I have been as sick as a dog. Well, I've had tonsillitis AGAIN! Usually in this situation I would make my feel good chicken soup but this is the first time I've been unwell since going vegan and I felt completely lost. Firstly, tonsillitis sucks balls, it's completely unnecessary pain and makes me feel like a child, … Continue reading MEAL: Roasted tomato and pepper soup

MEALS: Butternut squash risotto
At a work event last week, I requested special food (as always), I made my way over to the unsuspecting member of staff and started to explain that I couldn't eat anything on the buffet because unfortunately I'm wheat intolerant AND vegan "no problem, take a seat and the kitchen will whip something up … Continue reading MEALS: Butternut squash risotto
DRESSINGS: Lemon and tahini love in
At the weekend I blogged the second instalment of The Vegan Diaries, I mentioned that I had a new cook book; Salad Samurai.

I honestly want … Continue reading DRESSINGS: Lemon and tahini love in

People hate to cook for me, is that normal? Just because I don't eat wheat, like to avoid dairy and don't like eating things from packets... Ok, yes I'm the dinner guest from hell so when one of my favourite ladies offered to cook dinner for me last week I jumped at the chance. Meet … Continue reading MEALS: Veggie chilli the DanYELL way
MEALS: Cheesy spaghetti the natural way
Sometimes you just get an urge to eat something cheesy, who am I kidding, I get that urge all the blooming time! But as I'm not a huge fan of gluten free pasta on the whole and my skin is not a huge fan of eating cows cheese, I often get myself in a bit of a … Continue reading MEALS: Cheesy spaghetti the natural way

What you need: 2 eggs 1/4 cup of almond milk 4 slices of aubergine 1/4 onion Handful of spinach Chunk of stilton Spray … Continue reading BRUNCH: Green and blue omelette
DINNER: Vegetable and chicken pie
I spend a lot of my life explaining to people that I really don't like most pies, I mean I just don't understand them! Why would you want to eat meat that's all mushed up in pastry? No thank you. I do however enjoy an open pie with lots of vegetables and no gravy for … Continue reading DINNER: Vegetable and chicken pie
