One Pan Turmeric Rice and Beans

January 7, 2021 by Louise 2 Comments

There are so many things to love about this Turmeric Rice and Beans dish. Firstly, it’s a one pan meal which makes me just as happy as when someone says “sheet cake” – it’s in the same league, they are one pan, one mess wonders.  Music to my kitchen sink.

Tomato and Basil Chickpea Pasta

November 10, 2020 by Louise

It’s not everyday that I come across a really easy recipe with simple ingredients that doesn’t require a lot of editing from me. And sometimes I think I come across them – on paper they appear promising only to be let down by the flavour in the end. And that is why I am SO…

Vegan Spaghetti Bolognaise

August 11, 2020 by Louise

This Vegan Spaghetti Bolognaise recipe has its own kind of love language going on. It’s talking in fried mushrooms and simmered tomatoes and singing in cloves and carrots and dancing in red wine and mixed herbs. Oh yes, you’ll feel the love with each mouthful of this moreish vegan dish. Nevermind the spaghetti, you can…

Roasted Butternut and Red Pepper Soup

March 23, 2020 by Louise

You may tell from the number of soup recipes on this website, that I really enjoy the idea of nutritious liquid in a bowl (or cup in this case). The toasted and buttered piece of ciabatta may also play a role in my soup-loving ways, for what is a soup without something to dunk in…

Introducing this delightful vegan pasta recipe with all sorts of twisty, tangy, heavenly flavours. Say hello to ~ Spicy Romesco Pasta.

Easy Vegetarian Lasagne

December 11, 2019 by Louise

As part of my family’s effort to eat less meat, I have been trying out all sorts of vegetarian and vegan meals. Not the easiest project however! Trying to make meals that are vegetarian / vegan which are also kid-friendly sends a bead or two of sweat down my forehead, far too regularly. It is…

5-ingredient butternut soup and toast

5-Ingredient Butternut Soup

December 6, 2018 by Louise

Probably the easiest soup you’ll ever make. In fact, no, it IS the easiest soup you will ever make. There are not frills to this 5-ingredient butternut soup but the taste is amazing! I always maintain that adding more ingredients to a dish doesn’t always make it taste better. Less ingredients means you get to…

Mini Chicken and Mushroom Pies

September 12, 2018 by Louise

I ditched buying store bought pies a long time ago – they just taste ughhh.  Once you’ve become accustomed to a good homemade pie (like these mini Chicken and Mushroom Pies), there is just no going back unfortunately. What do you say? Homemade food has a knack of setting that bar high! I often have to learn…

Easy Cheesy Lasagne

July 3, 2018 by Louise

Lasagne, kind of like a pizza dough, always used to scare me. Not to eat it, but to make it. The length of the process! I mean you have to make mince AND cheese sauce AND then layer it.  At least an hour and a half in the kitchen, right? So I avoided making it…

Lentil Cottage Pie

May 4, 2018 by Louise

In an effort to eat less meat and more vegetarian meals and of course to be a supporter of Meatless Mondays, I have been looking at how I can make lentils and chickpeas taste good. Let’s be honest, they can be rather bland, yes? BUT!! They are great protein additions and there is hope for…
