Vegan Pick ‘n’ Mix from The Vegan Candy Co & Giveaway

Veganuary‘s over and maybe you took part and maybe you didn’t. Maybe you thought, ‘Pah, I ain’t jumping on no bandwagon.

2 More Cookbooks On My Shelf
I’ve just realised I’ve put ‘cookbooks’ in the title when, actually, only one is a cookbook (clue: it’s not the one that says ‘skincare’).

Back in my alcohol-free beer review last April, I said I thought spinach would be better for a broken foot than alcohol (I know, I obviously have untapped potential as a doctor and should have gone to medical school) and so I was currently living an alcohol-free life. Well, guess what?Continue Reading
Vegan Fish Finger Pie with Parsley Sauce
I ate my first ploughman’s lunch last year. I’d seen other people with them on numerous occasions and they looked interesting – all that picky stuff to eat looked right up my street. Whenever I saw it on a menu though I always swerved it for a hot meal insteadContinue Reading
Easy Vegan Sweet Mustard Tofu Burgers
This tofu burger isn’t like the others.
