No Yeast Elderberry Dirty Chai Sweet Rolls

10 June, 2016 by Giselle Rochford 18 Comments

Vegan Elderberry Dirty Chai Sweet Rolls via @ExSloth | ExSloth.com

I have to say that these recipe challenges keep getting harder and harder but oddly, more rewarding. I was legitimately stumped when I saw the ingredients for this one. I mean, coffee beans, peppercorns and elderberry jam. What the eff could I make with all of those things? Well, as it turns out, those three

3 Ingredient Fruit & Rosemary Popsicles (Vegan, Gluten Free, Paleo) via @ExSloth | ExSloth.com

You guys. I’ve been planning a new series called Ice Cream Sundays for the last couple weeks and I seriously can’t wait any longer. Originally, I wanted to start on the 20th which is the first day of summer. But it’s been consistently warm for a couple weeks now and I’ve been craving all the ice cold treats.

Lima Bean Falafel Wraps with Overnight Pickled Veggies (Vegan) via @ExSloth | ExSloth.com

This week marks the last entry of the first phase of The Marinate Recipe challenge and I have to admit, I almost decided not to participate. I was completely stumped when I saw the ingredients for this week: lima beans, Himalayan sea salt and pickling spices. But after a lot of brainstorming and a few

It’s official. I’m retroactively making last week plant based protein week. First, I shared 15 protein-filled vegan breakfast recipes, then these pinto bean brownies and finally this coconut quinoa porridge. And today I’ve got this Peanut Butter & Berry Quinoa Smoothie for ya. [Tweet “PB & Berry Quinoa Smoothie #vegan #glutenfree #plantbasedprotein”]

Easy Roasted Veggie Pizza Bites

Roasted veggie pizza bites with sweet potato, zucchini and eggplant via @ExSloth | ExSloth.com

Thanks to the plethora of wraps I had leftover after making this breakfast pizza, I feel like I’ve been having some sort of pizza every day for the last couple weeks.  You’d think I’d be tired of pizza by now but I can never get enough. So it should be no surprise that I have

Vegan Cranberry Orange Oatmeal Cookie Sticks

Crunchy Vegan Cranberry Orange Oatmeal Cookie Bars that are sweet and tart and perfect for a healthy afternoon snack via @ExSloth | ExSloth.com

I know. I know. I justtt shared a cookie recipe on the blog a few weeks ago, yet here I am with another one today. Some would call this overkill, but let’s be real. Cookies are basically a food group to me. In fact, I’m actually surprised I lasted this long to share these vegan

Sweet & Salty Avocado Breakfast Pizza

Sweet & Salty Avocado Breakfast Pizza with strawberries, apples, figs, walnuts & balsamic vinegar (Vegan) via @ExSloth | ExSloth.com

If you follow me on Instagram, you’d know that I’m a little obsessed with toast at the moment. I mean what’s not to love? It’s quick, customizable and combines two of my favourite things: carbs and toppings. But ever since I made these breakfast tacos last week, I’ve been reaching for tortillas instead of bread

Vegan Breakfast Tacos with Mango Pineapple Salsa

These vegan breakfast tacos are filling and flavourful, especially when topped with this super simple mango pineapple salsa via @ExSloth | ExSloth.com

It’s the first week of May which means Cinco de Mayo is coming in fast, so we’re gonna chat about that today. Actually, we’re not because I don’t really know anything about it. Like St. Patrick’s Day, Cinco de Mayo isn’t exactly something we celebrate at home in Trinidad. So instead we’re gonna talk about

Paleo Vegan Nut Free Brownie Cookies

26 April, 2016 by Giselle Rochford 37 Comments

These vegan brownie cookies have a light crust/crunch on the outside but are soft, chewy and basically brownie-like on the inside. Plus, they're made with coconut flour and sunflower seed butter so they're gluten-free, nut-free and paleo via @ExSloth | ExSloth.com

I haven’t posted a brownie recipe in a while so I toyed with the idea of coming up with a new one to share today. But really, nothing can top my vegan brownie recipe in my eyes, or the gingerbread version, so I decided to try my hand at brownie cookies instead. Paleo Vegan Nut Free Brownie

Open-Faced Vegan Chickpea Salad Sandwiches

Easy Vegan Open-Faced Chickpea Salad Sandwich for Recipe ReDux via @ExSloth | ExSloth.com

I realised this week that the last time I shared a savoury recipe was over a month ago. (It was a falafel salad if you were wondering). Since one of my goals this year was to share at least one savoury recipe a month I figured it was about time I got on that. So, without

Orange Grapefruit Chia Seed Marmalade + 4 Citrus-Packed Vegan Recipes

Orange Grapefruit Chia Seed Marmalade + 4 citrus-packed vegan recipes via @ExSloth | ExSloth.com

As I mentioned in my last post, spring and summer mean lots of smoothies and even more salads. What I didn’t mention, but was probably obvious from the links in the roundup, is that citrus is basically everywhere during this time of year as well. I’m not complaining though because I never seem to get

Vegan Orange Poppy Seed Baked Donuts

Vegan Orange Poppy Seed Baked Donuts via @ExSloth | ExSloth.com

Sunday marked the first official day of spring and the weather was gloriously spring-like. So I immediately started thinking of spring-time recipes to share on the blog. My first thought was ice cream or anything lemon poppy seed. But by Monday, it was cold AF in Waterloo again and there’s supposed to be a storm
