I said the other week, people who put potatoes in the microwave don’t deserve to have a potato in the first place. I still stand by that (even if I am sitting down at the mo) but some sadist scheduled my university timetable to not end on a Tuesday untilContinue Reading
I’m glad I didn’t make these yesterday on Vegan Monday, as there’s no way I would have been able to resist them until today. Quick, easy and I didn’t even need to leave the house to buy any ingredients. Oh, they’re flipping delicious, too. Chilli cheese flapjacks (makes 9 slices)Continue Reading
Okay, I slipped up with the lip balm thing again. And the hot chocolate thing. I am officially rubbish at Vegan Monday. Still, breakfast (fruit), lunch (leek and potato soup) and dinner (leftover aubergine and lentil curry from last week) were all vegan. As were the snacks – I hadContinue Reading
Ssh, don’t tell anyone, but when my delivery of raw cacao arrived in the post this morning, I got excited and skived off to the supermarket to get the rest of the ingredients I needed to make this raw vegan fudge my friend Vivianne had told me about on Facebook.Continue Reading
Hooray, it appears I made it successfully through a Vegan Monday for a change. No lip balm or hot chocolate slip-ups this time. I had fruit for breakfast, mulligatawny soup for lunch and a vegan chocolate peanut butter bar as a snack along with my vegan hot chocolate. And alsoContinue Reading
I’m still experimenting with the peanut butter bars. It’s so easy to just add whatever you’ve got available and you can’t go wrong really. Today, I had a flash of inspiration and added 50g Seeds of Love and some Choc Shot. Delicious. I’m not sure where you can buy SeedsContinue Reading
As the title says, I might as well call Vegan Monday, Junk Food Monday. Or move Vegan Monday to another day – a day when I can actually be bothered to cook something, rather than just see what there is in the freezer to heat up and serve with chipsContinue Reading
Like Sooty without Sweep, and Sue without Mel, Orgran’s gluten free spaghetti in tomato sauce was okay, but there was something missing. I’m not sure what the something was (and it wasn’t a gormless squeaky thing either and yes, I know that’s not a nice way to describe Mel Giedroyc),Continue Reading
I forgot to mention these on yesterday’s Vegan Monday post. I’d been wondering what to have as a snack if I wanted one, as I’d run out of all the vegan sweets I’d bought at VegFest and hadn’t made any peanut butter bars. Then I remembered I’d been sent aContinue Reading
After my confession on Sunday about using non-vegan stock for my soup, I thought surely I’ve got it sussed now – there can’t be any more hidden dangers can there? Then, while I was applying lip balm for what was probably the seventeenth time on Monday, it occurred to meContinue Reading
