THE RECIPES
My passion is to bring you the tastiest recipes with the least amount of fuss and the most amount of health benefits.
Gochujang Kimcheez Toastie
Toastie, the sandwich dreams are made of! Growing up we had a toasted sandwich maker. Writing this I am tempted to buy one! But I digress.. you can make great toasted sandwiches in your frying pan and this combination of vegan gochujang cheez sauce, gochujang flavoured tempeh and kimchi take the humble toastie to a whole new level. I feel like a vegan David Chang!
Mexican Lentil Soup
I loved lentils and Mexican food before becoming vegan. I never thought of combining the two. That all changed when reading Eddie Garza’s book “Salud”, where he had a recipe for a Mexican lentil soup.
This is my take on his tasty recipe. I’ve added tempeh “chorizo” (which is a staple in my house) to bump up the protein. I’ve also added some red pepper to give extra vitamin c to increase iron absorption. Wether you choose to serve with tempeh, bread, or both, this will leave you satisfied and nourished.
Jamie Beets Burger
This is one of the best burgers I have ever made and I spent a lot of time perfecting the recipe.
This is so easy to make and pull together. If you can’t get your hands on chipotle powder (which I strongly encourage), then add another teaspoon of smoked paprika and add a teaspoon of your favourite chilli powder.
Warming Butternut Squash Soup
If you are looking for food to warm you up then this is it!
This soup is filling and protein packed thanks to the lentils and chickpeas. This is also pretty simple to make with not a lot of effort required.
It can be served on its own or with some crusty wholemeal bread.
