Recipe: Smoothies Containing Blueberries
I generally don’t plan what goes into my smoothies – as I mentioned in my Nutribullet review the other day, it doesn’t seem to matter what combination of fruit you add, it always turns out delicious. These two smoothies were no exception – I randomly chucked in whatever fruit I couldContinue Reading
Recipe: Smoky Marinated Tofu in Pitta Bread
I hadn’t had tofu for ages, so it was time to remedy that and raid the cupboard and fridge for condiments and drag the George Foreman out of the cupboard. The result was cripsy, smoky, spicy tofu that I stuffed in a Food Doctor seeded pitta bread (only £1 forContinue Reading
Review and Slideshow: Nutriblasts from my Nutribullet
After months of watching Nutribullet demos on the Ideal World TV shopping channel, I finally *ahem* bit the bullet and bought one. I’d put off buying one because I thought the Nutribullet was just an expensive blender – no matter how much they advertised it as a ‘nutrition extractor’ orContinue Reading
Corkers Crisps Giveaway – Winner Announced!
I’ve run out of Corkers Crisps so I wish I could win my own competition but alas, a) I didn’t enter it; and b) me winning my own competition might look a bit dodgy. So, I’m pleased to announce the winner of the Corkers Crisps giveaway of a box containingContinue Reading
Recipe: Vegan Banana Chocolate Tofu Mousse
Back in January, I made a vegan chocolate mousse. I kept meaning to make it again because a) it’s delicious; and b) seriously quick and easy to make. But, like most things, I didn’t get round to it. Until today, that is. After being inspired by Choclette’s banana andContinue Reading
Recipe: Vegan Leek and Potato Soup
Another thick and creamy soup using cashews and soya milk – this time, the always popular leek and potato. I don’t know what it is, but my leek and potato soup never comes out as nice as the ones in the tins, but it’s probably the cream and additives andContinue Reading
Recipe: Cheese, Onion and Jalapeno Pasty
The worst cheese and onion pasty I ever had came from Asda. I’ll never forget it. I can’t remember where I’d been that night but I’d been out and decided to pick something up from Asda to eat when I got home. I went to the pasty section, saw oneContinue Reading
Recipe: Vegetarian Scotch Eggs
I’d been coveting the Scotch eggs in the fridge. Obviously, I wasn’t going to eat them, because they contain meat but, I’d coveted them, nonetheless. But the good thing about being a vegetarian who likes to cook is that I don’t need to covet meaty things in the fridge –Continue Reading
Recipe: Vegan Cream of Mushroom Soup
Although my VonShef Soup Maker acts as a great blender, I’ve been lazy and have just chucked all my ingredients in, pressed the start button and buggered off to leave it to it. This method ends up with a smooth, creamy soup but slightly lacking in flavour with the onion andContinue Reading
