We love trying new recipes. Especially when they go as well as this vegan burrito. A part of it even came about by accident, but more on that later. If you’re on this page, there’s a good chance you know exactly how great vegan food can be. Some still have …

The Ultimate Microwave Baked Potato Guide Every now and then we get really immersed in a recipe. And so I have been eating at least one microwave baked potato almost every day for MONTHS. In all shapes and sizes, flavours and toppings. Almost non-stop actually. Microwave potatoes are now my …

We can’t stop you eating sandwiches. Nor do we want to. Sandwiches have been a mainstay of lunch for as long as we can remember. But we can make them more nutritious, and truly deserving of a place in any well-balanced healthy diet. A levelled up sandwich, if you will. …

Sweet potato, avocado and cashews must have been the holy trinity of vegetarian cuisine in recent years.  And rightfully so! You can create many beautiful dishes with these ingredients. They work perfectly together as you’ll see once you’ve tried our new beauty – this Raunchy Sweet Potato Salad! We’ve kept …

Language is a funny old thing. Order a rocket soup in some places and you’ll be met with blank stares. In others, a joke about how fast you want it. In yet more, you’ll be handed a steaming hot bowl of tasty, green arugula soup. Yep, arugula is rocket and …

If you’ve followed us for even a short amount of time, it might have become obvious that I love sandwiches. And now I love sandwiches EVEN MORE as I’ve realised I can put tempeh in them. Mmmmm, tempeh sandwiches! Tempeh is a relatively new discovery for us, but it’s quickly …

Cashew cream is amazing! It’s one of those recipes that sneaks up on you and knocks it out of the park. This recipe was shared with us by a long-term reader Sharon (and 30 Day Vegan Challenger) and it’s an absolute keeper. Part cashew cream, part cashew dressing and part …

If there’s one thing we’ve learned in our time of recipe creation then it’s to listen to others. This easy green bean salad is another classic – not designed by us, but rather by Hauke’s grandma. Yep. Not the grandma of creamy cucumber salad fame, but rather the other grandma. …

Cucumber Sandwiches – the Dos and Don’ts This cucumber sandwich with cream cheese recipe started out as a bit of fun, but we soon realised that cucumber sandwiches are a pretty serious recipe. Well, in relative terms anyway. I’ve eaten a lot of sandwiches in my life – as I …

Vegan food rocks. We know that, and have done for a long time. But to some, and even with awesome recipes like this roasted & creamy corn soup, vegan food still has a stigma to get over. It shouldn’t be that way, but it is. No matter, we’re here to …

Up until a few years ago, I barely ate salad and even today it has to be something special to grab me. This watermelon and feta salad is something special. It goes without saying that watermelon and feta salad is perfect for the summer when watermelons are at their sweetest …

Although we’re not yet called ‘currythefoodup’, it has crossed my mind. With this onion chutney on board, I believe we now have three dips and chutneys, and six different curries available on site. There’s literally something for everyone. In case you hadn’t guessed, we love curry and its related edibles. …

We recently asked friends if they had any secret awesome recipes they’d like to share with us, and as soon as I was offered this Hungarian-style healthy sweet potato casserole I absolutely jumped at the chance! It was so good, and happily Viola, the creator, allowed us to share it …

The first time I ate stuffed bell peppers was nearly twelve years ago, on Christmas Day, 2006. And it was the only thing I ate that day. To cut a long story short, we had been invited to a Christmas Day BBQ next to Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia, and it …

Every food has its history, and this romesco sauce has one more glorious than most. Hailing from Tarragona in Catalonia, it has been through six hundred years of developments and reiterations, and seen more changes to the political and social climates of Spain than we ever will. It’s been there, …
