Okay so I know that pancake day has just passed – but I really wasn’t sure I’d be able to make good vegan pancakes, so I wasn’t too excited about it. Turns out – vegan pancakes are one of the easiest things you could possibly make and now I just want to have pancakes all…

Accidentally Vegan Products of the Week: Pies and Tarts
All the time I discover supermarket products that I assumed would not be vegan but by some miracle actually are. So I thought I would document the new things I find each week – as knowing that you can satisfy your sweet craving in Sainbury’s, not just your local health food shop which only does…
5 REASONS: Pizza Express Loves Vegans
Pizza Express is rapidly becoming one of my go to chain restaurants if I want a good vegan meal out. It’s great because my friends don’t mind going there either and they often have loads of deals which makes eating out really cheap.

REVIEW: Amazing Vegan Hot Chocolate
I am a huge hot chocolate fan (I have so much each week, it is bad!) and I was given hot chocolate from Whittard’s as a present and this is without a doubt one of the best hot chocolate mixture’s I have ever owned! It is lovely and indulgent without being sickly sweet and it…

RECIPE: QUICK, EASY FALAFELS!!
Falafel – together with houmous and kale it makes up the holy trinity of vegan foodstuffs. I LOVE falafels so much but I have never really got down to making them, which is silly because they’re actually super easy – you can just chuck everything into the blender. I used to think they were really…
REVIEW: VEGAN HAZELNUT CHOCOLATE BAR
OMG I bought this chocolate bar today at my local health foods store and it is quite potentially the best dairy-free chocolate bar I’ve ever had! I know – quite a statement…
RECIPE: White Chocolate Oat Peanut Butter Cups
Have you ever craved something so sweet so badly but had no real dessert or sweet ingredients in your cupboard? That was totally me yesterday evening, I realised I had a bar of vegan white chocolate and in desperation created these white chocolate oat things from what I had and I have to say they…
RECIPE: VEGAN KORMA
I love korma so much – even though I love a lot of Indian food, I always come back to the classic that is that creamy, full of flavour korma. Until now I have never been able to make a really thick and creamy korma sauce, but the revelation that is cashew cream has allowed…
