High Protein Vegetarian Recipes

I knew about pasta arrabiata long before I had ever tried pasta arrabiata. That was thanks to the excellent Eddie Izzard, and his now infamous Death Star Canteen sketch. Well worth checking out. So what is pasta arrabiata, anyway? Arrabiata itself is a sauce based on tomatoes, garlic and chilli …

These no egg pancakes appeared in a very roundabout away. We love pancakes, and always have (in fact, these bad boys helped launch the site). Recently, we’ve been asked more and more for ‘no egg’ pancakes. Not necessarily vegan like these, but just ‘no egg’ pancakes. Why ‘no egg’ pancakes? …

What did the cheese say to herself in the mirror? Halloooooo me! Ok then, if you’ll forgive me, onto the halloumi salad. No more cheese jokes. Not even the one about the explosion at the cheese factory. Which was awful. De-brie was everywhere and the Swiss riddled with holes. Sorry! …

This month is a month for favorites. Or is that favourites? However you spell it, chickpea wraps are one of our favourites. And you know why? Because they include wraps. And chickpeas. Chickpea wraps. The name is quite fitting. Something else that’s a favourite of ours are recipes that are …

Sometimes decadence is important. And this leek risotto is decadent. And important. Don’t get us wrong – we eat healthy food all the time, and know the incredible value of it. It’s imperative to our well-being and health. Nutrition is something we take seriously, and indeed, pride ourselves on. Our …

We do get quite obsessed with things here at HurryTheFoodup. Tempeh Salad is our new love. Our first foray into tempeh came about relatively recently – and it was a revelation. Before starting the 30 Day Vegan Challenge, we teamed up with Christine – long-time vegan and talented cook. It …

This falafel salad recipe really made us think. Is it ok to use falafel mix? Or even pre-packaged falafel? For the most part we really do like to promote whole foods over processed – they generally have more flavour, they’re cheaper and pack more of nutritional punch. But sometimes, we …

High-protein ricotta pancakes. Even just writing that sentence makes me happy. We love pancakes, and when they’re simple, tasty and packed with protein we love them even more. Protein is important, and many people don’t get enough. If you’re not sure exactly how much protein you need then there’s a …

Summer is here – and we need this recipe. Salads can be great, but we’re often left begging for more. That’s where coconut curry lentil soup steps up. It keeps that summer spirit high with its fusion of tropical coconut and smooth curry, complementing it with a juicy multivitamin twist. …

Yesss! The sun is shining and that can only mean one thing – it’s officially the start of barbecue season! And that means it’s time for black bean burgers. Good black bean burgers. I will admit, one of the toughest things since I became veggie was getting a decent burger …

It’s going to be a good week. I knew it as soon as this recipe hit the top of my list. Noodle Omelette. Two of my favourite things right there – noodles and omelettes. Together. Awesome. The ultimate student food (or anyone on a budget, for that matter), it’s filling, …

I’ve been really looking forward to posting these vegan breakfast potatoes for a long time now. Once in a while recipes come along that I just can’t stop eating, and these breakfast potatoes are one such recipe. All of us on the blog absolutely loved the farmer’s breakfast, and I …

For some weird reason, British food doesn’t always have the best reputation around the world. To anybody that’s eaten a great vegetarian toad in the hole (or even a regular toad in the hole), that’s an absolutely travesty. I will agree that it does have an unusual name, though happily …

Sexy veggie lentil stew. Let’s face it, there’s nothing sexy about stew. But, let me explain. Looking after your body = hot. Hot is sexy. Lentil stew looks after your body, and your body will look after you. If you’re reading this at the start of the new year, and …

Some recipes are deceptively simple. Although I first learnt how to make scrambled eggs with cheese when I was about 13, I just really did not know how great they could and would become. Of course, you could just throw some eggs in a pan, launch some cheese on top, …

Ahh, cucumber raita. A dish as cool as a…well, a cucumber. A cucumber that’s been dipped in yoghurt and kept in the fridge. Refreshing, and certainly pleasing on the palate too. Some people say I’m obsessed with Indian food. That’s not true. I just love it. And think about it …
