A Class Above Potato Salad
Yet more salads! I’ve always had a fondness of potato salad that I can’t really explain – gloopy cold potatoes anyone? This version can be easily made either dairy and egg free or…
So it’s Easter Weekend…
Easter is a bit different for us, in a household where the children are dairy-free, egg-free and nut-free.
Chocolate Easter Biscuits
So, with the lack of actual Easter Eggs in this house I decided to make some chocolate biscuits in the shape of eggs.
Giraffe Salad
No, not made of Giraffes, just from the restaurant chain! We had an unusual Easter Sunday… A very early morning Easter egg hunt (luckily the Easter Bunny had visited) followed by a day out wi…
Birthday Cakes (always a challenge with no butter and no eggs)
I’ve just downloaded masses of photos from my phone and come across a few birthday cake photos.
Sainsbury’s, this time you did impress (ice lollies part II)
As I’ve mentioned before, Sainsbury’s is normally a complete nightmare to shop in if you are dairy, egg and nut-free, with a complete lack of (or even non existence of) choice in a lot …
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.
Home-made Egg-free Pasta
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.
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.
Black Pepper Tofu
I know tofu can be a challenging ingredient to many people, but I defy anyone not to be totally converted to its delights after eating this fabulous dish.
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
So I have a half pack of silken tofu left over from the chocolate cheesecake recipe – what to do with it? I could have made brownies with silken tofu, but I’m all out of ‘safeR…
Zingy Lemon Butter(less)cream
The perfect topping for St Clement’s cupcakes, or possibly gingerbread – hmm, going to have to try that combo! Zingy Lemon Buttercream (dairy-free, egg-free, nut-free, soya-free, sesame…
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…
Old Town Oaties
This is my long-time fall back chunky chocolate chip cookie, enriched with oats and soft brown sugar.
