Philly Cheezsteak Sandwiches

This vegan, high fiber, oil free take on the classic Philly Cheesesteak sandwich uses a surprising ingredient as the meaty filling- radish! I used winter radish from this year's garden harvest, but you can any any root veggie. I've even included a quick and easy cheez sauce to top the dish off!

Choc full of antioxidants, blueberries are a true super food, and delicious to boot! With the added health benefits of local raw honey, and the added sweetness and potassium boost of bananas, this dessert is a wonderfully healthy alternative to store bought frozen desserts (and much cheaper too!).

Roasted Tempeh and Veggies on a bed of Rutabaga/ Swede/ Neep Mash

Although I've served this as an alternative to my usual vegan haggis with neeps & tatties for Burns' Night this year, this dish is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's relatively quick and easy to cook, and doesn't leave much washing up! This filling recipe is the perfect comfort food!

What's more autumnal than pumpkins? There's something about these gorgeous gourds that brings together all the smells, colours, and warmth of the season. This dish is gluten free, vegan, low fat, and full of vitamins and antioxidants!

Marvelous Miso

Did you know there are different types of miso? Varieties include soy, chickpea, and barley. From mellow white to burgundy barrel aged, miso doesn't just make an incredible soup, it also gives an incredible earthiness to fruit based dishes such as crumbles, pies, and cake AND it keeps in the fridge!

Veggie Packed Pad Thai

Although this delicious dish is traditionally made with fish sauce, I've tried to reimagine it to make an oil free, vegan version. Feel free to add whatever veggies and greens you have in, you can even substitute the tofu for beans if preferred.

Cheesy Bean and Tofu Scramble

Cheesy Bean and Tofu Scramble

Jentacular- a word meaning pertaining to breakfast (I guess 'breakfasty' just didn't cut it?!) The brunch is pretty jentacular, if I do say so myself! A bowl of cheesy protein rich tofu and black beans, chunks of potato, crunchy veggies, creamy avocado, and chunks of sweet, juicy mango. Delish!

Terrific Tortilla Española

Terrific Tortilla Española

Did you know that the word 'tapas' means 'lids'? These dishes were devised to fit on small plates used to cover drinks. I love tapas, but trying to make some of these dishes both vegan and oil free requires a little creativity. How does one make an omelette with no eggs? With chickpeas, of course!
