variation is really exciting! Have you ever thought pumpkin meatloaf with exotic, warm spices? Believe me, it’s a success! Pumpkin also makes the meatloaf juicy and moist. Both variations are egg-free, and the pumpkin meatloaf is also dairy-free.

I came up with this simplest granola a couple of weeks ago. Our family was missing some breakfast alternatives and I thought we hadn’t have good old granola — or müsli like my husband calls it even it’s baked — for a very long time mainly because there simply don’t exist worthy alternatives for healthy granola.

If you are a low-carber, following a gluten-free and grain-free diet, the traditional hot cereal or porridge for breakfast is not an option. So I developed this simple and healthy alternative, which is also tasty and full of nutrients.
Topped with berries, sugar-free syrup, or with a good pat of organic butter, it’s a warming and satisfying breakfast, especially now during the cold wintertime.

Be prepared to Thanksgiving and the holiday season with this delicious low-carb relish! This sweet and tart sauce, with all its intense flavors, is a perfect companion to turkey, chicken or ham. In fact, to any meat or fish.
This is a great make-ahead sauce. You can prepare it a day or two before, the flavors get even better when they can marinate for some time. Just reheat the sauce before serving so that all the tiny crystals of erythritol dissolve. If you prefer to serve the sauce cold, I give some hints how to sweeten it in that case.

Luscious Low-Carb Lavender Lemon Bars — that is a lengthy name! I just wanted to choose as describing name for these extra delicious and extra tangy tidbits as I could. Actually, I wanted to include the word ‘little’ there as well, but that would have been an overkill. Moreover, you can cut as big or small bars as you want to. I think I prefer small bars anyway, since these delicacies are heavy stuff what comes to both taste and richness.

There are those rainy summer days when I don’t want to leave the house but get warm and cozy inside. Maybe I heat the oven and bake some of my all-time favorite munchies for comfort. This superb crisp bread is one of my all-time favorite munchies. Crunchy, tasty and crispy, without gluten and as healthful as possible, it might become one of your all-time favorite munchies as well.
Munch this crunchy crisp bread just like that, or with butter and cheese. For real comfort, top it with sugar-free strawberry or raspberry jam. My favorite way to eat this bread, in addition to load a slice with butter and cheese, is to crumble it over my breakfast yogurt — it’s just like granola, but not sweet, though.

Happy 4th of July!
