I was rather skeptical. Another vegan-in-training tried making meringues with it and lets just say it was a bit of a disaster! Anyway, not … Continue reading ‘Perfect Vegan Brownies’ by Fried Dandelions

However, I was very pleasantly surprised - these were pretty good! They had nice simple ingredients all of which … Continue reading Jamie Oliver’s Vegan Brownies
