My name is Gani Shani (AKA: Ganish). I love eating, cooking, and experimenting with fresh, non-processed plant-based food.

Happy to have you here!

Hello!

Hello!

My name is Gani (nickname: Ganish) and I love eating, cooking and experimenting with fresh, non-processed plant-based food, while adopting a forgiving mindset and listening to my body’s needs. Hence the name of my blog, Vganish.

I live in the center of Tel Aviv with Guy, baby Tom and our dog Bella.

Guy is also a huge part of this blog - he programmed the whole thing by himself (!) and is still my tech guy to this day.

<Image cloudinaryId="v1612632618/about/DSCF29989_1.jpg" alt="vganish family picture in the kitchen" aspect="Vertical" />

I wasn't always vegan. I chose this lifestyle after gradually cutting down on dairy and meat products over the last few years. That’s why I understand the need for simple and delicious vegan(ish) recipes that are easy enough to fit into your daily routine. I also know that you don’t turn vegan overnight - It’s a journey that is not for everyone, but if you made it here it probably means that you’re up for the challenge!

**Being veganish is not about deprivation; it’s about enjoying fresh, responsibly-sourced plant-based food and celebrating what you can do with it.**

Since I started this blog, a good wind of change came into my life. I made a huge career shift, from a full-time lawyer to a food blogger and yoga teacher, but most importantly a mom! 

<Image cloudinaryId="v1612632372/about/DSCF2951.jpg" alt="Gani (Vganish) cooking in the kitchen" aspect="Vertical" />

People often wonder how do I manage to cook fresh plant-based food while keeping a busy schedule. It's actually quite simple and like many other aspects of life - it's all about balance. Join me on my journey and fall in love with the vegan kitchen. Learn how to stock your pantry and fridge, prep your meals, adopt beneficial habits for you and your family, and take care of your body and mind.

If you want to get a glimpse of our lives in Tel Aviv and see us practice yoga, travel and cook, you’re welcome to check out my [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/vganish/) feed and follow me on [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/Vganish-363255567453361/) and [Pinterest](https://www.pinterest.com/GaniShani/overview/).

I’m happy to have you here!

Being the only non-meat eaters in our families, Guy and I are always asked to bring a vegan dish to Friday dinner. It's not that my mom doesn't cook vegan for us (trust me- she makes way too much food!), but she is always anxious about the possibility that we won't have enough options.

Having to reinvent myself every weekend is not easy, but no one ever complains when I bring Siniya.

<Image cloudinaryId="v1565186282/vegan_pumpkin_siniya/DSC01868" alt="butternut squash and pumpkin siniya covered with tahini sauce before baking"/>
<Image cloudinaryId="v1565186306/vegan_pumpkin_siniya/DSC01875" alt="butternut squash and pumpkin siniya covered with tahini sauce after baking"/>


Siniya is a simple Mediterranean baked dish, traditionally made with ground lamb, roasted vegetables and tons of tahini sauce. The fun thing about it is that you can't go wrong. Any roasted veggies will work here. We like to use pumpkin, butternut squash or a mix of both.

<Image cloudinaryId="v1565186382/vegan_pumpkin_siniya/DSC01920" alt="a portion of the pumpkin siniya served in a black bowl"/>

Our go-to Mediterranean dish! Easy to make, full of flavor and covered with tahini sauce.

Let me just put it out there - I am not a chocolate kind of person. My brother defined it beautifully years ago: *"We are a vanilla family".* When given the choice we will always go for the light or fruity flavors and not for sweet rich chocolate 

<Image cloudinaryId="v1564675725/simple_raw_brownies/DSC01931-2" alt="brownies mixture in food processor"/>
<Image cloudinaryId="v1564662746/simple_raw_brownies/DSC01966" alt="brownies mixture with spatula"/>

With that in mind, it's understandable that brownies were never part of the dessert repertoire at our house. But as the years went by, and following a few nutrition and cooking classes that I took, I had the chance to discover some amazing things about raw cacao that made me super curious.

<Image cloudinaryId="v1564662756/simple_raw_brownies/DSC01954" alt="walnuts between two parchment sheets"/>
<Image cloudinaryId="v1564662852/simple_raw_brownies/DSC01999" alt="pressing the walnuts onto the brownies mixture"/>


As it turns out, cacao has always been considered special. Some cultures even named it the food of the gods or the fruit of love. Raw cacao is the richest source of antioxidants and magnesium that can be found in nature, and it contains a large number of other minerals and vitamins. It is therefore considered to be a super-food!

Raw cacao may decrease LDL (the bad cholesterol), lower high blood pressure and most importantly improve our mood and pleasure! I personally find that adding raw cacao nibs to my breakfast also helps my energy levels to increase in the morning (much like coffee).

