Sugar-free Chocolate Cake

This is the best experiment I have ever done! I had a wicked craving for cake, and flung this together adapting from a bunch of recipes. While not a great fan of prunes, I have been told they add moisture to cakes, so I thought I’d try using some. While this recipe is labeled “sugar free“, prunes do contain a bit of sugar, however this is not processed or refined sugar. This recipe can be easily veganised as well [bracketed ingredients]. Sweetened only with Stevia, this cake is delicious, moist and soft.

Soy & Chilli Chicken Stew

This was a quick made-up dish when there was pretty much nothing left in the house. I grabbed what I had, banged it into a pot and it turned out pretty good, if not a little spicy! The sauce was great drizzled over rice.
