Fruity Curried Mayo Sauce or Dip

September 16, 2018 By elviira 2 Comments

“Insanely delicious!” declared a friend of mine, when I gave her a sample of this sauce. “This is reeeeeally good!” my husband exclaimed when he tasted this sauce for the first time. They’re not the only ones. I fell head over heels in love with this incredible condiment myself once I’d perfected the recipe. And I’m sure you too, dear reader, will be crazy about this superb sauce!

Is it even possible to achieve sweetness and fruitiness in a sauce without adding sugar? Yes, it is! This healthy, full-bodied sauce or dip is sweet with a slight tang and a hint of curry flavor. It’s my favorite dip with chicken wings, but you can also use it with just about any kind of meat, fish, and veggies.

Unusually Fluffy Muffins (Dairy-Free)

February 1, 2015 By elviira 22 Comments

This is one of the recipes I’ve wanted to publish for a very long time since I really haven’t had any dairy-free basic muffin recipe. I just love basic recipes because they leave lots of space for variations. You can let your imagination fly and add vanilla extract or other extracts, berries, nuts, chocolate chips, cocoa powder, berry powders, sugar-free jam or flavorings or anything you happen to have in your pantry at that moment. Moreover, basic muffins are great bases for frostings. Make a gorgeous and luscious frosting and let it shine as a beautiful crown on top of the muffin!

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!

Elviira’s Krunchy Grain-Free Granola (Dairy-Free)

April 26, 2014 By elviira 20 Comments

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.

Sugar-Free Cranberry Orange Sauce (Vegan)

November 12, 2013 By elviira 4 Comments

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.
