I ended up making ...  Read the complete review

~~~~~~~~~~~ INTRODUCTION ~~~~~~~~~~~ Ful (pronounced "fool") means "fava bean" in Arabic, and is one of my favourite Levantine foods. Unusually for my meat-orientated palate, it's vegetarian (and vegan) as well. At its heart, it is a bean stew topped with fresh chopped vegetables and herbs. It is a popular ...  Read the complete review

With the intention of eating healthier I have recently got into GI foods and have found this vegetarian dish to be a tasty addition to a salad based meal, it has enough protein to have a meal without meat and provides extra goodness with the lentils and nuts. I did find them a little dry and they improved overnight in the fridge. I would also ...  Read the complete review

I know Vegetarians get alot of flack sometimes, but there is alot to be said for cutting out the carnivorous proteins once in a while, even if it isn't going to be a life long lifestyle change, or for animal welfare reasons, its worth it.

I do like my meat and so do most of the family, I am making an effort to cut down on red meat at the moment but I would never be able to give it up completely. About 18 years ago a doctor advised me to become vegetarian in an attempt to clear up a particularly bad eczema flare up, I did it for a while but as soon as my skin was right (or as right ...  Read the complete review

I think this is a really tasty, healthy recipe which has the added advantage of being ...  Read the complete review

This homemade soup is one of our ...  Read the complete review

My best friend is a vegetarian so I try to make her something special when she comes to visit but this is my favourite recipe to make her. Puff potato ...  Read the complete review

This is a healthy, low-fat veggie dish which I adapted from a recipe my mother in law gave me for sausage and bean casserole. It can, of course, be used with real meat sausages instead of veggie ones if you prefer but it won't then conform to the WW points guidance I have provided here (NB, I have worked these out as per their online e-sources but ...  Read the complete review

Squash, Spinach and Garlic Mushroom lasagne. I have to admit I use bechemal sauce from a jar - sorry but the stuff I make just doesn't taste the same.
