A vegan meatloaf recipe made with chickpeas, loads of vegetables, herbs, spices and a couple of sauces. This is a great tasting vegan meatloaf with no meat which can be made gluten free too.

This chocolate brownie slice is another delectable treat I made for my 5 year old’s birthday party. It is once again food allergy or food intolerance(s) friendly. Gluten free, dairyfree, soy free, vegetarian and deliciously moist! In fact, it can be made paleo too (just check the ingredients of the chocolate chips are paleo too and you can make this recipe paleo). Another awesome feature of this recipe is it is very easy to make especially if you have a stand mixer but you certainly do not need one to successfully make this recipe, just make sure the ingredients are well combined.
