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.
Zingy Homemade Lemonade

P… P… P… Pick Up a Dairy-free Penguin Bar
In writing this blog I wanted to challenge myself to be able to create any foodstuff (within reason!) that I like (or liked as a child), or my girls would like to try, and make it dairy/egg/nut-fre…
Brown Sugar Blondies

Chocolate Mint Thins
We seem to have become reliant on ending a meal with a mint chocolate! Unfortunately, our usual Mint Chocolate Crisps from Sainsbury’s Free From range haven’t been available for a while…

This is my long-time fall back chunky chocolate chip cookie, enriched with oats and soft brown sugar.
Cucumber and Poppy Seed Salad

Toffee and Raisin Cookies
I think I’ve been making too many chocolate biscuits recently – although they’re the family favourite – so today I made some Toffee and Raisin Cookies, just for a change.
Lucky 7 Bean Chilli
The fridge is bare and I haven’t done a big shop for a while – too much time blogging, I think! So tonight calls for a real store cupboard supper, and what could be better than a beany …
At Last An Egg-Free Frangipane
This is the recipe for the frangipane layer used in the Knockout Pear and Almond Pastries that I posted yesterday.
Magic Chocolate Sauce
Do you remember a chocolate sauce back in the 80s that magically turned into a hard shell on contact with cold ice cream – was it called ‘Ice magic’? Anyway, this rich and sumptuo…
Knockout Pear and Almond pastries (aka Jalousie aux Poires)
It worked! I am so, so pleased! :-) My second foray into making French patisserie (as taught by the wonderful Claire Clark when she was a teacher at Le Cordon Bleu) but egg and dairy-free, has turn…
