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…
Mushroom Stroganoff. DEGF Mushrooms! Yum! For a vegetarian or a vegan, mushrooms are one of those ‘meatier’ foods which you can actually sink your teeth into and chew!

I ‘was’ going to do something different… but then thought ‘actually, I think I’ll do a chocolate dessert’ as it does compliment the rest of my meal – Beetbean Pate and Chickpea Patties very nicely (and the after dinner chocolates…
Breakfast Blueberry Style (Dairy. Egg. Gluten. Free.) 🙂 I know you all know how to make porridge (It generally says how on to the packet)! but I thought I would have a little experiment just to see if I could come up with a foolproof – ‘need to make this again’ recipe! 🙂 If it’s cold outside and you need…
Valentines <3 or Anytime Chickpea patties (DEGF) Happy Monday!

DEGF Healthy Chocolate Brownies (very low sugar)! There are SO many things I am excited about today I don’t know where to start! The beginning.. oh yes.. always a good place to start!
