I’ve got a confession to make. None of the soup I’ve had on the two days I’ve had soup for lunch for Vegan Monday over the last four weeks has been vegan. This means I have only successfully completed one out of four Vegan Mondays (and that was only becauseContinue Reading
A friend on Facebook mentioned he’d had a spinach and cheese muffin. I’d never heard of a spinach and cheese muffin but I love spinach and I love cheese and I especially love them together so I trawled the internet for a recipe. I found this one at Uma’s KitchenContinue Reading
Oh dear. I had planned to make goulash with dumplings, even making my own dumplings this time as Aunt Bessie’s ones – although tasty – aren’t vegan. But I spent so long playing Candy Crush, it got late and I couldn’t be bothered to start cooking something ‘proper’, so IContinue Reading
Someone on Twitter last night tweeted she’d seen an advert for frozen baked potatoes. ‘WTF’, she said, ‘get a potato and put it in the oven/microwave’. Personally, I think anyone who puts a raw potato in the microwave to bake doesn’t deserve to have a potato in the first placeContinue Reading
Today’s Vegan Monday went a lot better than last week’s did. This time, I’d been to Tesco at the weekend, so I was prepared. No more ‘accidentally’ drinking non-vegan hot chocolate; Tesco had in some Sweet Freedom Choc Shot Liquid Chocolate that I’d lusted over at VegFest the other weekContinue Reading

When you’ve got an out of date packet of Quorn pieces in the fridge and a packet of green beans that need using up, there’s only one thing for it. Quorn and green bean curry. Quorn and green bean curry (serves 4) 1 350g pack Quorn pieces 100g green beans,Continue Reading
Uh oh, it was only the second ever Vegan Monday and I failed. Slightly, failed, anyway. Okay, there’s no slightly about it – either I went a whole day only eating and drinking stuff that was vegan or I didn’t, and I didn’t. I have to confess I had aContinue Reading
The Meat Eater’s away and I pondered what to have for dinner. I had planned to have a tortilla pizza but it rained all afternoon and I didn’t fancy cycling in the rain to the farm shop to buy mushrooms. That meant the toppings on my tortilla pizza would consistContinue Reading
