There is no greater comfort food than mac and cheese, and I find that so many of the pre-made options just aren't on the same level. Either the sauce isn't even cheesy, or it has this odd grainy texture to it which does take away from the 'comfort' side of the meal. I have been … Continue reading Easy vegan mac and cheese

Vegan Nutella has landed!!
I finally found it! So far I have only been able to find it in Sainsbury's, but my hope is that it will soon spread wider and become more widely available.

High protein chocolate and banana porridge
The cold and the rain has settled in truly here in the UK, so I have been experimenting with making my meals healthy but comforting. Annoyingly, when food is comforting it tends to be smothered in chocolate or deep fried, which is not great when I am still trying to stay consistent with my current … Continue reading High protein chocolate and banana porridge
