"One of the best pastas I've made since going vegan"


​
Hi there, Reader

Raise your hand if you’re in full-on cozy carb mode right now. 🙋‍♀️

Same. So let’s lean right into it with my Creamy Vegan Pumpkin Pasta!

It’s garlicky, it’s pumpkin-y, it’s lusciously rich, and it’s made all in one pot in about 20 minutes. I’m obsessed, and judging by the comments, I’m not the only one! I've included some below so you don't have to just take my word for it.

Here’s the magic part: you don’t cook the pasta first. Just throw the DRIED pasta straight into the sauce and let it simmer. It soaks up all that flavour, makes the sauce extra creamy, and saves you a pot to wash. Easy dinner win! 🙌

Here's what some of you have had to say about it:

"This is soooo delicious and comforting, and we devoured it!!" - Claire.

"I love, love, love this recipe! Even my non-vegan, non-pumpkin-fan son thought it was yummy!" - Barbara.

"One of the best pastas I've made since going vegan. Love it!" - Ashleigh.

Hi there, Reader November is when the cozy vibes really kick in, isn't it? Short days, chilly, often rainy evenings, lots of soup (my favourite food group) and the beginnings of holiday menu planning! I've rounded up 31 vegan recipes to make this month, one for every day, plus a bonus one! (because I can't count 🤭) From hearty soups and a showstopping Thanksgiving roast with all the trimmings, to fresh cranberry treats and make-ahead Christmas classics, your whole month of cozy cooking is...

Hi there, Reader One of my favourite things about this time of year is watching everyone’s cooking habits start to change.

Hi there, Reader Now that the evenings are getting dark and chilly, I want to share an old favourite with you. My Lentil Shepherd’s Pie recipe has been on my website for over a decade, and it’s still one of the most-made recipes. It has a 4.9-star rating, hundreds of comments, and every year at about this time, it climbs back to the top of the most-visited list. Why it’s earned its place on so many dinner tables: Budget-friendly: it’s made from simple, cheap ingredients. Healthy and filling:...
