Best Ever Vegan Soda Bread
I’ve tried so many vegan soda breads over the past couple of months, and while all have been amazing – this recipe here is my favourite.
Spicy Tomato Tofu/Tempeh
This is a super simple (literally the easiest) way to make some flavourful baked tofu/tempeh.
Mushroom, Aubergine & Butter Bean Curry
This is a delicious and really flavoursome way to get your beans and veggies in with the aromatic tones of a curry. The mushroom and aubergine mixed in the tamari adds such a delicious flavour, and honestly them on their own could be a great dish if you want to leave it there in the recipe!
Sticky Sesame Tofu/Tempeh
If you haven’t been converted to Tofu or Tempeh yet, you NEED to try this version. I could honestly eat this every single day and be very happy!
Healthy ‘Add what you want’ Oat Cookies
I’ve been making a variation of these cookies for weeks now – they’re super easy to make using only a few ingredients, and they’re really healthy so make the perfect snack.
Aubergine Spread/Dip
One of my absolute favourite ways to spice up a sandwich is with this aubergine spread. Think of hummus… it’s very much like aubergine meets hummus!
‘Eat Your Greens’ Pasta
This pasta dish is one of those recipes where you can really use up any green veggies you have lying around. When I made it here, I used broccoli, peas, and sugar snaps.
Raspberry Chia Jam
I genuinely make this every single time the jar is running low… I eat a spoon of it on my porridge every morning and it’s amazing.
Tofu and Chickpea Spicy Stew
This was one of the first meals I cooked for my boyfriend during Veganuary, and it stood out as a firm favourite. It’s such a delicious wholesome meal with the protein from the chickpeas and the tofu, and the spicy kick from the harissa really adds to it.
