Rice and Beans: Louisiana Red Beans and Rice

The old classic ‘Red Beans and Rice’. This is a smoky, slow cooked and massively flavoursome recipe. It is the vegan equivalent of a slow cooked ragu that has been simmering for hours.

Baked Sweet Potato With Mexican Black Beans, Spinach, Guacamole And Vegan Sour Scream

I am obsessed with cashew sauces. This is probably the simplest one I make and for that reason, the one I make the most as I am one of those weirdos who used to put sour cream on pretty much anything. I much prefer my chipotle cashew sauce, which I do put on everything, but … More Cashew Sour Cream

The actual scramble is a straight up Mediterranean affair, including all the usuals – good quality olive oil, olives, red onions, cherry and sun dried tomatoes, fresh parsley and lemon juice. I then go a bit middle eastern and serve it with some homemade roasted red pepper hummus and … More Tofu Scramble: Mediterranean Scramble with Roasted Red Pepper Hummus and Pita
