The Best Of March Is Here! πŸ’œ


Friends, hello.

It's that time again...Where is the year going? I hope it's been a good month for you!

Spring has well and truly sprung here, signified by my lovely nodding daffodils, and Charlie, who this past week has started his daily check of our fig trees for fruit, even though they have barely come out of dormancy. Who needs a groundhog when he's around? 🀭

Now let's take a look at some of March's highlights!

"Made this tonight for my meat-eating hubby and me.... and we both loved it! The tofu was perfect, the seasoning amazing! Don't know how you come up with the greatest recipes, but they are always winners! " - Pam on Ginger Tofu.

"I am always skeptical when it comes to non-dairy cheese holding its own with dairy. This recipe is amazing, love it Love it, love it. Thank you." - Gary on Vegan Feta.

"Incredible. I don't know how the combination of ingredients worked, but it sure did! I've never made cheesecake before and consider myself a baking noob, but it still turned out amazing. My friends (including non-vegans) really enjoyed it. I also appreciate that this recipe is much cheaper to make than those using vegan cream cheese." - Lucy on Vegan New York Cheesecake.

"I’ve been making seitan for many years, but after making your recipe, I will only ever make your master piece! Thanks a million!" - Fiona on Vegan Beef.
