I’ve been feeling a bit under the weather this week with absolutely no energy and getting out of breath just walking up a few stairs. With Juneathon approaching, this just won’t do, so today I made a batch of spicy soup – if this doesn’t sort me out, nothing will.Continue Reading
I’ve got an amazing prize to give away to one lucky reader – a hamper bursting with all the Amy’s Kitchen gluten-free goodies you can see in the photo above, namely: cheese pizza Thai red curry cheddar, rice and bean burrito vegetable lasagne chunky tomato soup lentil and vegetable soupContinue Reading
I thought this soup might be a bit adventurous for lunchtime – my lunches are usually plain and simple (if you don’t take into account the pizza flavoured tofu in pitta bread I had yesterday), but I needn’t have worried; this soup was lovely. It’s silky smooth, with a subtleContinue Reading
This is the nicest soup I’ve made for ages and more than makes up for the disastrous soup I made last week. Of course, it could be because it’s got chilli in it; chilli improves everything (except avocado. Nothing could improve that. Bleurgh). The recipe is taken from the BBCContinue Reading
Since recently discovering cheese-topped baps in Tesco, they’d become my lunch, filled with Violife vegan cheese slices, vegan mayo and salad (yes, I know there’s not really much point putting vegan cheese and vegan mayo into dairy cheese-topped baps but I’ve still got loads of Violife cheese slices to useContinue Reading

Before I moved to Kent and still worked full-time in Central London, despite having a sedentary job, I made sure I still had a healthy daily dose of exercise. I walked from Liverpool Street station to Chancery Lane (about 1.5 miles) and back again and either went to the gymContinue Reading
Just because it’s 27C outside, that doesn’t mean I can’t have soup for lunch does it? Nope, thought not. I’d recently bought The Bean Book by Rose Elliot (it’s been in my wishlist for ages after reading all the great reviews on amazon) and made myself some butter bean andContinue Reading
