Stuffing and Sprouts
Thoughts are rapidly turning to Christmas lunch and how to make it as friendly as possible.
Cauliflower cocktail, aka veggie ‘prawn’ cocktail
There’s something about the festive season, that despite a ridiculous over abundance of food, there is compulsion to have a starter as well.
Strawberries & cream macarons – egg-free and nut-free.
Macarons, or to be precise Macarons Parisiens are those stunning little almond sandwiched delicacies which we all know because they are absolutely everywhere these days.
Muscovado Chocolate Chip Cookies
The perfect crispy, chewy dairy-free, egg-free chocolate chip cookie
‘Sunday roast’ salad with mint sauce vinaigrette
Sometime you just really fancy a flavour combination, and the other day I really hankered after a flavour I haven’t had for many years – roast potatoes with mint sauce.

Gorgeous Garden Burgers
Late May Bank Holiday Monday is the perfect day for barbecues and nothing fits a barbecue better than a delicious veggie burger.
Five Ingredient Vegetarian Caprese ‘meatballs’
Meatballs on spaghetti are a perennially popular dish – children always seem to wolf them down.
Egg-free Strawberry Soufflé
Egg-free soufflé you say? Impossible! How on earth could you make a soufflé without any eggs? It’s another one of those dishes that seems out of reach.
Coronation Rice Salad
I don’t know about you, but for us June and early July heralds peak picnic and barbecue season.
Luscious Lemon Mousse (egg, dairy and gelatine free)
Whilst you can’t beat chocolate mousse, there’s something so light and refreshing about lemon mousse that makes me crave this cloudy zesty dessert every now and then.
