Until recently, I’m ashamed to admit, I hadn’t really thought all that much about my use of plastic. I’d leave tote bags at home on shopping trips and happily pay for a plastic bag, telling myself that reusing the bag was “doing the right thing” How wrong I was! Like many people, I love watching …
Vegan Eats Guide: London
So, you’re planning a trip to London, eh? Well, vegan reader, you’re in luck! Because London just happens to be one of the most vegan friendly places in the world. Way back in my 20s, I was fortunate enough to spend a few years living here, and along the way sampled some seriously good food …
Homemade Vegan Baked Beans
Ah, baked beans. Is there really much better than simple beans on toast for dinner? Maybe. But beans and toast will always have a special place in my heart. Perfectly simple for all those nights where you promised yourself you’d make a slap up dinner and then all of sudden discovered it was 8 o’clock …
Vegan Corn Fritters
I’m really showing my Australian roots with this post because, in case you weren’t aware, Australians are notoriously keen on the humble fritter. But who can blame us, corn fritters are the best breakfast treat – don’t you agree? Well, I actually know a few people who despise corn – so they’d very likely disagree. But pfft! Who …
Vegan Creamy Alfredo with Brussel Sprouts & Mushrooms
Controversial, but I was never much of a creamy pasta fan. Even before I turned vegan. That was until just recently. I’ve since discovered the delights of a wonderful thick and creamy alfredo sauce… and I’ll never look back! I played around with a number of alfredo sauce recipes, but this is the one I …
Vegan Eats Guide: Copenhagen
To wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen Salty old queen of the sea – Wonderful, Wonderful Copenhagen by Danny Kaye Not going to lie, I’d never heard of that song before in my life. That was until I informed my mum I’d be visiting Copenhagen earlier this year. She responded with that song lyric, and in all honesty, …
Vegan Mac and Cheese (with crispy “bacon” bits)
Okay, so technically not “Mac” and Cheese…. more like “whatever-pasta-I can-find-lurking-in-my-cupboard” and cheese. But I doubt that would make for a very good search term. I sampled a lot of different mac and cheese recipes since going vegan (it was a trying time, but I survived) and I think in the process, I just might have found …
Wandering // Cuilcagh Boardwalk, Fermanagh
You’ll be forgiven for not knowing this about me just yet, dear reader, but… I am incredibly impressionable. Which is why, when I saw a video doing the rounds on social media of a boardwalk in county Fermanagh that would take me winding gracefully through the beautiful country landscape to the peak of Cuilcagh Mountain …
Sticky BBQ Tofu Sub
Hands up if you love yourself some delicious Asian BBQ flavours? You can’t see, but believe me when I say, both of my hands are up. I was absolutely obsessed with banh mi after visiting Vietnam, and this Sticky BBQ Tofu Sub right here, well, it fills that big ol’ banh mi shaped hole in …
Vegan Eats Guide: Belfast
What better way to kick-start this blog than with a little guide to my current home, Belfast! When I moved to Belfast a year ago it was a bit of a daunting task finding great places to eat vegan. But after some digging, I discovered some real gems. And boy, have the options only become …
