What’s a houmous-loving keto vegan to do when chickpeas are too carby? Experiment, of course! In this episode, I take on the challenge of creating a ridiculously low-carb houmous, testing different tofu variations, playing around with tahini and miso, and even whipping up a sweet chili version that turned out to be an absolute winner.
It’s a messy, garlicky, taste-testing adventure—complete with a blender betrayal, some questionable measuring techniques (who needs precision anyway?), and a moment where I nearly forgot the lemon. Again.
🎧 Listen in to discover:
🧄 "What is houmous unless it’s garlicky? I mean, really."
Best Moments:
✨ The "Blender Betrayal" Moment – When you had to abandon your beloved food processor because it wasn’t playing ball, and the hand blender came to the rescue.

Are plant-based meats ultra-processed, synthetic junk? Or is factory-farmed meat the real chemistry experiment?
In this episode, I break down the biggest myth about plant-based meats—the idea that they’re somehow "fake" compared to conventional meat. After my brother-in-law smugly called my veggie burger “synthetic,” I did some digging… and let’s just say, the irony is delicious.
We’ll look at what’s actually in plant-based meats, whether they count as ultra-processed foods, and—most importantly—what factory-farmed animals are pumped full of to keep them growing unnaturally fast. Spoiler alert: It’s not vitamins and love.
So, if you've ever had to defend your plant-based choices against someone eating hormone-fed, antibiotic-soaked meat, this one’s for you. Hit play and let’s set the record straight!

🌱 Soy – it's the go-to protein for vegans, right? Well… not exactly! 🤔 In this episode, I’m busting the myth that soy is a ‘vegan thing’ and exposing where it’s really going (hint: 🐄 cows eat way more of it than we do!). We’ll dive into the hidden soy in everyday foods 🍫🥖, the environmental impact of its production 🌍🔥, and even the shocking stories of activists who have lost their lives fighting against deforestation for soy farming 🏕️⚠️. Whether you’re a soy-lover or soy-skeptic, this one’s got something for you! 🎧✨

It’s 2025, the research is clear, the planet is burning, and yet people still act like veganism is some sort of fringe cult. In this episode, I’m unleashing my frustration at the wilful ignorance around plant-based eating. Why do people ignore the overwhelming evidence that meat is bad for health, the environment, and, oh yeah, the animals? Why do they cling to myths like “you’ll die without protein” while happily chowing down on ultra-processed junk?
We’ll talk about the science, the stubbornness, and the sheer ridiculousness of people burying their heads in the sand (probably next to a factory farm). But don’t worry—it’s not all doom and gloom. Expect a hefty dose of sarcasm, some well-placed eye rolls, and a few laughs as I dismantle the nonsense. If you’re tired of defending your vegan keto lifestyle to people who “could never give up cheese,” this episode is for you.
🎧 Tune in, share with your meat-eating mates (if they dare), and let’s get real about why the world needs to wake up.
