Why roam far afield, when good things are so close at hand!
Warum in die Ferne schweifen, wenn das Gute liegt so nah!

Vegan Menu, Recipes, Photos & Story by Allyouneedisveg.de;-)

My basic idea when developing this mediterranean-inspired, three-course, latesummer menu is to use exclusively plant-basedingredients organically grown in Portugal. The ingredients currently offered to us by the season and the local market underlie my menu planning. With a relatively small ecological footprint, I conjure up three creative, tasty dishes that anyone can cook at home.

The menu comprises the following main ingredients: sweet potato, spelt flour, agave syrup, carob powder, chickpeas, citrus fruits, figs, almonds, bananas from Madeira, courgettes and Carolino rice. When planning my menu, I ensured that all my ingredients were of vegetable origin, produced locally and organically, and hence cruelty-free.
