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.

P… P… P… Pick Up a Dairy-free Penguin Bar

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

Sweet Balsamic Bean Salad
This sweet and tangy bean salad knocks the socks off any shop bought (or horrors of horrors, tinned) offering.
Double Chocolate Chip Cookies
Yet more cookies from me! These very chocolaty cookies are quite substantial and would work perfectly with a cup of oat milk to wash them down… Double Chocolate Chip Cookies (dairy-free, egg-…
Radish Slaw
I bought the most lovely bunch of radishes the other day …and as they don’t keep very well I had to think up a way of using them as quickly as possible.
Roasted Green Bean Salad
