I’ve been making this taco mix for years and years. I love it. I love it in tacos and I love it as part of a taco bowl. What’s more is that it’s really easy and quick to make, which is how I like to roll these days.

15 Minute Vegan Chick’n Coconut Curry
I have a really good korma recipe that I have perfected over the years, based on how I remember it tasting when my mother used to make it for us as kids. But unfortunately mine has quite an extensive list of ingredients and if I haven’t pre-prepped the korma paste for my freezer beforehand, then I don’t often get to enjoy it. However, this 10 minute curry is a saviour for when I want a curry in a hurry and combined with 2 minute microwave rice, you can have a good, nutritious vegan meal in less than 15 minutes.

Basic Vegan Custard
I don’t know if this is only a British thing, but as a Brit I can say that we do love our custard here. It was a main condiment, for me, as a child and I would slather it over all of my Nannas’, homemade pies and tarts.
After I went vegan, I started to crave apple crumble and custard all the time and I quickly started to feel jealously towards my younger-self, who would hungrily pour it over everything. Continue reading “Basic Vegan Custard”
Kodiak Cakes: Whole Wheat, Oat & Honey Blueberry Muffins.
I still have so many Kodiak Cakes products left after being sent a ton of stuff by Cardiff Sports Nutrition a few months back. But, I’m slowly working my way through it all. This whole wheat, oat and honey flapjack and waffle mix however, wasn’t my favourite when it came to pancakes: the pancakes always turned out so sticky and stodgy and I tried numerous ways of eating and cooking them, but the outcome was always the same – sticky and stodgy.

Kodiak Cakes: Double Chocolate Chunk Brownies.
It’s Friday and often when the weekend is upon us, all diets go out the window; alcohol and junk food enter and next thing you know you’re wallowing in a dark corner, rocking and holding yourself after realising you have just eaten everything in sight. Just me? I’m only joking.

Cauliflower, Horseradish & Parsnip Mash with Baked Trout
I love experimenting in the kitchen, more with savoury than I do sweet. But, I enjoy eating both equally. Today I decided to put my chefs hat on and create something delicious. For those of you who read this blog often – if any – then you would remember a similar dish I created a couple of months ago with salmon; this dish is pretty similar, but I thought a lot more tastier.

Chilli Quorn Carne
Would you believe that I have never had Chilli Con Carne before? I think it was always the beans that put me off eating it, there’s something about beans that just freaks me out. But over the years I’ve started trying different varieties and I’m always surprised at how much I enjoy them.
I won’t lie, I was nervous about trying this Chilli Quorn Carne and at first I did skirt around the kidney beans as if I would die if I ate one, but when I did, not only did I survive, I kinda enjoyed them. Chilli Quorn Carne is also perfect comfort food and I certainly felt comforted when I dug into this with a nice portion of sticky rice.
Spiced Butternut Squash & Lentil Soup.
The weather hasn’t been the best here in Wales lately and the only thing I’ve wanted to do is cwtch up in bed, with a hot bowl of soup and crusty bread to dip. That’s usually an image you imagine with winter or autumn, but not with the Great British climate, we get to do this all year around or at least that’s how it feels.
