Moroccan Inspired Millet… think couscous and tagines 🙂 Morocco if you have ever visited, is a place full of intrigue, of sights, sounds, smells and colour 🙂 . What seems like an eternity ago, I travelled fairly extensively in Morocco from Sidi Ifni in the South, through the Atlas Mountains, to the now touristy areas of Casablanca, Marrakesh, Rabat, Meknes…
Spicy Vegetable Casserole aka Stewp! How quickly this week has gone! Oh well, I guess it’s only another five weeks to the next school holiday! 🙂 Hopefully next week I’ll get the chance to try out some delicious new recipes that I’ve been planning in my head for too long! For now though here’s a lovely creation named “Stewp” thanks to…
Chinese New Year: Lettuce Wraps (Dairy. Egg. Gluten. Free.) It’s the start of the Chinese New Year celebrations. I thought it was the year of the Goat but it appears that “Yang” translates as Goat, Sheep or Ram so 2015 can be any of those years! 🙂 If you don’t know the story of how the Chinese New Years were…
Roasted Red Pepper Soup. Dairy. Egg. Gluten. Free. Roasted red peppers are one of those delightful foods which taste so indulgent but are so healthy for you being low in fat, packed with vitamins such as C, A, and E and also containing folate and magnesium. 🙂 This recipe (if you can resist eating the peppers straight from the pan) is quick and…
Valentines <3 or Anytime Chickpea patties (DEGF) Happy Monday! One more week of school before a week off for half-term break and what better way to start the holidays than a Valentines treat! <3 Hopefully you have reason to enjoy and embrace Valentines Day with a loved one, but if you are single there’s no reason not to treat yourself!…

Valentines day will soon be here (for those of us it interests!) and I am working on some great recipes to tantalize those taste buds and get you in the mood for love! <3 Yesterday I found myself at a friends house at dinner time…a meat loving, dairy eating friend but…
Tofu Sesame I think I must get myself a notebook just for recipes! I have in front of me six loose pieces of paper… none of which (I have just realised) have todays recipe on it! Oops! You could have the coconut ball recipe or variations of chocolate mud cake, chick peas, chilli, salad or sesame bites! Tofu! Over the weekend…
Chilli bean lunch pot (DEGF)… Dairy. Egg. Gluten. Free. With the weather in the UK getting colder by the day I decided that some warming food was needed! This can be prepared in advance and quickly heated up for a filling and nutritious lunch. Alternatively cook it for dinner and serve with a jacket potato and a salad (note to…
Chick Pea Curry in a Hurry This is one of my favourite meals at the minute. I love chick peas. I eat lots of chick peas! They are tasty, easy to prepare and can be used in all sorts of dishes. Chick peas also of course contain lots of protein… in fact chick peas are almost a fifth protein! A massive…
Sizzling Marinated Tofu Here it is… the sizzling tofu recipe complete with photos taken with a real camera (sorry smartphone)! I had the tofu waiting for something exciting to happen and this is most definitely it! A gorgeous marinade inspired by sweet chilli sauce but with more of a kick :-). Marinate for as long as you can resist eating it…
