I made asparagus/ricotta/cranberry puff pastry tarts with toasted pine nuts for vegetarian family night!
I scraped off the majority of my ricotta because my stomach really disagrees with dairy, but the rest of my family all agreed a butternut squash purée would be better in place of the ricotta/lemon/parmesan/paprika mix, so these could be made completely vegan and would taste better, too! :D
Each tart was served with a simple salad of iceberg, cucumber and baby plum tomatoes in an olive oil/balsamic/s&p dressing. It all went down a treat! :)
Quinoa flake oatmeal made with pb, cinnamon, vanilla, apple sauce and mashed banana, topped with the remaining banana, crushed pecans and walnuts, coconut and a drizzle of maple syrup.
I love breakfasts like this that keep you satisfied for hours. :)
Mexican almond milk hot chocolate with mini (vegan) marshmallows.
I used cacao powder, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, almond butter, agave and a little brown sugar as well as a cup and a bit of unsweetened almond milk. Yum. :)
Vegan butternut squash “mac n cheeze” made with buckwheat spirals, extra squash, spinach, pumpkin seeds and freshly cracked black pepper.
Oh em gee was this good. I’ve had the mac n cheeze recipe saved for ages and time after time it’s been raved about, but I just never got round to making it for some peculiar reason. Now I know why I hadn’t - because I’ve tasted it and I’ll be making it every day for the rest of my life. <3_<3
It’s so flavourful! And healthy!! The main ingredients are squash, almond milk and nutritional yeast. It’s so much lower in fat than its traditional counterpart and much lighter, too. You don’t feel heavy and have this sense of self loathing and “Never again, ugh” after eating a big bowlful. Can you tell I enjoyed it?!
I omitted the mustard because mustard is the devil’s food and it was perfect for my taste buds. I added about 1/4 cup more almond milk to thin it out as well as a pinch of nutmeg and paprika. Thank goodness I still have 2/3 of the sauce left, I’m putting it on everything! :D
Recipe here!

This is now my new go to oatmeal recipe! Thank you Rosie for showing me it! The recipe is as follows:
1/2 a banana (mashed), 1 tbsp apple sauce, a few shakes of cinnamon (1/4 tsp?), 1/2 tbsp peanut butter and a dash of vanilla, all mixed up. Then add in 1/2 cup oats, coat with the mix, lastly adding 1 cup almond milk. Microwave for 2 1/2 - 3 minutes until lovely and thick. Top with the remaining banana and a lil’ maple syrup. :)
Breakfast - Banana, cinnamon and peanut butter oatmeal topped with more banana, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds and a drizzle of maple syrup, apple and cinnamon tea and a glass of apple/banana/cucumber/pea smoothie with ice. :)

Vegan snickerdoodles! (I think this will be the last thing I bake for a while, I’m all baked out, haha.)
We had some cinnamon sugar left over from when I made the cinnamon and toasted pecan plait, so of course, the natural thing to do was to make some snickerdoodles. I’ve never actually had one before but they tasted good so I’m assuming this is what they’re meant to turn out like!
I can’t remember what recipe I used, but if you google “vegan snickerdoodles” a bunch come up. :)
