A Very Vegan Easter

Aloha Vegan friends..and a Happy Easter to you!

Archi presenting me with an egg hahaha

My Easter this year started off slow and lonely, sat in bed watching Sabrina the Teenage Witch  missing my family, thinking of last year when I was flying around Harry Potter world drinking butter beer with my daddykins.

So yep, I didn't have high expectations, I had a little pitty party then remembered that Archi (my cat) had bought me an Easter Egg from asda yesterday!!..As if she went to all that effort and just knew that chocolate would cheer me!! haha
I would have inserted more up close pictures of the egg, but It seems to have disappeared..no idea where!!! All I can see is that asda freefrom Easter eggs are epic..and very moreish!

So after a whole series of Sabrina, my vegan Chummy Linn Boo invited me around and cooked me a nut-roast, all home made, completely tasty and made with pure vegan love (and insane effort with only one working shoulder atm!!) Without the Huddersfield Vegans, my beloved group, we would never have met, so if I have anything to thank veganism for (I have soo much to thank veganism for!!!) making fiends..FAMILY is one of them!

Me and the Mighty Boo, soo happy to have a vegan roast, epic chatter and wine!

THE Roast <3

So the above plate of beautiful food contained;

• Homemade Nut roast, with chestnuts in..super yummmmmy
• Leeks
• Beans
• Carrots cooked in maple syrup
• Gravy
• Roast Potatoes
• and flipping sweet potatoes

OM TO THE NOM NOM

Overall, a beautiful meal, with an awesome friend, totally made my Easter!!...Yay for vegan food, yay for vegan friends!!

Hope you all celebrated with cruelty free chocolate and a cruelty free roast, with people you care about!!

Thanks for reading

Much Love

What did I eat this weekend? January 17th and 18th

January 17th and 18th

Aloha.
I hope everyones weekend was just lovely! I have been very busy and therefore didn't post yesterday! I thought I would do the entire weekend in one go.

Saturday

So today I went on a meditation course in Huddersfield. I actually gave up a lie in to do this, which for me is pretty epic. I forgot to photo breakfast, but it was extremely unhealthy, herbal tea and biscuits! oops!

Lunch

I went into town after the meditation course (which was amazing) and decided that I would continue my day of relaxing by enjoying some Costa and book time. I love this. Put my headphones in, read a book and drink a bucket of soy chai latte. I cant recommend this drink enough! I also enjoyed an M &S samosa.

Tea

For my dinner (or tea as the northern folk call it)  I decided to make some vegan Hulloumi. I was super hungry from swimming and needed some comfort food.
I did this by pressing some firm tofu over night (planning is key) and making a paste out of nutritional yeast, paprika, salt, and turmeric. This was then left to marinate a bit and then fried. I served on a bagel with rocket, mushrooms, spinach and some sweet chilli. To accompany I made kale crisps. NOM NOM NOM NOM

Sunday

Breakfast was unfortunately missed today due to having several glasses of wine too many last night! My bad! I slept through, but then made a lovely lunch.


Lunch

Grilled cheese sandwich and kale crisps. I am obsessed wit kale crisps atm. They are so simple and soo tasty!

Tea

For tea I got some veggie burgers and a sweet potato. Shoved them in the oven for half an hour with a giant mushroom, asparagus, tiny leeks, broccoli and some spring onion. Sprayed with fry light. Food heaven. Served with greens! Lovely

Overall some top food this weekend!

Much Love

Easy Vegan Pizza

 PIZZA

So this probably doesnt count a recipe, but this is how I made a super tasty vegan pizza. Since its friday it seems only right that one should enjoy a film and a slice of vegan yummyness!!


Ingredients:

Violife Cheese
Pizza Base mix
Garlic
Tomato puree or sauce
Nutritional Yeast
Mushrooms
Onions
Peppers
Spinach
Rocket

Firstly make a base, I use a packet mix, because , well its simple, tasty and really cheap! (especially when one is a lone diner)

Hopefully yours turns out more circular than mine. While you're making the base, preheat the oven and make sure that you have a baking tray and some baking paper at the ready.

Add your tomato sauce of choice

Sprinkle of your nutritional yeast on it

Add the veggies of your choice!

Grate some violife on that badboy

Put in the oven for around 15 minutes and add some rocket before serving

Enjoy PIZZA HEAVEN

OM NOM NOM

A very simple way to make a yummy, cheap vegan pizza!

Enjoy

Much Love

What did I eat today?.. January 3rd

Day 3 of this blog and I've had quite the interest. Nearly 1k page visits. Thank you to everyone who has been so supportive. The vegan community really is a magical one. Everyone is just Lovely!

Foood!:

Breakfast:

I slept in..like really slept in. Only one more lie in until I'm back at work..so I'm really making the most of it!!..So for a quick healthy breakfast I made a smoothie. I unlike others don't have a recipe for this. I just throw in loads of fruit, spinach, bit of soy milk and some juice, blend and boom..good to go. In this one I had mango, blueberries, spinach, raspberry, grapes, pineapple, apple, melon (basically I have a shelf in my freezer full of frozen fruit so I can just make a quick one)

Lunch

I've spent much of the day at my computer doing marking and planning for work, so I have a very dull lunch (actually a strong favorite) of Marmite sadwiches, asda pretend monster munch and some bourbons. Exciting!

Tea

So my final meal of the day was two portabello mushrooms on a bed of spinach with some sweet chili and some of last nights pasta  (waste nothing I say!!). Also had a brownie! Lovely!!

This did fill me up!!

Tomorrow is my last day of the holidays, This makes me sad, however, It does mean that I will be baking as my office loves some nice treats!! 

Hope you're all having a top weekend! 

Much love
