My veg box provides me with all the lovely greens, but also all the comforting root veg as well, because sometimes you just want the casserole dish equivalent of a hug. And this is kinda that. Although this takes a long time to bake, it is super easy and makes the most out of some…

parsnip potato soup
This week I had some really lovely parsnips in my veg box so I decided to make some soup. This nice creamy soup is an easy one that comes together with 2 big parsnips chopped, a big potato chopped, half an chopped onion and some olive oil, salt and pepper in a big pan in…

If you have mushrooms and onions in your veg box this week and feel like you might want a bit of booze in your soup, this might be the soup for you! You need an onion, garlic of some form (I used garlic powder), salt, pepper, a bunch of mushrooms, about 500ml of stock, booze,…
rhubarb compote
Here is something super easy if you have rhubarb! Rhubarb compote. It is kinda like jam, except it isn’t really jam and you make it in the oven with no effort. It is yummy on crumpets (seen here), also on yogurt. This version is rose, hibiscus, rhubarb compote. Why so fancy? Okay, I am a…

My veg box had all the lovely greens with week, so I’ve have been spoiled with lush leafy greens on everything. I decided to make easy mac and cheese (a béchamel sauce with added cheese and toss that with noodles) and top my noodles with some sautéed garlicky spinach. So yummy. Béchamel sauce is pretty…
tofu and greens on a baguette
I had some fabulous pakchoi/bokchoy in my veg box, and it turns out that it is super great in a sandwich! If you sauté it with a little soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and peanut oil and some tofu (I had some deep fried tofu they sell at the Asian grocery near me), it is amazing!…
lazy noodles with greens
My veg box this week had all the glorious greens! How lucky am I?!? So I made a quick and seriously yummy dinner of noodles, pakchoi/bokchoy, and vegan mince. Here’s how! In a big pan add a slosh of oil. When hot add some garlic and ginger paste (or chopped garlic and ginger, or add…
