When I converted to a vegan diet a couple of years ago, I loved the experience of cooking with new ingredients. It was a lot of fun discovering new ways to make old classics vegan, as well as unearthing a whole host of new (and sometimes unpronounceable) ingredients.
Soon after, disaster struck! About six months after my initial switch to a completely vegan diet I was really ill, I came down with a sickness bug that wiped me out for a whole week. I didn’t really recover from it, everytime I tried to eat I was ill again. My body was basically rejecting everything I tried to feed it. After three months of barely eating, being in very close proximity to a toilet any time food was one the cards and some rather frustrating conversations with my GP, I managed to work out through an exclusion diet that gluten was public enemy number one. I was so relieved to have control of my body again and so frustrated at the lack of easy options available to me (I love a carb, bread and pasta were at the centre of most of my meals) that I fell off of the vegan bandwagon.
I slowly meandered my way back to veganism, but now I have to own up to being the “gluten-free, vegan” at any event involving food – which is rather embarrassing. Anyway, my propensity for baking tasty treats and generally loving all things kitchen-based gave rise to a nickname from my boyfriend… Snackalina! So here, on SnackalinaEATS, you will find plenty of my tastiest, go-to-food options. Sometimes they will be fancy schmancy for all your dinner party dreams, sometimes they will be speedy snackettes for those hunger pangs late at night.
