Rhubarb & Ginger ice-cream VEGAN! Is it still hot and sunny where you are? This is so refreshing, so tantalisingly tangy, so colourful, that it’s sure to transport you into the midst of summer! Why rhubarb? Well, that allotment of mine just loves producing rhubarb! 🙂 We’ve had rhubarb crumble, rhubarb and forest fruits crumble, and rhubarb and apple crumble so it…
Back to Basics: Ratatouille Oh I forgot how delicious something so simple can be! 😀 and I’ve tried to make this as simple as possible with no faffing, fancy ingredients or complicated instructions! Okay, so this isn’t the ‘proper’ way to make ratatouille… but then when did I make anything that was! 😛 I used my crumble recipe last night…
Sexy Summer Salad See… something named after you at last! 😛 😀 Ahhh… Summer! 😀 The longest day of the year has been and gone which means nights are drawing in already! WHAT… noooo!!! Well, the sun may have hidden behind the clouds today this week but that doesn’t mean we can’t have salad! Especially salad as good as this…
Anyone for Burgers? Vegan & Free-From Firstly, please excuse the photos!

These…
What’s quicker than take-out? Cheeky Chickpeas! Do you love the lighter brighter evenings? Do you find yourself having dinner later and later? Well, last night hubby decided he wanted very hot curry (to get rid of a headache)! Realising that it was already 6.30pm (we have dinner at 6pm on a school night) he rang his favourite take-away. Did I…
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! The weather has suddenly changed and the garden is springing into life! 😀 My spinach and chard are starting to grow and the mixed leaves are poking through the soil. There’s some…
Creamy Chunky Coleslaw… Vegan! Ooo it was sunny here today! Up to 18 degrees centigrade! 🙂 Bearing in mind that last night we were threatened with a frost, the temperature today was none too shabby! 🙂 So, sunny weather brings lighter food, salads and ice cream! I’m not sure how long this weather will stay but this chunky coleslaw is…