<Image cloudinaryId="v1564662867/simple_raw_brownies/DSC02010" alt="folding the brownies flattened mixture in half"/>
<Image cloudinaryId="v1564662852/simple_raw_brownies/DSC02014" alt="sprinkling walnuts on folded brownies mixture"/>


This recipe is all about raw cacao! The additional ingredients are simply here to help the cacao be at its best. The dates and maple syrup act as the natural sweeteners, the almonds, and almond butter add to the soft texture and help bind everything up, the vanilla and Himalayan salt just combine wonderfully with chocolate and the walnuts are traditionally included in brownie recipes.

<Image cloudinaryId="v1564662901/simple_raw_brownies/DSC02031" alt="raw brownies cut to squares"/>

Gluten and refined-sugar free, no bake, easy and vegan! This rich and fudgy dessert is the answer to all your cravings!

Spring rolls are just meant to be eaten on warm days! They're colorful, chilling, yummy and light; everything our bodies crave in the summer.

The only issue is the long prepping time. As if it's not enough that you have to slice all these different vegetables, you also need to find the energy to roll them in rice papers, one after the other without messing up. It's just too much effort! 

<Image cloudinaryId="v1564233171/spring_roll_salad_with_tahini_dressing/DSC01729" alt="spring roll salad ingredients"/>


So I thought, why can't we just eat spring rolls and simply plate it differently? A spring-roll salad sounded like the answer to all my problems!

Make sure to add the edamame beans and hemp seeds for extra protein, and you'll get a wonderfully plant-based balanced meal. 

<Image cloudinaryId="v1564233138/spring_roll_salad_with_tahini_dressing/DSC01732" alt="spring roll salad flat lay picture"/>


For the dressing of the salad, I decided to prepare a Mediterranean take on Asian peanut butter dressing., and use tahini (sesame butter) instead. Over the past few years, I learned that peanut butter, and peanuts in general, are not the best for my body, but Guy is a real peanut butter fan so naturally, I get tempted sometimes. 

<Image cloudinaryId="v1564315880/spring_roll_salad_with_tahini_dressing/tahini" alt="tahini and tamari dressing for the salad"/>


This tahini-tamari dressing is a great fit for anyone dealing with any peanuts related sensitivity or allergy. The sticky texture and creamy effect of peanut butter are very similar to tahini, and once mixed with the rest of the dressing's ingredients it's actually very hard to tell the difference. 

Try it for yourself and remember that you can always choose to switch it up with classic peanut butter. 

<Image cloudinaryId="v1564233212/spring_roll_salad_with_tahini_dressing/DSC01785" alt="spring roll salad with tahini dressing on the side"/>

<Image cloudinaryId="v1564233093/spring_roll_salad_with_tahini_dressing/DSC01803" alt="closeup of spring roll salad with tahini dressing on top"/>

Summer days are getting hotter and stickier and it's just the time to eat lighter-cooling meals! Try this spring roll salad version for an easier take on the classic colorful dish.

Sometimes I feel so lucky to be living in a place like Tel Aviv; with warm weather, tons of vegan-friendly restaurants, endless yoga studios, great people and a short walk from the beach. 

<Image cloudinaryId="v1563646036/gluten_free_spinach_burrekas_pastry/DSC01428" alt="fresh greens: spinach, parsley and cilantro"/>
<Image cloudinaryId="v1563645833/gluten_free_spinach_burrekas_pastry/DSC01468" alt="green onions and shallots"/>

But actually, after spending the last couple of month away from home, it's clear to me that one of the best things about it is the availability and variety of fresh produce. Well, you know, it's only when something is taken away from you, you can really appreciate it! 

<Image cloudinaryId="v1563646126/gluten_free_spinach_burrekas_pastry/DSC01479" alt="chopped onion sauteed in the pan"/>

Since we came back I'm obsessed with everything green - cucumbers, spinach, parsley, cilantro, kale, and green onion are at the top of my list at the moment. Flavors, textures, and colors just taste, seem and smell better here.

Another thing about Tel Aviv is that it's a very small city, which naturally affects the foody community. When something becomes a trend, everyone knows about it within a few hours!

The latest health food trend in Israel, brought by the blogger Dvir Bar creator of [Wheat Out](https://www.wheatout.co.il/%D7%91%D7%95%D7%A8%D7%A7%D7%A1-%D7%93%D7%A4%D7%99-%D7%90%D7%95%D7%A8%D7%96/), is a gluten-free take off on a very famous Israeli dish - Burrekas (or Borek). Burrekas is a baked filled pastry made of a thin flaky dough. It comes in many different fillings but the most popular option is cheese. 

Dvir is a gluten-free food blogger who had the genius idea of using rice paper sheets to create a GF Burrekas! His recipe was an immediate success and once I came across it I knew I had to make a plant-based version.

