Dinners
A comforting, budget-friendly tomato soup with a rich tomato base, sweet softened onion and garlic, and a creamy finish from coconut cream. Enjoy it on its own, with a slice of toasted sourdough bread for dunking, or topped with an extra swirl of olive oil for richness and healthy fats.
A whole roasted eggplant, cooked until silky and smoky, then split open and loaded with warm chickpeas and a garlicky tahini drizzle. Simple to make, but looks impressive on the table. Serve it as a main with flatbread or as a shareable side.
A rustic, easy and delicious upside-down tart with caramelised onion and hummus baked under a golden, flaky puff pastry. Flip it out of the oven to reveal the sticky, sweet onion layer on top. Easy enough for a quick lunch, but looks impressive enough to serve at a dinner. Enjoy it warm or at room…
A rich, velvety pasta sauce that tastes like autumn in a bowl, silky pumpkin, creamy blended cashews, and deep, caramelised roasted garlic pulled together with a savoury nutritional yeast kick. Loaded with fibre, healthy fats and B vitamins. Toss it through pasta or gnocchi, or serve as a warm dip with crusty bread.

Tahini brings a nutty, creaminess while tomato paste adds a deep, slightly sweet tang and the curry powder warms the whole thing up. Nutritionally, chickpeas bring plant-based protein and fibre and tahini adds healthy fats, calcium and magnesium. Spoon it over…
These are the tacos I make when I want something nourishing, delicious and a little different for breakfast. Smoky, golden chickpeas get tossed through a bright herb and tahini sauce, layered with cool cucumber and creamy avocado, then piled into a crisp, charred tortilla. It’s a plant-based switch-up on classic black bean breakfast tacos, packed…
This creamy green orzo is everything I want in a comfort meal. Silky, herby, and secretly packed with plant protein. The “sauce” is just blended peas, spinach, basil, parsley, cashews and pine nuts, so you get that rich, cheesy flavour with zero dairy. It’s a 20-minute one-pot dinner that still feels a little bit fancy.
This one came together with Sarah from plantbaes and it’s exactly the kind of dish I love creating with her. Texture-driven, nutrient dense and packed with flavour. Pasta gets baked until golden and shatteringly crisp, then piled onto a fresh, herb-packed salad and finished with a creamy, tangy green goddess dressing made from blended herbs…
