🎄 Who's feeling festive yet?? Got a Christmas tree over the weekend and had lots of fun decorating it with some new ornaments - "VEGAN FOR THE BONERS" is definitely my fave 😉 🍆 (If you don't know what I'm referring to, watch The Game Changers on Netflix!) Now I just have to decide what to cook for Christmas... Last year was the seitan wellington by @avantgardevegan, which was super tasty - but if anyone has other ideas for a great Xmas main please lemme know! 🎅

Quick 'n' easy creamy Brussels sprout pasta! Christmas is coming and sprouts are at their peak... Aside from roast dinners there are so many ways to eat sprouts, but one of my favourite is to roast them and then stir them through a thick and creamy pasta sauce. This dish is so easy to make and tastes AMAZING. Just roast the sprouts with olive oil, garlic and chilli til crisp. While they're roasting make a white sauce (onions, garlic, Oatly cream, miso paste, nutritional yeast, peas, salt and pepper) and cook up some pasta. Mix the sprouts with the pasta and sauce, season and serve. Boom! A healthy, hearty and festive weekend lunch. What's your favourite way to eat sprouts? 🌱

Man I love a bánh mì! 🌱 When I was in Vietnam I had (at least) one a day, and in the two years since I've spent hours in the kitchen trying to recreate these crunchy-yet-soft, spicy-yet-fresh, heavenly baguettes. This one came pretty close to being as good as the ones I had in Hoi An... I'll get there eventually! 🥖

Today's bánh mì is filled with crispy tofu fried with garlic, chilli and five spice; pickled red onions, daikon and carrots; sliced cucumber; spring onions; sliced chillis; siricha mayo; and of course, the obligatory scattering of fresh coriander...aka "cilantro" to my American friends 😉

If anyone knows where to get a good vegan bánh mì in London, please lemme know 💚

🌱 One of my favourite plant-based weekend brunches! 🍅 🌯 Spicy italian @tofurkyuk sausages, roasted vine tomatoes, Mexican-style scrambled tofu with black beans, red peppers and spring onion, fresh wilted spinach, and soft tortillas - with a dollop of basil mayo. Packed with protein and vitamins, it's quick and easy, and most importantly, delicious! What's your favourite vegan weekend brunch? 💚

I'm so excited to share the cover for my upcoming book YES VE-GAN! Published on Dec 26th by @octopus_books_ it's available to pre-order NOW! (link in bio). This book is for everyone ; whether you're interested in doing Veganuary and want some motivation, whether you're already a dedicated vegan, or whether you're just curious to see what this whole vegan thing is all about. 🌎
The rise of veganism is unstoppable, and YES VE-GAN! breaks down why the fastest growing movement the world has ever seen will continue to snowball. Veganism isn't a fad. It's not a trend. It's not a way to virtue signal or annoy people. It's just about living more kindly and more sustainably. Choosing never to intentionally harm animals. Choosing to evolve and move with the times. Veganism isn't the future anymore. It's now. Yes Ve-gan!! 💚

🌱 🍔 And now I present perhaps my favourite vegan burger of all time...the 'Notorious Sumo' burger from @veganjunkfoodbar. Featuring a tender beef-style patty, a crispy chicken-style burger, melted vegan cheese, lettuce, tomato, red, spring & fried onion mix, pickles, jalapeños and original VJFB sauce. It was outrageously good... So good that I had to have a few of them while in Amsterdam 🤷🏻‍♀️ Back to healthy eating and training now but still dreaming of this bad boy... What's your favourite plant-based burger? Cos I'll be on it! 🍔

🇳🇱 Another one of my favourite places to eat in Amsterdam was @veganjunkfoodbar 🌭 As the name suggests, it's not the place to go if you wanna be healthy... but MAN it is good! This is the plant-based shawarma on a green bun with lettuce, tomato, red, spring & fried onion mix, pomegranate, jalapeños, and purple garlic sauce. I had a burger a day for five days straight while in Amsterdam, and this place is one of the reasons why. Coming next, their double 'Sumo' burger which might be my favourite ever vegan burger... 🍔 (I feel the need to point out I'm eating healthily again now I'm back home!)
