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 …

There comes a day in everyone’s life when they know they’re changing as a person. It could be after a revolutionary life event. It could be a ‘eureka’ moment, where they just get it. In my particular case it was the day I took tomato butter to a party. Yep. …

If you believe Game of Thrones, then Winter is Now Here. Luckily, however, we’re not in Westeros and winter is not here. I wouldn’t exactly call it summer either though, it hasn’t stopped raining for days. That aside, on the odd occasion the sun does come out, it really puts …

Pizza rocks! 😀 At least I certainly think so. It has a lot going for it. But for some, pizza potatoes are the answer. To most, ‘gluten-free’ is just a myth – a phrase made up by marketing supremos who target vulnerable eaters into paying more for a swishy new slogan …

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, …

It must be that time of year. I’m craving curry and I’m craving a health-kick, and I want them now. Roasted cauliflower curry takes care of both. Remember when I said how much I love Indian cuisine? That’s true. Very true. It’s amazing food, and one of favourites. But it’s …

There are certain skills that need be learnt when improving in the kitchen, and mastering the art of a good omelette is one of them. It’s not uncommon for chefs to ask potential apprentices to show their omelette skills – and there’s a reason for that. Preparing an omelette shows …

Vegan Tofu Bolognese. I imagine this is about as far as you can get from the recipe that gave the original dish its name. Although we thought we’d pissed off the Italians with our quick risotto, this one is taking things a step further. We swap the meat for tofu, …

Ah sandwiches. One of my favourite ever meals. Two slices of bread with something slapped in the middle. Attributed to John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich, this tasty concoction came about to allow the Earl to eat one-handed in the middle of a 24 hour gambling stint – and …

Roasting veggies is awesome. In my opinion it’s an essential for everybody who likes to eat good food with little effort. And which of us isn’t a lazy bastard at times? Once you know the basics you can prep an excellent meal on a baking tray within minutes. Let it …

‘Let it go, let it gooooooooo’… Nope, I haven’t just been watching Frozen (I have), but rather I’m coming to terms with accepting that summer’s on its way out. Gone are the long hours of brilliant, dazzling sunlight… gone are the balmy evenings of chilling on the balcony… gone are …

What do athletes eat? We thought we’d try a new spin on a few recipes –  and find out what the healthiest and fittest among us actually eat. You’re still hitting the gym, the workouts are going well…and you are what you eat. So let’s find out. The original recipe …

I have a confession to make. I haven’t quite been alone in the kitchen. Kat, my more talented other half, has been developing recipes with abandon. This simple, sexy salsa recipe is one of hers. These quesadillas are one of our favourite meals, and we’ve been experimenting with them recently …

As we pointed out a few days ago when we released our Melted Feta Bake, the best way of eating well and staying healthy isn’t to follow the latest trends and life-changing diets (lose 400kg in just two days!), but to adapt yourself to an overall healthier intake. Robbing yourself …

It’s that time of year again. January is here and nearly gone, bringing it with it hopes and dreams for the new year, along with promises and (broken) resolutions – and everywhere you look the masses are there, shouting about the newest diet fad, the best sit-up regime or the …

This particular recipe started as one we were researching for hangover ‘cures’. With Christmas, New Year and most certainly hangovers looming on the ever nearing horizon, we decided to try and create a vegan and a vegetarian dish that would potentially allay that most horrible of feelings – the morning …
