Smoky Tofu Stuffed Peppers

A relatively easy dish, this serves 2 as a lunch or a side. Chiquino peppers are pictured, but I also made this dish successfully with bell peppers (capiscum); the same method and timing applies. Ingredients For the Tofu Filling 300g silken tofu ½ tsp garlic powder 1 tsp onion granules 2 tsp paprika 1 tbsp […]

Peanut Butter Banana Overnight Oats

Ideal for those who don’t like to cook, this is more a breakfast suggestion than a recipe. It’s really simple to put together, and although it’s a single-serving, it’s easily doubled or even quadrupled for a great family breakfast. Ingredients 1/2 cup rolled oats 1/2 cup chocolate almond milk (or other chocolate plant milk) 1/4 […]

Speedy Chocolate Mug Cake

Rich, spongy, sticky: this chocolate mug cake is wholewheat and free from refined sugar. However, if you’re feeling decadent, you can serve it with some suitable-for-vegans chocolate sauce and/or peanut butter. Serves 1-2, depending on how much of a sweet tooth you have. Ingredients Suitable-for-vegan spray oil, for greasing the mug 1/2 small banana 70g […]

Fragrant Orange Cauliflower Bites

A healthier and budget version of a takeaway favourite: baked breaded and battered cauliflower in a spicy orange sauce. Ready in about 40 minutes, and a perfect accompaniment to rice and plenty of sautéed mushrooms and greens. Serves 4. Ingredients 1 medium head cauliflower, in florets For the coating 35g breadcrumbs 75g flour 1 tsp […]

Sticky Lemon Cauliflower

A make-at-home meal that will rival the takeaway version and that’s ready in about 40 minutes. The battered cauliflower is baked rather than deep-fried, but we wouldn’t class this as healthfood nonetheless. Serves 4. Ingredients 1 head cauliflower, in florets For the Batter 120g wholemeal flour 65g cornflour 2 tsp baking powder 2 tsp Chinese […]

Tempeh au Poivre

A rich and decadently-flavoured dinner that takes just 30 minutes to prepare, including marinating time, this tempeh au poivre is best accompanied by roasted vegetables and potatoes, or steamed greens and French fries. It serves 2. Ingredients 1 block tempeh (approx. 250g), halved For the Marinade 1/4 cup soy sauce 1/4 cup water 2 tsp […]
