Let me start this blog post by saying this recipe is bad for your health. There’s butter on butter action and LOTS of sugar. But that’s enough said about that, because this shortbread is insanely good! It’s buttery and short (as a shortbread should be!), with just a hint of peanut butter running through the …

Vegan Roast Potatoes
Alright, alright. This one here might seem super basic, but man is it important to serve up a good, crispy roastie. Especially at Christmastime! Now, growing up, I always learned the key ingredient to a crispy roast potato was duck fat. After becoming vegan, it obviously became a big “no thank you” from me. But …
Vegan Pumpkin Coconut Curry
As I write this, the rain is bucketing down outside and the wind is strong enough to blow me away to the Land of Oz. So, it’s no surprise that a dish like this vibrant and warming curry is just what the doctor ordered today. It’s the kind of dish I can’t wait to break …
Vegan Mince Pies
Let the Christmas baking begin! It’s my absolute favourite time of year, so please excuse me if I get a little overexcited with the Christmas bakes this season. Growing up, the first mince pies hitting the oven always signalled the start of the festive season in our house, so it only feels right my first …
Vegan Bagel French Toast
This recipe came about when I really fancied some french toast but didn’t have any bread on hand. Spotting the trusty bagels tucked away in my cupboard, I though “a-ha! They’ll do!”. Little did I know they’d be an absolute bloomin’ treat! Bagel french toast is THE BEST. It has jumped right to the front …
Vegan Buffalo Chickpea Pizza
This recipe is so dang easy… even when making the pizza dough from scratch! Hallelujah! I’m a huge fan of buffalo sauce – the heat, the flavour – it puts a big ol’ smile on my face. Before I turned vegan, if I ever spotted buffalo chicken on a menu, it was a no-brainer. I …
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 …
