These 4 Recipes = My Weekend Mood

Published 10 days ago • 1 min read

Hi there, Reader

It's my birthday tomorrow, and it's a big one (the big 5-0 to be exact😳). I know age is just a number, but this one is hitting hard.

I'm going out for a special meal tomorrow night (I'm not a party person), but I will be cooking up some of my favourite recipes to treat myself tonight and over the rest of the weekend, and thought it might be fun to share what I'm making.

Please, nobody suggest that Mr A Virtual Vegan does the cooking. I don't want this birthday to be my last, and I enjoy it anyway. He'll get to do the clearing up once I've made all the mess! 🤭

My fave treat myself breakfast

I'm definitely a French toast over pancakes kinda person, and this recipe is pretty epic. It will be my breakfast tomorrow!

One of my fave dinners

A large pot filled with creamy, orange-colored chickpea curry with visible green herbs and sun-dried tomatoes. A wooden spoon rests inside the pot, suggesting the dish is freshly prepared. Next to the pot is a bowl containing mashed potatoes seasoned with black pepper. The scene is set on a wooden surface with a beige napkin in view. — 📌 PIN FOR LATER

These Marry Me Chickpeas with some ultra-creamy, buttery, herby mashed potatoes and a crispy acidically dressed salad to cut through the richness, and I'll be a very happy girl!

Always garlic bread on the side!

A must for mopping up the creamy sauce! I adore garlic bread!

GET THE RECIPE

My fave dessert 🤤

This Biscoff cheesecake is quite simply divine and SO EASY with no cooking! (Yes, Biscoff spread and Lotus Biscoff cookies are vegan!) I've made it for every single holiday since I developed it. It's such a family favourite recipe!

NEW - Fall-Inspired Granola 🍂

Hi there, Reader My 2nd new recipe this week. Who even am I? I'll credit my back (which is feeling much better at long last) for the sudden burst of recipe inspiration and desire to get my proper camera out at long last. Today, I am bringing to the table my new crunchy, ultra-clumpy Pumpkin Seed Granola. It tastes and smells like fall, and I've been loving it with some dairy-free yogurt and banana for breakfast. It's great for snacking straight from the jar too, and is naturally nut-free, so...
