Poutine and nuggets garlic bread stack for today's #FilthyFriday 🍞🧀🍟 My dad always said to me "Jen, don't play with your food". WELL WELL WELL LOOK AT ME NOW, DAD 😛😛😛

Midweek chick*n noodles for your viewing pleasure 🍜 Using Vivera "chicken" pieces in a sticky soy/maple sauce, julienne carrots 🥕 green peppers and shredded cabbage. Things have been a little hectic around here lately with me starting a new job 🥳 and Orren having settling in days at nursery 😭 so my spare time on insta is dwindling 😅 Usual service shall resume in a week or two... because I miss scrolling through all your bloody fit food creations 🤤🤤🤤

Sausage and lentil stew with roasties and tenderstem broccoli 🥦🥔 Been away in Norwich/Cromer for the past few days hence the radio silence 📻 Taking a lockdown toddler to meet friends and family wasn't half stressful 🤪 But we did have a great time and I didn't eat any hot chips while there 😲🍟 Back on the bandwagon this week 😅 Happy Monday lovelies 😚

Made a selection of pastries this morning 😇 Tomato, Nush cream cheese, onion and hemp seeds for Orren's upcoming lunches 🍅 Violife cheese slices and Heinz baked beans for my partner 🧀 and finally some strawberry and Doisy & Dam chocolate drops mini pastries for me 🍓🍫 Hope you've all had brilliant Bank Holiday weekends, guys 🥳 Living for this weather 🌞

Homemade no-chicken & lentil pie with veggies 🐔 Using THIS Isn't "chicken", Oatly cream, green lentils, shallots and some herbs in the pie filling 🍃 with a JusRol shortcrust pastry topping 🥧 Added some gravy afterwards, of course 😋 Wanna make some more pies as I barely ever make any from scratch - what should I make next? 🤔 Ideas please! 💡

Asparagus, cream cheese and bae-con tart 😋 Using JusRol pastry (always), Nush cream cheese 🧀 and THIS Isn't bacon 🥓 Quick and easy little tart for what's supposed to be springtime 😒 ☔

Chick'n Katsu Curry burger for ye olde #FilthyFriday today 🥳 With a VFC spicy chicken fillet 🍗 Yutaka katsu sauce 🍛 shredded cabbage, carrot and cucumber drenched in Hellmans vegan mayo (plus more on the burg), all wrapped up in a Roberts soft, floury bun 🍔 Messy AF but also delicious AF 🤌 Have a mega awesome weekend you guys 🤗

Little Greek platter for dinner 🇬🇷 With stuffed vine leaves 🍃 and gigantes beans (both by My Greek Kitchen), shwarma strips by Vivera, hummus, homemade tzatziki, pita bread and a little Greek salad 🥗made with Green Vie Greek style (feta) cheese 🧀, cherry toms 🍅 cucumber, black olives 🫒 and red onion. Had my first jab today and I didn't get a sticker - MIFFED! Let the AstraZeneca side effects commence... 😭😖😫🤒

No-egg quiche 🥚 Made with Crackd egg replacer - and believe the hype it's actually quite good 👍 Other half was a big fan of it in eggy-bread 🍳😅 But anyway, for this I made it into a quiche with Green Vie Greek Style (feta) cheese 🧀🇬🇷 pepeprs 🌶 red onion 🧅 cherry toms 🍅 and asparagus. Who needs foccacia art when you can do no-egg quiche art? 🎨

Seitan chick'n burger with a splodge of coleslaw for #FilthyFriday 🍔 Swipe for a close up of the crispy seitan patty ⬅️🤤 Made the seitan the usual way, and added too many spices to remember in the coating 🤔 Coleslaw from the M&S Plant Kitchen range 🥗 some melted Violife 🧀 pickles 🥒 red onion 🧅 and more mayo just cos 🤷‍♀️ Have a filthy weekend everyone 👊

Sausage and white bean casserole 🥘🍅 pearl couscous and roasted cabbage 🍃 Sausages by Richmond (I barely buy anything else now - they're good for/in everything 👌) and couscous by Artisan Grains. An easy dinner with basic ingredients and plenty of protein 💪

Quorn vegan scampi 🍤 with sheet pan roast veggies 🫑🧅🍃 and couscous salad with whatever's in the fridge (red cabbage, red onion, cucumber 🥒sundried toms 🍅 dried apricots, walnuts, and a little dressing 🥗). I was disgusting and squirted some ketchup on the scampi after this shot was taken 😋 Hope you lot all had a great Monday 👍

Waffle fries bagel burger to bless the grid on this holy day, #FilthyFriday 😇 Toasted thin bagel (when you don't wanna commit to a bread-y burger bun 🍔) 🥯, Tommy K 🍅 Linda McCartney 1/4 pounder burger patty (the OG 🤌🤌🤌), melted Violife Epic Mature 🧀 fresh lettuce 🥬 gherkins 🥒 red onion 🧅 and waffle fries to round it all off 🧇🍟 You want some or what? 😋 Have a bloody awesome weekend, lovely people in my phone 😚😁

Nothing much really has changed here... 🤷‍♀️ expect some filth blessing your scrolling in a couple days time 😉

Another year around the sun 🌞🎂 It was my birthday today, and as with most people's birthdays over the past 9 months, it was a pretty quiet affair. The day was spent with Orren 🧑🏼 (same as any other day), I ate lots of great food 🍟🍔🍫🍬 (same as any other day) and watched some junk on YouTube 🖥 (same as... yada yada). It's been a brilliant day to be fair 😅 Swipe for a close up of the Biscoff cheesecake I made earlier - a little "rustic" as entertaining a 15 month old and delicate cake decorating don't really mix 🤪

Lockdown 3 banana bread 😒🍌🍰 Got a little bored of the usual banana bread recipe so I tried a new, bubba-friendly one 🙎‍♂️ No sugar, oil or salt 🍬🧂 plus added homemade raspberry jam with chia seeds 💖 Came out really well! Used dates instead of sugar, plenty of bananas and some crushed almonds. Will be making again, and bubba loves it ❤

Brunch is served 👩‍🍳 Richmond sausages (bloody love these 👌) avocado on toast 🥑 buttered toast 🍞 for the Heinz beanz with nooch 🧀 and a little fried cabbage, leek and Miami Burger bacon and Oatly cream combo 🥓 (which was lush 🤤). Have a fab Saturday you guys 😊

Bacon, cream cheese, Vegemite, avocado and hash brown bagel 🥯 For you fabulous new followers (hiyaaaaaa 👋) I do this thing called #FilthyFriday where I post stuff on a Friday that's slightly more naughty than my usual eatings 🐷 Still vegan, just a bit filth. And more often than not, carb-heavy 🥔🍞 So here we have a thin Warburton toasted bagel 🥯 with crispy Miami Burger bacon 🥓 crunchy Aviko hash brown bites 🥔 Nush cream cheese 🧀 a smashed avo 🥑 and every Aussie's fave - Vegemite 🦘 Hope everyone is surviving out there 🤗

Made some sushi 🍣 The final recipe for @theveganchefschool course was pretty fun to make (and as always, delicious). No rice, no fish, no seaweed 😯 I'd tell you how to make it but it would take too long - you should just sign up for the vegan chef course and learn how to make it yourself 👩‍🍳😂 So glad to have finished the recipe part of the course, but the big final assessment I am still yet to complete. Must get my arse into gear 🤨
