I finally decided to brave the cold winter weather (we have had rain for 47 days in a row so far!) and decided to finally visit Oxford. I have always heard great things about this city, and now that I live relatively close by, I thought there was no better reason to visit than now. … Continue reading Crosstown The Bride doughnut

When baking goes ary…
I moved house about 6 months ago and I am still getting used to how the new appliances work, especially the new oven. I am slowly getting used to it, but since we also have an air fryer, progress has been very slow. I therefore tried to bake some cookies over the weekend and...well...lessons were … Continue reading When baking goes ary…
Mummy Meegz choccy balls
Valentine's day has been and gone, and I hope you all had a lovely day if you are someone who celebrates the day. Personally, I don't, but I am always a big fan of seeing all of the love that goes around during Valentine's day.

Buttermilk choc wafer bar
It seems there has been a bit of a hole in my life since the vegan kitkat has been discontinued. There are still great chocolate options out there, but sometimes there are itches that no amount of dairy-free chocolate can scratch. I still get a little grumpy when I walk through my local groceries and … Continue reading Buttermilk choc wafer bar
Tofu Heaven tofu bites
This was easily the best accidental find that I mae whilst in Rotterdam. As a city, Rotterdam seemed amazing for vegan food and vegan options, and I definitely would like to go back to fully explore it all without needing to rush. Our cruise ship was only docked in Rotterdam for around 24 hours, and … Continue reading Tofu Heaven tofu bites

Granted, I think this began at the beginning of October, but here we are in November and I swear I can barely move for the amount of Christmas decorations currently in the shops. I am not normally one who decorates … Continue reading Chocolate orange bourbon cookies

Bacon has been focused on in particular because Durham University academics tested alerts on 1,000 people and found … Continue reading Should meat come with a warning label?
Best vegan candy for Halloween
Halloween is around the corner and I am very excited! Halloween is my favourite time of year and whilst I celebrate Halloween a little differently nowadays, I am always a fan of any celebration that promotes eating lots of candy and watching spooky movies. I therefore thought it would be helpful to compile a list … Continue reading Best vegan candy for Halloween
UPDATE – Is the European Union planning to ban widely-used ‘meaty names’ for plant-based food?
Further to my original post, The European Parliament has indeed voted to ban the use of traditional meat names - including ‘steak’ and ‘burger’ - to describe plant-based alternatives. Members of the conservative EPP (European People’s Party) group supported the move, arguing that using meat and dairy terminology for vegan-friendly counterparts is “misleading for the … Continue reading UPDATE – Is the European Union planning to ban widely-used ‘meaty names’ for plant-based food?
Plant Pioneer no chicken kievs
I feel that the chicken kyiv is quite the staple of the British cuisine, and so when I went vegetarian it was quite hard to find anything as a replacement, let alone finding a vegan alternative. The few I have tried have always ended up being very bland and super dry, so I admit when … Continue reading Plant Pioneer no chicken kievs
