Thai-spiced Butternut Squash Soup

When butternut squash first became fashionable I just couldn’t understand what all the fuss was about – I didn’t really like its sweet taste. But knowing it was good for me (being extremely rich in vitamins and flavonoids etc) I persevered and devised this soup. I’m so glad I did because now it’s one of […]

Garlic Gram Pancakes

These pancakes are something special. I love these things so much that in the week I developed the recipe I made them no fewer than four times!Emily *recipe first featured on Veganuary

Med Veg and Tofu Scramble

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 and Warm Lentil Salad

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

Avocado Toasts

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 […]

Scotch Broth

Autumn. Cold winds. Rain. Hail. Even a few moments of snow yesterday between bursts of hot sunshine. Walking on the South side of the hill in the woods it is suddenly no longer autumn but the end of summer. Off with jackets, faces to the sun then round the corner into the North and winter, […]

Vegan ‘Chicken’ Noodle Soup

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

Coconut, Cauliflower and Chickpea Soup

The coconut and tomato in this recipe dance and twirl so delightfully through the cauliflower and chickpeas (garbanzo beans) to provide a lip-lickin’ nurturing meal. It’s simple (less is more in this case) and incredibly satiating. Enjoy…Trinity 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

Kale Wrap

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

Asian Fusion Salad

I don’t normally like fruit in savoury dishes, pineapple on a pizza is a no no, but I need to push my taste boundaries and so I included a fruit in this dish. I was absolutely amazed with the results, I ended up making more dressing just so I could dip more plums into it! […]

Celeriac Bisque

The soup was as creamy as creamy can be, and was the easiest soup to make. I followed my theory of the “one” soup recipe, which uses one of each ingredient. You can never go wrong as everything you add is one of something. My Dad even remarked that this ‘soup’ was the best tasting […]

Porcini and Sweetcorn Quiche

My favourite item in a picnic hamper without a doubt is a porcini and sweetcorn tofu quiche. The filling can either be used in a quiche or as a filling for a pasty, both taste so good.Jasmine x

Three Lentil Soup

This soup is so simple to make and you can make it while your bread is baking. You’ll have lunch on the table in no time. The best thing is, if you’re using a bread maker you can put your feet up with a cuppa while the lentils are cooking. The soup will easily feed […]

Roasted Butternut Soup with Parsley Pesto

I love butternut squash; in risotto, pasta and especially soup. It roasts beautifully and blends like a dream to create a silken soup that is perfect for the summer-to-autumn transitional season. This dish is so easy to make, you don’t even have to peel and chop the butternut squash- simply bake it whole in it’s […]

Pea and Courgette Fritters with Smoky Tomato Chutney

It’s that time of the week again; I look inside my fridge and there’s very little left! So I rustled up some store cupboard ingredients and grated a lonely looking courgette to create these scrummy pea and courgette fritters. Within ten minutes, you can also create a smokey, fiery pan-chutney with juicy ripe tomatoes, flavoursome […]

Italian Bean and Pasta Soup

For me, this is the perfect soup for Autumn Winter. It’s hearty, warming and filling. It’s also low prep and super cheap to make (even if you use quality organic ingredients!) We often serve it for Saturday lunch, but it also makes a great week day dinner, served with crusty seeded bread or warm garlic […]

Lightly Spiced Parnsip Soup

This soup is sweet, silky smooth, warming and oh so yummy! For me, this is another soup that’s perfect for Autumn/Fall. The spice I used was Garam Masala, which gives the soup a gentle hint of Indian curry. Lil’ L loves it, so hopefully other children will too.
