Inspiring friendly recipes and thoughts
Fresh Pea Hummus
This idea is inspired by a sandwich I had in Pret a Manger the other day (I do have a fondness for their sandwiches) which featured pea hummus and feta and was really fresh, summery and different.
Vegan Marshmallows!
As a vegetarian (non-gelatine eating) it’s been a very, very long time since I’ve eaten a marshmallow.
Ginger Snaps
Ginger snaps are lovely biscuits, and while McVitie’s Ginger Nuts are a great dairy, egg and nut free standby, sometimes it’s nicer to have homemade.
Crown Biscuits Fit For The Queen
Little S has a big school trip tomorrow – off to London to watch changing of the guard, see Buckingham Palace and picnic in a Royal Park.
Banoffee Pudding Pots
I used to make these a lot with dairy yogurt (an old recipe from Good Food magazine, although not quite the same) and thought that maybe it could persuade Big S that bananas are worth eating.
Ice Lollies (UK brands and why Tesco come out on top again)
As I mentioned, summer has suddenly arrived in the UK – at last, some might say! So thoughts turn to ice lollies, especially if you’re a child and especially if most ice creams are out …

I always wanted to make some home-made pasta – I even gave D a pasta machine a few years ago as a birthday present, but somehow it never saw the light of day until today.

Mini Doughnuts
Did you know that it’s National Doughnut Week in the UK? Neither did I until the other day – I have to say it’s a rather tenuous reason for a National Week! Anyway, I thought I…
Pink Pickled Onions
This is a fabulous recipe – make a batch and keep in a covered container in the fridge and they can add a crunchy zing to many a dish.
Burger Buns
Here’s the recipe for the burger buns I used with the Butternut Squash and Mushroom Burgers.
Roasted Mushroom and Butternut Squash Burgers
It seems like it was a ‘Burger Tuesday’ in this house this week.
Patatas Bravas, my style
I do like tapas, but as a veggie you often have a limited choice, mainly with a potato or rice theme – and if you’re at a restaurant with meat eaters everyone wants to try your dishes b…
Carrot and Parsley Salad
The sunshine in the last couple of days has had my thought turning to salads, and this one is a particular favourite.
