• Sweet potato and Spinach Curry

  

  Curry is a great dish as you can pretty much put anything you like in there and have a spicy, rich meal. I made this curry for the sake of Sunday dinner but when I posted the picture on Instagram someone asked for the recipe. So I guess the recipe must be done which means…

• Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

  

  Cookies, Biscuits, or whatever other word you want to use. Sometimes you just need a cookie but getting them with no dairy, egg or oil would be a nightmare. Cookies are easy to make which is luck because I lost my oatmeal cookie recipe and had to wing it. No worries, I have now done…

• Cornbread

• Pasta Sauce

  

  Who doesn’t love spaghetti covered in tomato-y goodness? I know I do. In fact this was the meal my daughter specifically asked me to make this week so it must be good. I have been known to buy sauces but they are never quite right and I always need to buy several jars to feed…

• Sourdough Casserole (vegan)

Sourdough Casserole 800g sourdough starter 1 300g packet of silken tofu  2 Tablespoons Nutritional yeast 2 teaspoons baking powder…

• What I Eat in a Day

  

  I am working on a few recipes but I will admit that I am a bit stuck at the moment. I have been watching these what I eat in a day videos so I thought I could do a blog version of it. You will notice I tend to be rather heavy in the fruit.…

• Applesauce

  

  Do you have any idea how easy it is to make applesauce? It is so simple that the first time I made it was in Kindergarten when I was 5 years old. Of course we made it as a class project and didn’t worry about nutrition back then. I distinctly remember sugar being a big…

• Crispy Spicy Tofu with Ramen Style Soup

  

  Please excuse the lack of pretty pictures as I was not planning to do this recipe for a post but it was so good that I have to share. The picture below does not do this dish justice at all. I had no attempted anything like this before so searched for inspiration this morning. In…
