Vegan Banana Bread

Is there anything better to boost your mood than a slice of banana bread in the afternoon? Mine is packed full of oats and has less sugar in the whole thing than one Starbucks Frappuccino.

This is a great cake to make out of leftover bananas and will make your elevensies the envy of the office.

Vegan Sweet and Sour Vegetables

My sweet and sour stir fried vegetables hit the spot every time - the familiar flavours from your favourite take away with none of the guilt. The hardest part of this dish is not eating the whole damn thing in one sitting.

Blueberry Banana Vegan Pancakes

It's a truth universally acknowledged that a big weekend must be in want of pancakes. Mine are the perfectly sweet and can soothe the pain of anything that happened the night before.

These take around fifteen minutes to make and are the perfect accompaniment to my boyfriend's favorite fruit, mimosas.

Red Velvet Beetroot Vegan Cupcakes with Coconut Frosting

Nothing says indulgence like a red velvet cupcake, but as these are made entirely from plants it's basically like eating one of your five a day...right?

These cupcakes are super easy to make and great for celebrations (or maybe just a friday night in). 

Smoky Chickpeas

My smoky chickpeas are the perfect combination of sweet, salty and spicy.

These take barely 20 minutes to cook and are ideal fridge staple for snacking or topping summer salads with.

Caribbean Coconut Lime Rice

This rice is a game changer. If you're looking for an amazing side dish or just a simple one pot meal in itself, this is the one.

This would be perfect to have with grilled meats or veggies and will be approximately 500 times better than a sad potato salad.

Cauliflower rice is a trend I've wanted to try out for a while and tonight was the night. 

Along with courgetti this a great way to try and eat more veggies and whilst fooling your brain into thinking it's eating carbs.

Fiery Pineapple

With the weather getting warmer it won't be too long before a family BBQ, and this pineapple dish is a perfect side

Spicy Baked Rice

This recipe is one of the best things you can do with rice

It's spicy, fresh, and full of veggies. Use this as a side or part of a burrito and you will have no regrets.

Winter Warmer Veggie Stew

I've always felt that stew gets a bad rep. This dinner is cheap, nourishing and tasty as hell. What's not to love?

This dinner is perfect when you want to stretch your pennies but refuse to compromise on taste. Also it gets as complicated as 'chop and add to a pan'. Anyone can make a fantastic stew and this recipe will sort you out.

Spiced Carrot and Lentil soup

It is often said that the most humble of beginnings can lead to the most glorious of endings. I have a feeling that was spoken about this soup

This is super cheap and incredibly tasty. Get your hand blenders ready; it's soup time.

This smoothie is sweet, creamy and totally delicious

It takes about four minutes to make and is sure to keep you full till lunch time making it a win in my books.

Pistachio and Fig Smoothie

Yet with my pistachio and fig smoothie you can enjoy a healthy sweet start to the day and feel great.

Chia breakfast pudding

When it comes to pretentious breakfasts, this one is pretty high up there. However its really easy to make and is packed full of goodness. Most important of all, it tastes amazing.

This takes around 5 minutes of prep time, let it rest over night and in the morning you have a breakfast ready to go that you can feel smug about.

Packed full of veggies this soup should be enough to ward off the last of the freshers flu

Minestrone is as inexpensive as it is tasty making it ideal for any student. Winter is coming, and this soup will keep you warm and satisfied all day long.

Paprika Hummus

Potentially one of the greatest gifts the middle east has given us, hummus is a staple in my kitchen as its incredibly easy to make, filled to the brim with protein and damn tasty.

 My simple twist on the classic involves paprika and a hint of chili

6 minute Tortilla Chips

I consider the humble tortilla chip to be one of mankind's greatest inventions

 The only thing more exciting than these crunchy vessels of joy is that they can be ready in exactly 6 minutes
