I have never made proper jam before, mainly because it sounds very labour intensive with a huge amount of sugar! In fact I don’t really eat a lot of jam on toast either, I am much more or a peanut butter girl! But there is something about a thick doorstop slice of white toast, thick … Continue reading
Tofu scramble is one of those things that when done well can be simply the best vegan breakfast ever! I love scrambled eggs and was convinced nothing would ever replace this breakfast in my life. The first time I tried scrambled tofu it was awful, bland and mushy. It took me awhile to try it … Continue reading
I recently visited my friends for a girly BBQ in East Dulwich followed by a party in Clapham, London. The next morning a cooked breakfast was definitely needed so we headed out for the local cafe in hope for some headache cures. I always feel a bit cautious of ‘local cafes’, I love supporting local … Continue reading
I love instagram (for the same reasons as I love pinterest, it’s an easy way to browse beautiful photos of inspiring food) and I have been trying to keep up with my account but when looking back over my profile I realised that the only time I seem to take photos is breakfast at the … Continue reading

I chose another gluten free recipe because I didn’t want to contaminate the kitchen with flour but also because it is better for you. I imagine the cake and muffins will get shared around the … Continue reading
I’m not vegan although I love cooking vegan foods (often without even realising the dish is vegan until I am typing up the recipe) and I am always trying to think of vegan options for my recipes. One ingredient I think is very hard to substitute is an egg. In baking you can use a … Continue reading
I finally learnt how to make an Omelette! In the past I would beat the eggs and pour them in the pan but after a few seconds I don’t know why I would just panic and scramble them. I blame the omelette challenge on Saturday Morning Kitchen because the chefs would frantically break up the … Continue reading
Isn’t life funny sometimes. I feel like everything has just come full circle because today I decided to have a go at making a twist on my more traditional bubble and squeak recipe and when I clicked on my blog to find it I realised that exactly one year ago today I posted that said … Continue reading
