Oh this meal is so good. I am a recent convert to jackfruit but I am convinced this meal will delight meat eaters and vegans alike. The jackfruit gives a wonderful texture and the flavours of the sauce are lovely. It does take a bit of planning to make the wraps but definitely worth it. And be warned, it is more filling than you would think! Two wraps each was plenty for us but this recipe makes enough for eight wraps (four people). Continue reading Pulled jackfruit wraps
They may not look pretty but these lumpy little cashew and coconut biscuits are delicious and a firm favourite with Rob. Plus they go perfectly with a coffee. Thank you to Gail for donating this recipe (although I have doctored it slightly according to what I had in my cupboards). Makes 6 biscuits so double up if you are catering for more.

Let’s face it, it’s cold outside and Christmas is over. We all want nourishing, comforting food at this time of year. Well, this shepherd-less pie is just the thing to satisfy your comfort cravings. Vegan and gluten-free too and all the ingredients are available plastic free. This will make enough pie for 6 hungry people or 8 more moderately sized portions.
Have you ever tried one of those Nakd bars? They are pretty tasty but unfortunately they come wrapped in plastic. So, thanks to one of our lovely customers, I am able to share with you a recipe for your very own fruit bar, and these truly are ‘naked’. This is a really simple recipe which is gluten free, vegan, and sugar free. But I assure it, they don’t taste well behaved. Eating these gives me my sweet snack fix for the day. The dates give these bars a deliciously fudgey taste and I assure you they are a great way to pack in some healthy sugars if you are planning on climbing any mountains.

I made this cake as a dessert when we had guests over and it was an absolute hit. I had never tried vegan baking before so I was a bit hesitant over whether it would all work but it did. Due to the amount of fruit in this plant based chocolate cake I feel like it can even be called healthy too ;). Even better, most of the ingredients are available from our shop plastic free! It is a bit faffy and perhaps not the most elegant cake but well worth the effort for the taste.
Growing up we always had crepes but I can safely say I am now fully converted to these American style blueberry pancakes. They are a delicious way to start a weekend and an absolute must for Pancake Day. If it was up to me we would be eating this every day of the week. This recipe is also entirely dairy free.
