Some people like chocolates and cupcakes. At the risk of sounding like healthy-eating uber-nerds, we Veggie Runners love a good protein ball. Yes, really. But there’s a reason for that: these Roasted Nut Protein Balls are absolutely delicious. They’re sweet, moist, tasty, vegan and incredibly good for you – what’s not to love?! No added…
Vegan Wild Garlic Pesto
If you have a nose on your face (and I really hope you do), you’ll have noticed that wild garlic is wildly in season right now in Britain.* All over the country shady woodland is carpeted with pretty white flowers and lush green leaves. I went foraging for some at the weekend, scrambling around the…
Vegan Spiced Lentil Stew
Ooh, look – Will Self loves our lentils!* *Actually, he’s never expressed the slightest interest in our lentils (though I bet he’d love them if he got the chance). What really happened was I spilt a bag of them all over – and lentils really do get all over – and he was the nearest thing…
Vegan Nutella Cookies
These Vegan Nutella Cookies help me forget that I totally failed at Lent. I’m not religious but I do like a challenge. My Lent-alution (Lent-resolution) had been to start meditating every day for ten minutes. I managed a week. I did feel the benefits of that one week, but I didn’t properly prioritise it, and…
Vegan Beetroot and Chickpea Spread
‘Abandon everything else you’re doing and start producing this stuff full time!’ So said our taste tester for this Vegan Beetroot and Chickpea Spread, which we reckon says all you need to know. It’s super-tasty, of course. Easy to make, naturally. Plus you get a good protein hit from the chickpeas, as well healthy doses…
Chia Seed and Roasted Rhubarb Dessert
As I’m sure you know, actors used to say ‘rhubarb, rhubarb, rhubarb’ in scenes to mimic the sound of background conversation. Rhubarb is such a great word in its own right though – such odd spelling, such a lovely rolling ‘r’ sound, signifying such an amazing fruit. Why, it’s worth repeating! Rhubarb, rhubarb, rhubarb… Rhubarb…
Chia Seed Pitta Breads
Far better to make resolutions for Lent than New Years. January is a terrible time for self-improvement – it’s dark, cold and your cupboards are still full of the booze from Christmas. Spring, on the other hand, is by definition all about new beginnings. Take something on for the 40 days of Lent, and by…
Vegan Pancakes
Everybody loves pancakes, right? These are quick and easy to make – fab as a healthy breakfast with fruit and yoghurt and great with peanut butter and/or jam for marginally less healthy start to the day! It’s Shrove Tuesday today – aka Pancake Tuesday (aka Day of Joy on a Plate!) but you can eat…
Chocolate Nut Energy Bars
Heavens, thank god for these Chocolate Nut Energy Bars, that’s all I can say! We did the Snake Lane 10 Mile Race at the weekend and all that got me round was knowing that I had a box full of these beauties waiting near the finish line. Bibi was bounding along, chatting away to everybody (like…
Fennel and Black Eyed Bean Soup
My mum/Bibi’s grandma, Shirley, is far too busy having fun to spend all her time in the kitchen. She’s a world famous blogger for a start* and she has her writing group, reading club, gym sessions, charity shop work, coffee with her mates, hair do once a week without fail etc etc to keep…
Vegan Apricot and Chia Seed Smoothie
Bibi’s grandma, Shirley*, is going through a bit of a phase at the moment. She’s trying to get rid of clutter and keeps pointing at mad things that I emphatically don’t want and saying ‘That’s yours’. Usually I pretend I haven’t heard. When she pointed to these vintage cut glass crystal glasses though, I said…
Ginger Granola with Quinoa Crunchies
People who make their own granola have a certain reputation for being smug. And, you know what? The smugness is totally earned. In between playing with my new kittens yesterday afternoon (after my trail race and before triathlon swim training!) I managed to make 2 full batches of granola with very little effort at all….
