Having decided to eat less meat, I have been looking for a good alternative to a burger. When I say ‘good alternative’, I mean, something you can get your teeth into that has good flavor and texture. To this end, to start off with, I convinced Mr. B and my foodie friend to try one …
I have had this recipe percolating in the back of my mind since my visit to New Orleans. I went to a restaurant called Upperline in the Garden District, away from the hustle and bustle of the city and had the most wonderful meal. The owner’s aim with Upperline is to restore the original meaning …
I saw this on the plant based pixie blog and just couldn’t resist making my own version. Such a fun idea for Christmas and although a little fiddly, totally worth it for the awe and wonder from your guests when they see their plate. I decided to adapt this recipe to make it an all …
Salty, sweet and spicy; an umami treat to wake you up on a Sunday morning. This is one of Mr. B’s favorite brunches as he loves avocado, bacon and corn, so this dish brings all his favorite foods together. I love this dish due to the combination of sweet and salt in addition to its …

This recipe has gluten, dairy and a lot of love. It is a deviation from my normal recipes, purely because the local supermarket had run out of pumpkin pie the night before thanksgiving and Mr B really loves pumpkin pie. We could have gone to the supermarket on thanksgiving, but it has been our mini …
I’ve seen these delightful morsels all over instagram and wondered if you could really get the same moreish taste into a cauliflower as a you can a bowl of chicken wings. The answer is categorically yes and with a lot fewer calories. The trick is to make sure you get the same crispy finish and …
