Pecan and Mushroom Wellington

Mushroom Wellington

Another Christmas in July Recipe!! This Pecan and Mushroom Wellington is one of my absolute favourite Christmas recipes. It’s actually a great recipe any time of the year. In summer it’s great served with a salad and in winter with roast vegetables. It’s incredibly tasty and super easy to make! I used a mixture of swiss brown mushrooms and white mushrooms for this recipe. But you could use all white mushrooms if that’s what you have. I found that the swiss…

King Oyster Mushroom Tacos

King Oyster Mushroom Tacos

I’ve just learnt about shredding king oyster mushrooms and it looks very much like chicken! I thought I’d put a different spin on it and make it into a kind of ‘pork’ based taco. They turned out amazing! I’m now officially totally obsessed with king oyster mushrooms (as opposed to it only being a mild obsession previously!) I put the mushroom mixture in tacos, but you could use it for burgers, in a quesadilla, in a wrap, or just with…

Crumbed Oyster Mushroom Wraps

These Crumbed Oyster Mushroom Wraps have become a regular recipe in our house! I made them for my brother a few weeks back and he loved them too! This recipe is perfect for lunch or casual dinner. The taste and texture of these really are amazing! Once crumbed the oyster mushrooms have almost the texture of chicken, but waaaaay better (and obviously cruelty free!) which might seem weird, but it’s really good! This is a perfect balance of crispy and fried…

Potato and Eggplant Bake

This Potato and Eggplant Bake will definitely be a winner for your Christmas in July lunch or dinner! A Christmas feast just wouldn’t be complete without a potato bake! I decided to change it up a bit with this one and add some eggplant and basil leaves to it. As shown in the picture below, I have layered basil leaves throughout this bake, but thyme would also work extremely well. I’ve used a whole can of coconut cream in this recipe!…

Chickpea, Pumpkin and Dill Burgers

Chickpea, Pumpkin and Dill Burgers

It was high time I made some homemade burgers. We still had some pumpkin in the garden, and I found some dill had sprouted up the other day too. My mind immediately thought: BURGERS! So, I came up with these Chickpea, Pumpkin and Dill burgers. If you don’t like dill (it can be quite an acquired taste), another herb would work just as well. Try substituting with thyme, coriander, basil or even parsley. If you’re really hungry… honestly, you can’t go…

Pesto Peanut Crusted Pumpkin Wedges

Pumpkin crusted anything is a bit fancy, don’t you think? And Christmas is the perfect time to bring out the fancy recipes – even if this one is quite simple (but no-one needs to know that, right!?) I made this one with kent pumpkin, but butternut would work pretty well too, or even sweet potato or potato. I used Sacla red pesto for this recipe, but green pesto would work just as well. Some pestos are not vegan, so make…
