…Freestyle Peanut Tofu Bowls
Plum & Lime Cake
This is a lovely little crowd-pleasin’ cake, quick & simple to whip up. The batter is spiked with tangy lime zest, while the topping is juicy tart plums – using tinned plums means you can enjoy this treat year-round. No fresh limes? Try lemon! Equally zestily delicious!
…Three Ingredient Cookies
Cute, quick, not too sweet, simple, delicious! And yes, only three ingredients to make the actual biscuits. Got ground almonds? How about maple syrup? And nut butter of your choice? Then you’re good to go!
…Capsicum Bruschetta
My cousin was enthusing about a capsicum bruschetta she’d made, involving sultanas and anchovies. I was intrigued by the sweet alongside the salty, so I experimented with capers – and this is the finger lickin’ result. Slick, oily, and savoury, yet also sweet and juicy – with only a handful of ingredients, each element gets a chance to shine.
…Sticky Citrus Tofu
Zesty, sticky, not too sweet! This is a delicious glazed tofu recipe where you choose which citrus fruit takes the starring role. I’ve tried variations with fresh lime, orange and lemon – all three are winners, so you can have seasonal citrusy goodness.
…Mint Choc Chip Smoothie
This mint choc chip smoothie is a great way to get green goodness in your belly, and if your garden is anything like mine, it’s bursting with fresh mint and leafy greens. Cool sweetness comes from frozen banana, alongside a little coconut milk for that smooth, filling creaminess. I still get a kick out of seeing the kids drink these smoothies, knowing how many fresh green goodies they’re getting.
…Moroccan Bean Stew
Thick, hearty & comforting, this flavourful one-pot-wonder will warm the cockles of your heart. Packed with plant-protein, it’s lovingly seasoned with the warming spice of cinnamon, smoked paprika, cumin & turmeric. Serve with hot toast or fresh bread, and dunk to your heart’s content.
…Choose-Your-Grain Salad with Orange & Coriander
This salad is big & hearty – it can be a meal on its own, or served as a satisfying side. It’s also remarkably versatile so you can personalize it to what you have on hand & what flavours you prefer. I’ve broken the recipe down into three simple parts – the basic zesty salad, where you choose your own grain (I’ve tried variations of millet, brown rice, quinoa), then add veges of your choice, either raw or cooked, and pull it all together with a citrusy dressing.
…Egg-Free Corn Fritters
These are versatile little corn fritters, which get tarted up with vegetables of your choice. Once you’ve made the basic batter, you can load in all the optional goodness, like cauliflower, broccoli, spinach, spring onion, sprouted lentils…
…Easy Pulled Jackfruit
Mexi-inspired savoury goodness, ready to stuff into a tortilla, spread over corn chips for nachos, toss with roast potatoes, tip into a taco…so versatile! This recipe uses tinned jackfruit, combined with an easy sauce, then simmered in one pan until deliciously fragrant and soft.
