Vegtember: Broccoli Ricotta Risotto & London Trip

Had a meeting at CWU HQ which meant a couple of days away from home in the big smog. I wondered if this might represent a bit of a challenge. Easy to make sure your pantry is stocked to the gills with lovely veggie food at home. But when “out and about” The worry is always going to be being caught short and ending up eating a pork pie or something.

I was able to hold the feral carnivore in me back thankfully, and I recorded a Video blog about my

Vegtember: Lebanese Meze Platter

So not done a Vegtember blog for a couple of days, was busy playing Mafia 2 on Sunday, and I was knackered after work yesterday. So below are the recipes from my vegetarian meze platter on Sunday. Unfortunately I didn’t take any pictures as was a little big rushed so apologies for that.

All these dishes were very nice, but it didn’t quite work as a main meal; I have to confess I was busy thinking about how much better it all would have been with a nice Lamb Kofte kebab!

Vegtember: Using local Greengrocers

Saturday was always going to be tricky for me. It is my normal “bacon buttie” day. I have already said I am a massive carnivore and bacon is probably the foodstuff I love more than anything else in the world. So my first Saturday of Vegtember was one in which I intended to keep myself very busy, and my mind firmly off the topic of various pig related products.

My new toy!

Lots of the vegetarian recipes that people have sent me call for the use of a Griddle pan, a

Vegtember Day Two: Spinach and Mushroom Curry

Day two of Vegtember and I am jonesing for a curry. Now I think it is fair to say that it is very much a western thing that all curries have to contain meat. Mostly on the subcontinent the food will be predominantly vegetarian. I love curry, and I think that cooking vegetarian ones this month will probably improve my skill as I will be less likely to rely on the meat and think more about the flavour.

This recipe is another of my kid brothers (thanks Dan!) slightly adapted to

Vegtember Day One: Peanut and Tomato Pasta

So, the first day of Vegtember. And I frankly woke up pretty excited about the whole thing, I’d already made my vegetarian lunch for today last night. I had humus, cherry tomato, cucumber, red onion and romaine lettuce sandwiches. Not particularly adventurous but very nice and a good way to ease myself into Vegtember.

Having had a frankly busy day I wanted something pretty easy for dinner. So I decided to plunk for a traditional old family recipe. Pasta with peanuts and tomato sauce but using my little brothers twist of