<Image cloudinaryId="v1563646262/gluten_free_spinach_burrekas_pastry/DSC01606" alt="burrekas snails before baking"/>


The funny thing was, that by the time I wanted to make it every food store around the city was out of rice paper sheets. It became a local sensation, everyone wanted to try and make the GF Burrekas. Luckily, Guy was able to find some at the market and we had the chance to test and adjust this delicious vegan version!

I was always the kind of girl that loves something sweet with her afternoon coffee. 4 o'clock just translates to "afternoon pick-me-up" in my mind, and what's better than a coffee & cake combo?! Can you relate? 

<Image cloudinaryId="v1562838565/afternoon_plum_cake/DSC01226" alt="plums and oranges"/>
<Image cloudinaryId="v1562838588/afternoon_plum_cake/DSC01252" alt="sliced plums"/>


The real trick about afternoon snacks is keeping them light and simple. The point is to get a boost of energy so you can keep doing whatever it is you're doing for two or three more hours. You don't want to get distracted in the kitchen or fall asleep in the office because you ate something too heavy. 

<Image cloudinaryId="v1562838655/afternoon_plum_cake/DSC01293" alt="afternoon plum cake before the oven"/>
<Image cloudinaryId="v1562838699/afternoon_plum_cake/DSC01309" alt="afternoon plum cake before the oven with orange juice"/>


This cake is just perfect! Not too sweet, not heavy, stays fresh for a few days, and can easily be wrapped to go. 

<Image cloudinaryId="v1562838767/afternoon_plum_cake/DSC01332" alt="baked plum cake in the baking pan"/>
<Image cloudinaryId="v1562838734/afternoon_plum_cake/DSC01325" alt="baked plum cake in the baking pan"/>


I like to make this on a Saturday/Sunday so I'll have it ready for the week to come, but it's also a great brunch option and can be upgraded with some [whipped coconut cream](https://www.vganish.com/creamy_coconut_ice_cream/).

<Image cloudinaryId="v1562838599/afternoon_plum_cake/DSC01406" alt="piece of afternoon plum cake"/>

This cake is the best match for your afternoon coffee or tea! Super easy to make but very hard to resist!

There is nothing quite magnificent like fresh homemade pasta. Its soft tender taste and texture are just so different than store-bought dry pasta that it should probably be named differently.

<Image cloudinaryId="v1562078453/homemade_ricotta_spinach_ravioli_with_cherry_tomato_sauce/DSC00826" alt="mixing pasta flour with water and olive oil" caption="Using a fork to combine water and oil with the flour mixture"/>
<Image cloudinaryId="v1562078458/homemade_ricotta_spinach_ravioli_with_cherry_tomato_sauce/DSC00842" alt="kneading the pasta dough"/>


At the same time, since Guy's favorite thing to eat is pasta it's not rare to find the store-bought kind in our pantry; we are human after all. Still, every time we make the fresh-homemade kind we both agree that we have to do it more often.

<Image cloudinaryId="v1562078450/homemade_ricotta_spinach_ravioli_with_cherry_tomato_sauce/DSC00851" alt="rolling the pasta dough using the machine"/>
<Image cloudinaryId="v1562078024/homemade_ricotta_spinach_ravioli_with_cherry_tomato_sauce/DSC00875" alt="rolled pasta dough out of the pasta machine"/>


Ravioli, on the other hand, is kept for very special occasions. It's the festive version of homemade pasta and takes more effort and time. The fun thing is you could always make a large batch and keep it handy in your freezer.

This ricotta-spinach filling version is our personal favorite, it's very light and a great dinner option for warm summer days. The cherry tomato sauce is the perfect fit but even if you just drizzle some high-quality olive oil and garnish with fresh oregano it will be delicious.

This recipe has it all, it's plant-based, has an amazing tangy ricotta filling, a perfect al-dente texture and flavorful tomato sauce.

Homemade Ricotta - Spinach Ravioli With Cherry Tomato Sauce

This week I asked my Instagram community to decide which recipe will be posted on the blog next. It was a close fight between homemade ravioli and baked falafel; turns out that you guys are craving some healthy Mediterranean dishes.

<Image cloudinaryId="v1561653931/baked_falafel_with_color_coded_tahini/DSC00397" alt="falafel ingredients"/>
<Image cloudinaryId="v1561654010/baked_falafel_with_color_coded_tahini/DSC00407" alt="sprouted chichpeas" caption="Sproruted chickpeas"/>


Don't you just LOVE falafel? Baked, fried, in pita bread, with tahini or just with a fresh salad; it's all good! Not only that, it's a great source of plant-based protein.

<Image cloudinaryId="v1561654035/baked_falafel_with_color_coded_tahini/DSC00425" alt="processed chickpeas" caption="Processed chickpeas"/>
<Image cloudinaryId="v1561654022/baked_falafel_with_color_coded_tahini/DSC00451" alt="processed chickpeas" caption="Falafel mix"/>


There is however one very common problem when consuming chickpeas or other legumes - it could easily upset your stomach.

