Tofu And Cavolo Nero Sambal

Veganuary is proving sublimely delicious so far, and I have yet another treat for you. There are several plant-based recipes featuring tofu on my blog, but this was one of the best. The sambal oelek was an ingredient I had not used before, but it is packed with piquant flavours and produced a deep red …

To Change The Mood A Little I’ve Been Posing Down The Pub

I think by now we are all agreed that this tour of various music genres that Jim is taking us on in his Song Lyric Sunday posts is causing us a little confusion at times. I am finding that with some genres there is a wide variety of songs and bands tagged with more than …

A New Feature

I am enjoying preparing posts featuring the mostly vegetarian and vegan dishes our household and guests have been enjoying. I also very much enjoy participating in Song Lyric Sunday each week, which brings some music to my site. But I have been pondering whether I was going to run out of steam with regards to …

Vegetable Muffins

Vegan baking can be quite an adventure. But I found a simple recipe that I was convinced was going to be a winner. We enjoyed these Vegetable Muggins immensely. When they were fresh out of the oven, we had a couple each with a crisp green salad for lunch. The remainders we enjoyed for breakfast …

Your Favourite Song Was Playing From The Far Side Of The Gym

This week's theme for Song-Lyric-Sunday is Country music - a genre I know a little more about. I lived in the US for a short time in my twenties (post grad placement) and was able to enjoy a lot of live country music performances. I was inclined to choose something very classic when I saw …

Old Mout Kiwi And Lime Fruit Cider

We have a very refreshing vegan cider for you today. In the name of variety, I tried out this Kiwi and Lime blend from Old Mout Cider and was very pleased I did. The flavour of kiwi was very distinctive and extremely enjoyable. I love lime, but in all honesty, I could barely detect any …

Salted Caramel Chocolate Crunch Tart

During the past couple of years, Robert and I have transformed the way we eat. Meat and fish rarely grace our kitchen nowadays. We eat an almost entirely vegetarian diet, and we love vegan plant-based options. Why have we made this choice? Initially, it was because we were so concerned about climate change and the …

Some Kinda Rash And Reckless Scene

I love that Jim is taking us through so many genres for Song Lyric Sunday, but I confess that I am rather daunted by some of them. Where to begin? I think my tastes have changed drastically over the years, and perhaps in my younger years I may have been able to enjoy metal rock …

Lipton Lemon Ice Tea

During the summer, I was out and about one day and I had been drinking plenty of water to remain hyrdated, but I suddenly went all floppy and fainty. It did not last long, but the inner medic in the friend I was with emerged, and she tried to force some ghastly tropical juice into …

Teriyaki Aubergine Rice Bowl

Nowadays, January means Veganuary. I have scheduled some of our favourite plant-based dishes for this month to show you how truly delicious a plant-based diet can be. This first one is one of my favourites. I found it in the October 2021 edition of the Waitrose magazine, and it turned out to be utterly delicious. …
