Eggless Mushroom and Greens Frittatas
These frittatas are made from the very versatile pulse, the chickpea. Chickpea flour is essentially dried, ground chickpeas—fancy that?
Use up whatever veg you have in your fridge and serve with a pesto or tomato-based dip. They can be made in advance and will keep in the fridge for about 5 days and they also freeze well.
Iced Carrot Cake
A fool proof carrot cake recipe that has the flexibility to use up wonky carrots and dried fruit and nuts available in your store cupboard.
Funfetti Tray Bake
Some kids love school, some don’t. But we haven’t met one yet that doesn’t love school sprinkle cake. Try our simple plant based version at home for all of the flavour, but less of the GHGs from animal products.

Delicious spicy ginger biscuits, why buy them when you can make them better yourself?
Tom’s Chocolate Truffles
These simple chocolate truffles are a great way to save and transform aged chocolate that has become discoloured, into a truly remarkable sweet treat. It is the simplest, yet tastiest truffle, made with just three ingredients, chocolate, salt and water.
Designed to bring out and maximise the flavour of the chocolate so that you can taste its true, intense flavour, that is individual to each and every chocolate bar.
Leek and smoked cheese pithivier
There's no need to pithi(vier) the veg with this Leek and Smoked Cheese Pithivier recipe. Pithivier is a traditional circular puff pastry pie with a curved pattern cut into the pastry. If you want to, add leftover chopped up turkey or ham to the leek mixture. The pie can be made in advance up to the final baking stage and kept in the fridge. It would make a good vegetarian Christmas main course.
