Grilled Asparagus Quinoa Risotto
Now, I hope you’re not turning your nose up at quinoa. It holds a stigma of being one of those boring, health foods, which can be true if you’re cooking it well. However, this quinoa risotto is far from boring. The crunchy quinoa is combined with grilled garlicy asparagus and creamy dill butter, melts heavenly […]
Tofu & Coconut Bacon Caesar Sub
It’s been a while since the last Herbivores sandwich/burger recipe, so this tofu and coconut bacon caesar sub is way overdue. With this recipe I’ve tried to balance out the perfect filling to bread ratio, because who wants to be chewing on a dry baguette with hardly any filling!? This recipe has brought together the […]
Lemon & Elderflower Tartlet Cakes
Lemon and Elderflower. These cakes feel so British it hurts. I can just imagine sitting down for an afternoon tea and these luscious tartlet cakes been served on one of the cake tiers along with some scones. Just writing about afternoon tea is making me hungry, there’s nothing better than a whole selection of cakes I […]
“Cheesy” Potato Croquettes
I’m not sure why deep fried, crispy potatoes are so appetising, but they truly are. Potatoes are the king of savoury. They’re vegan, versatile and can be made into glorious foods like these potato tots. I can’t decide whether my cheesy potato croquettes are a fancy tapas dish or more like a side you’d feed […]
Hazelnut Brookies (GF)
Holey moley. Get these bad boys into my mouth. Love a soft cookie? Can’t resist the chocolate? Partial to a nutty flavour? These are probably the ones for you. Cookies are my joy in life.

“Coconut Ice” Truffles | Sugar-free
Homemade gifts are my favourite. When you’re a bit strapped for cash, it’s the best way to create a beautiful gift that is unique to them. Time is worth more than money nowadays anyway. Personally, I appreciate homemade gifts that bit more, because of the lovely thought that has gone into them. These coconut-y truffles are for Mumma this Mother’s Day, […]
Thai Sweet Potato Soup
Thai food is my absolute favourite! Since visiting Thailand, I’ve been even more obsessed with coconut curries and fragrant spices. Only problem for me is the massive spice issue… Thais love spice, a lot of spice. However, it doesn’t take many chillies to blow mine and Dillon’s tongue off! Therefore making your own food is the best, since you […]
How to: Raw Chia Jam
Chia seeds are one of the strangest ingredients in my vast pantry. If you haven’t used them before, they can be added to any form of liquid to create a gelatinous texture, spawning the chia egg, chia jam, chia pudding, the list goes on. Today we’ve used them for jam! Traditional jam is jam packed with sugar and will […]
