Brilliant Banana Bread Muffins VEGAN & Gluten Free Well, it certainly seems like summer here in the UK with temperatures staying in the 20’s (68f+) all week BUT that doesn’t mean we haven’t had rain! Oh we’ve had two thunderstorms with sheet lightning AND a hail storm with hail the size of chickpeas! Oh yes! It was noisy! Real noisy!…
Back to Basics: Buddha Bowl Buddha Bowl? What’s that!? Well, I just realised that it’s been a long time since I posted anything new in Back to Basics!

Creamy Chunky Coleslaw… Vegan! Ooo it was sunny here today!

Melt in the mouth…vegan cookies Oh yes! 😀 Melt in the mouth and vegan don’t usually go together but these… these are just that! They have a slight crisp shell which breaks through to a soft melty buttery interior. It’s insane… they are so easy to make with only FOUR basic ingredients! 😀 Add your favourite extras such as chocolate…
Happy St. Patricks Day with Pesto Courgetti This week has been better! Not that I’ve got much done though!

Vegan Taco Jackfruit Okay! I’m sorry! It’s Tuesday again! What an unbelievable week I’ve had! You can never tell what each day can bring and I was certainly most unprepared for what happened this week! and… then my laptop wouldn’t turn on! 🙁 So, as I said last week – I will “try” to post again this week and then…
