Vegan Leek, Bacon & Potato Quiche
This is the latest installment in my mung bean adventure series. It started off with me making the base mixture, which can be use to make a scramble or an omelette. Then I created this meaty vegan steak fajita omelette, and finally these vegan breakfast egg bites. Now I’m sharing how I make this vegan… Continue reading Vegan Leek, Bacon & Potato Quiche
Vegan Eggs with Mung Beans
Let me preface this by first saying that I’ve always loved eggs. I was that vegetarian who said they’d not be able to be vegan because they’d miss eggs. Since I became vegan I’ve had some great successes with recreating scrambled eggs out of ackee, using egg replacers, and of course, tofu. But sadly I’ve… Continue reading Vegan Eggs with Mung Beans

Vegan Ham & Cheese Twists
These moreish pastry twists are a combination of dairy-free cheese, meat-free smoked ham, and crumbly shortcrust pastry. They’re a really tasty snack and are lovely eaten hot or cold.

Broccoli & Cauliflower Cheese Soup
This comforting, cosy soup is a delicious combination of broccoli, cauliflower and vegan smoked cheese. The cheesy element comes from smoked tofu, nutritional yeast and a few other seasonings. Meaning this recipe doesn’t call for any vegan cheese or cashews. I realise vegan cheese isn’t for everyone, and cashews can be expensive, so I’ve been… Continue reading Broccoli & Cauliflower Cheese Soup
Vegan Camembert Stuffed Pumpkin

I used plant-based camembert by Honestly Tasty, it’s the closest thing to dairy camembert that I’ve tried since I transitioned to veganism. They also have a lovely brie that… Continue reading Vegan Camembert Stuffed Pumpkin

You can eat these by themselves, or pair them with a bowl of soup for… Continue reading Three Vegan Toasties
