Creamy Red Lentil Daal

April 18, 2019 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

A friend invited me over for lunch, and while our babies crawled happily around the floor, we indulged in this amazing dish she made us. She got the recipe from Running On Real Food and it was gorgeous. I tweaked it slightly, using the base ingredients from my usual daals (check out my mung daal)…

Curried Chickpeas

Let’s be honest, it can be a bore always trying to come up with new vegetarian meal options, so here I am making it easier for you 🙂 This was super easy to throw together, absolutely deliciously comforting and full of nutrients. I brought it with to a dinner party where all the other guests…

Best, Easiest Vegan Chilli (and tips on staying nourished through the winter)

January 16, 2018 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

It’s raining. It’s grey. It’s January in London. At this time of year it’s so important to look after ourselves, physically and emotionally, because the shorter days and colder climate really do alter our physical wellbeing and emotional state. There is a reason that some animals hibernate during these months – protecting themselves from the…

Vegan No-Fry Chickpea & Sweetcorn Fritters

September 13, 2017 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

And so the battle to come up with new and exciting things for Braxton to eat every day continues… Well, not just for Brax but for us too, because he pretty much eats what we eat now (depending on what mood he’s in, and food is always a volatile subject when it comes to him!)….

Beetroot Mash

November 29, 2016 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

How gorgeous and bright does this look for a dull winter’s day? I just love the colours of nature and colours are a great way to entice children to eat vegetables. Beetroots are full of nutrients and are such an important vegetable. Beetroots are an excellent source of folte so a great food to eat…

Sweet Potato & Zucchini Noodles with Creamy Cashew Sauce

October 5, 2016 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

This is a recipe from the Veggie Steady Cook cookbook we had made from all our recipes from the day, so I can’t take credit for it as it’s not my recipe – but I made it the other day and swapped some of the ingredients to make it dairy free and it was so…

Vegetarian Stuffed Peppers

September 7, 2016 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

Look at my wrinkly peppers! 🙂  I recently came back from Spain and they seem to ‘stuff’ a lot of food there so it inspired me to do stuffed peppers. My mum always made them for us growing up so not sure why I don’t do them more often – probably because she made them…

Mushroom & Spinach Frittata

May 12, 2016 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

Another easy dinner choice, a variation on my last frittata. You can pretty much add anything you want to it – whatever is in the fridge and needs to be used. It’s one of those ‘Thursday night meals’! Ingredients 6 organic free-range eggs 1 tsp English mustard 2 potatoes, peeled and sliced thinly Half a…
