Ratatouille is often served as a side dish, but for me, cooked like this, it’s the star of the show. Roasting the ingredients in one pan not only makes this a quick and easy dish to make but gives a depth of flavour that’s very rich and satisfying. Serving it with quinoa (complete in all […]

It is normally sold wrapped in old newspaper and is a firm favourite among consumers across the nation. Various spice mixes exist; this […]

My own favourite scramble and my go-to savoury breakfast dish is inspired by a visit to Wayward, a well-known vegan café in Seattle, Washington. Their herby Mediterranean-style tofu breakfast really stole my heart, and I’ve been making my own scramble like theirs ever since. This recipe makes a fragrant, protein-rich scramble that’s great with fresh […]
Fennel! It’s crunchy, sweet, and I can’t get enough of it. It’s the star of this salad, and works really well with its partners: celery, green lentils, and apple cider vinegar.Emily x
Is it me, or is avocado toast everywhere lately? It’s been a good while since my various news feeds haven’t had some variant of this dish on it: with smushed-up avocado, or sliced-up, or somewhere between smushed and sliced. Anyway, here’s my take on avocado toast. I like my avocados semi-smushed, on rye, with a […]
Made using up leftover Redwood turkey roast here but you could also use a pack of ‘cheatin chicken’ or indeed leave out the meat sub altogether – it’s the veg that makes it delicious anyway!Lucy x
Cauliflower and Tahini Salad
This is a thick, creamy, nutritious dish that serves delightfully well as part of a salad buffet. Like most vegetables, cauliflower is really good for you and an essential addition to a healthy diet. The thick tahini sauce complements it perfectly as a nutrient rich, protein dense, satiating and delicious addition to the plate.Trinity x
This kale wrap is exactly the sort of thing that I might have to give me a super nutrient boost (although, not forgetting that it makes an excellent every day salad too). Trinity x
If you enjoy porridge then this is a lovely super-easy alternative, and one you can eat cold.
You could argue that everything is portable but I don’t want to carry multiple items to and from work every day. My solution is homemade vegan muesli, which I transport in a nifty 2 pot stacker with vegan yoghurt. When I get to work I mix the two together and voila breakfast is served! As […]
