Refreshing Chickpea & Quinoa Salad
Summer, summer, summer… The time when you get invited to endless picnics and BBQ’s and wonder what vegan low-FODMAP food you’ll be able to eat!? For the record, I love summer. Nothing quite makes you feel alive like the feeling of sun on your skin, the fresh summer smells, some Bob Marley in the background…
Perfect Potatoes
After non-stop roasting, and more potatoes than I care to eat, I feel that it’s safe to say these really are the ‘Perfect Potatoes’. By perfect I mean light, warm and fluffy on the inside, while crisp and golden on the outside. Heaven! Roast potatoes – usually a side, rarely a main – are surprisingly…
Mama’s Ginger Carrots
My second delicious, super easy, vegan, low-FODMAP, Christmas side dish is ginger carrots. I’ve always loved the ginger-carrot combo, especially at Christmas because my mum always makes these as Christmas side. If your making them for guests and want them to look more impressive, you can always use baby carrots. They also look great with…
Rosemary Roasted Parsnips
This week I’m posting three delicious, simple, vegan and low-fodmap classic Christmas sides. Wow, that was a mouthful! First off, because they’re one of my favourite root vegetables… Roasted Parsnips. Some parsnip trivia for you: They are native to Eurasia and closely related to carrots, okay you probably knew that already. But did you know they…
Sweet Miso Glazed Aubergine
This soft-melting aubergine with sticky, sweet and salty miso-glaze makes for a mouthwateringly rich meal that’s easy to make (and eat!) Any aubergine lovers will know that they act like a sponge and soak up oil so, to avoid them becoming too heavy, it’s important to brush on the oil which gives you control over…
Pumpkin Ratatouille
The first of my pumpkin recipes, Ratatouille. This is healthy, delicious and super easy. It’s filling and hearty too, making it a great choice for an autumn meal. The secret ingredient, fresh rosemary… I can never get enough of it. I love everything about it: the way it looks, the fact it smells like heaven and tastes delicious….
Patatas a lo Pobre
My friend Robin’s mother has an allotment so we get very lucky with delicious super organic vegetables. I can’t describe what a treat it is! Last time Robin came over his goodie bag included these delicious potatoes. So I decided to make this variant on Patatas Pobre, because I wanted to make a dish where…
Mama’s Hummus
It’s as simple as 1, 2, 3… It takes minutes, only uses 6 ingredients and tastes amazing! Every time my mum makes this it’s a huge hit. It’s creamy, fresh and full of flavour making it the perfect accompaniment for some pre-dinner tapas. Remember 42g of chickpeas is a safe low FODMAP serving (84g contains…
