Shiny new thread

Today has been
L: grapes, 2 plums, sticky rice traybake with butternut, cashews and broccoli
S: handful of pistachios
D: potato and violife feta bake with cherry tomatoes, beetroot and Bombay carrot salad

B: toast and marmite
L: just fruit, nuts and crisps really
D: Vegan chilli and rice

No it won’t make a difference to isolation, BA is doing trial testing to show the government there’s a way of doing it that allows people to fly without 14days of quarantine, will give me some peace of mind though

ppeat sort of to the sausage plait. It was really nice and something we will eat again, but we're yet to decide what to have for our Christmas meal. I think I want some sort of stuffed squash but that won't work for the others, so I think a family meeting is in order to decide what they have alongside my stuffed squash 😂

That sounds like a great trial to participate in IJumped. I'm sure that would give me peace of mind too

Yesterday was
B: cinnamon and raisin bagel thin, toasted with naturli and violife cream cheese. Satsuma
L: spiced aubergine and tomato bake with flaked almonds
D: black bean, sweet potato and chipotle stew with dumplings
S: alpro cherry yogurt, dates, kimchi

And I remembered that on Sunday I also had a slice of toast with peanut butter and kimchi. DH thought it was appalling but it was lush

Tomoto And pea risotto

B: banana oat smoothie
L: chickpea and spinach curry
D: sundries tomato and spinach pasta

PartTime You may have made one before successfully; I sort of tried at one Halloween party making a squash soup INSIDE a squash ! It's a bit tricky because the outside squash gets cold, (it has to be undercooked to stop it falling to pieces, like mine did!! ). On Xmas Day it might be too much because it won't keep well. Oh and it takes up a lot of room in the oven, which is fine if you're not doing a bird for the non vegans, I suppose you could make and freeze the filling beforehand.

B. Leftover smoothie
L. Pea\carrot soup with soaked toast
SnS. Porridge with almond milk and xmas spices. Almond milk chicory cappucino.

Ref. Xmas pudding, I'm going to make a gf\vegan pudding. With almond\or soya milk HM custard. Using ground walnuts and almonds and HM mincemeat!

Homemade mincemeat sounds lovely

B 40g porridge
L Hm tomato and lentil soup
D happy pear hm leek and potato pie
Snack family pack popcorn, used to love this and have it daily have gone off it.
Has anyone done any of the happy pear cookery courses, they ate reduced just now and fancy the vegan one x

B: rice cake
L: avocado, tofu, lettuce, cucumber, lemon juice, chilli flakes and everything but the bagel seasoning
S: cocoa covered cocoa beans (!!), slice of toast and marmite
D: green beans, Dahl, chickpeas roasted in fatal masala, then some truffle Marcona almonds with a glass of wine

It couldn't be easier Coco I use sultanas, chopped dried apricots,lemon rind etc. just the fruits and some chopped almonds, the ingredients that we like. I soak it in grape juice, use a little olive oil and put in it very low oven for a few hours. It needs that because I don't use alk. it preserves it well.

B. Half a grapefruit, soaked linseeds\almonds\pears\ smoothie
L. Carrot\spinach soup with soaked toast
Sn\S. Mushroom soup with pumpernickel.

@ppeatfruit I think I'll give that a try my husband likes those flavours. Going to try and make him a vegan panforte choc, almonds and cherries I think.

L: sausage and bean stew with dumplings. Pear
D: Dahl, roasted veg, rice, broccoli, naan and spicy mango chutney

I haven't done a happy pear course coco. Would love to hear what you think if you do one
Am thinking biscoff cheesecake for Christmas Day, and then possibly some sort of steamed pudding for Boxing Day. And I might make a small trifle (it will only be eaten by me and DD17 but I really want some...

Oh I love trifle too PartTime It reminds me of dm's Delia Smith's one. (she always made one at Xmas) It's great that we can make one dairy free now!! She also made her chocolate roulade which might be ok with aquafaba.

B. Leftover smoothie
L. HM Lettuce soup with spelt toast

Just a heads up that the large Soreen Malt Loaf and McVities Digestives (not choc) are now Vegan

B. Smoothie leftover.
L. Beetroot soup, tofu yoghurt\ nooch and pumpernickel
S. sn. Mushroom soup, very nice because I added soaked dried ceps to it before blending.

@Kintsugi16 that’s brilliant!!

Breakfast: Smoothie made with a banana, berries, kale, peanut butter, vanilla protein powder, chia seeds, oats and water (ran out of plant milk )

Lunch: Scrambled tofu with spinach on toast

Dinner: Macaroni cheeze made with lots of nooch soya milk (finally got some! ), sweet potato chips, broccoli and a shit ton of vegan mayo and spicy peri sauce. Had an apple for 'pudding'.

Just realised today was very similar to the last what I ate today I posted .
