Greek Salad with Lemon-Oregano Dressing
A proper Greek salad does not need much help, just decent vegetables, salty feta, and a sharp dressing that wakes everything up. This version keeps the classic Mediterranean backbone and adds a simple lemon-oregano sauce, fresh for the burning summers we have in Belgium.
Planet-Saner Banana Bread with Skyr, Peanut Butter, and Dark Chocolate
This banana bread lands somewhere between breakfast and dessert, which is honestly where many of us live emotionally. Ripe bananas bring natural sweetness, skyr and eggs add protein, whole wheat flour and de-oiled almond flour keep the crumb hearty without turning it into a brick, and a little dark chocolate reminds me that restraint is nice in theory.
Chocolate Chickpea Blondies
These chocolate chickpea blondies are fudgy, softly chewy, and just decadent enough to make you forget they started with legumes. It is the sort of dessert that quietly smuggles in fiber and plant protein. A very Eat-Lancet kind of compromise.
Halloumi Veggie Burger
A Gordon Ramsay-inspired veggie burger with halloumi, zucchini, and carrots, built for people who want crisp edges, a juicy center, and enough flavor to stop missing the beef for one evening. It leans plant-forward, uses plenty of vegetables, and keeps the cheese where it actually earns its dramatic salary.
Paneer Tikka Masala
A cozy, family-friendly paneer tikka masala built from a quick homemade tomato-onion sauce and a ready-made tikka masala spice mix. It keeps the deep, creamy comfort people want from takeaway night, but with a more sensible ingredient list and a gentler planetary footprint than the usual meat-heavy version.
Tex-Mex Spice Mix
A quick homemade Tex-Mex spice mix that leans big on smoky warmth, skips the mystery additives, and takes about five minutes to make. It is punchy enough for beans, roasted vegetables, tacos, soups, and the occasional weeknight rescue mission when plain food starts feeling like a personal attack.
Quorn & Red Bean Burgers
A simple veggie burger built on minced quorn, mashed red beans, mustard seed, onions, and paprika. Crisp at the edges, tender in the middle, and far more convincing than many things currently marketed as food. No bun drama required, though the burgers can certainly cope.
Whole Wheat Spaghetti with Grated Tofu
A quick, plant-forward pasta where grated tofu cosplays as a hearty ragù (no it doesn't), whole wheat spaghetti brings the fiber & of course Parmesaaaaaaaaaaan.
Whole Wheat Naan
Soft, chewy whole wheat naan made with yogurt, olive oil, and a little yeast magic. It is skillet-cooked, planet-friendlier than takeout, and smug in the most delicious way.
Little-Garlic Fresh Tomato Sauce
A simple plant-forward tomato sauce with fresh Tomatoes, Onions, a restrained cameo from Garlic, Olive Oil, Basil, and Salt. It is bright, spoonable, and simply good.
