Why do dips just need to be a snack? When’s something is that good, I like to try and find ways to turn them into something else without sabotaging the traditional flavours intended.  This traditionally Middle-Eastern dip, Baba Ganoush is just tha.  I’ve been able […]

I have to say that my last few soups have probably been some of the best I’ve tried. The carrot and chickpea was a treat but this one also […]

I was debating whether to post this recipe or not, as the photo itself is not the best.  What I’ve noticed is that I haven’t been able to take a good photo of noodles ever.  No matter what I do they never turn out!  However, it doesn’t mean that it lacks in the flavour!

The following recipe uses these in a great pasta dish with fetta, olives and parsley. It’s a nice […]

When trying to come up with something for my dad’s party for myself to eat. I looked at some various vegan sites for ideas. I did look at the Vegan Ribs by Susan V as suggested by reader Jamie, however Julie Hasson’s sausages took my eye at the same time and I came […]