<Image cloudinaryId="v1561654124/baked_falafel_with_color_coded_tahini/DSC00496" alt="rolling the falafel ball in sesame seeds"/>
<Image cloudinaryId="v1561654137/baked_falafel_with_color_coded_tahini/DSC00513" alt="rolled falafel balls"/>


This recipe was carefully developed and tested many times, and I learned that - 

- The quality of the chickpeas (not canned or old);
- The long soaking period;
- More frequent rinsing and draining; and-
- The sprouting of the beans.

ALL MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE!

We are talking about the full package deal - Falafel balls that taste like the real (fried) thing; a feast for the eyes (especially when combined with the colorful tahini dips) and even leave you with a happy gut! Just make sure you don't eat them all before they get to the table...

So, we're back in Tel Aviv, back home; and guess what? after all this time off from our 'real' life I'm still not sure what I want to do when I grow up. Instead of dawdling over that feeling I decided to take control and figure things out one day at a time. 

<Image cloudinaryId="v1561145842/how_to_choose_my_life_path/new_collage_2" alt="sitting in namaste pose" caption="Arches National Park, Utah"/>


Since it was obvious I'm not going back to the firm and ready to leave my career as a lawyer behind me, my mind was set on one thing - **what do I want to study next?** My desire to learn new things is never-ending. Just over the past couple of years I :

- Studied to become a Bach Flower practitioner;
- Took a variety of nutrition-focused classes at a training school for practitioners of Integrative Medicine;
- Attended many yoga retreats and workshops;
- Attended an Ayurveda immersion weekend in Colorado;
- Participated in a vegan cheese and superfood workshop;

And took many other seminars and classes.

<Image cloudinaryId="v1561123975/how_to_choose_my_life_path/DSCF8460" alt=""Utthita Parsvasahita pose from the front" caption="Hanging Lake, Colorado"/>


But this time felt different, I wanted to make sure I'm being really honest with myself when choosing my path. Ever since I started Vganish I felt that I'm heading in the right direction, but what would be the thing to complete my puzzle and help me choose my life-path?

**YOGA**.

I could just feel it running through my body.

Through my bloodstream and into my heart.

The signs were all there and I just had to listen.

<Image cloudinaryId="v1561145840/how_to_choose_my_life_path/new_collage_3" alt="collage of yoga poses in arches national park" caption="Arches National Park, Utah"/>


**I want to be a yoga teacher. I want to help people connect with their life path through this amazing practice that in just two years changed my life and perspective. **


So once again I followed my heart, and this time it got me to a small and cozy yoga studio in Tel Aviv. Once I stepped in I knew this is where I needed to be; I knew that I found my next piece of the puzzle.

<Image cloudinaryId="v1561124098/how_to_choose_my_life_path/DSCF8614" alt="tree pose" caption="Arches National Park, Utah"/>


I will be starting my yoga teacher training this fall. In that small studio in Tel Aviv and I can't wait to share this experience with you.

Happy International Day of Yoga and summer solstice to all! Inviting you to celebrate the gift of yoga.

Discovering my true life-path; changing my lifestyle and taking care of myself.

Choosing My Life-Path

As temperatures in Tel Aviv are rising, all I crave is cooling and frozen foods.
This coconut ice-cream combo has it all:

**3 different amazing textures;**

**Much needed cooling effect;**

**Creamy rich flavor;**

**It's Plant-based;**

**& Perfectly sweet.**

So, what are you waiting for?

<Image cloudinaryId="creamy_coconut_ice_cream/DSC00924" alt="topping the coconut ice cream with a spoon of coconut whipped cream"/> 

Summer days are here and I don't know about you but I'm just sticky all the time! Ice-cream is just the perfect food for this weather and this creamy coconut flavor is on the top of my cravings list!

Jewish holidays are **always **about food! 

When you come to think about it, it makes a lot of sense - Food brings people together! When people eat, they are instantly happier and calmer; both are not easy to achieve when serious family time is involved! 

<Image cloudinaryId="amazing_vegan_kanafeh/DSC00674" alt="vegan Kanafeh"/> 


Shavuot is no different. This holiday is all about eating dairy foods.

Once again, the vegan challenge kicks in and the goal is (as always) making a delicious dish that makes everyone wonder if it's plant-based or not.

This year I decided to go with a middle-eastern favorite dessert - Kanafeh. It's easy to make, it's not too sweet and it's soooo pretty. Perfect for a festive and light dinner.

<Image cloudinaryId="amazing_vegan_kanafeh/DSC00735" alt="one piece of Kanafeh"/>

A middle eastern pastry layered with homemade vegan ricotta cheese, soaked with sweet syrup and topped with pistachios. It can't get any better than this!
