I came across this recipe 18 years ago (June 1997) in the now discontinued Vegetarian Good Food Magazine. It is a stunningly simple and excellent recipe for courgette soup and gets a lot of flavour from using the correct "soft cheese with garlic and herbs". Obviously, nowadays I have to modify...

And I am back hopefully to make some more meaningful contributions. What better way to start than with some comfort food of sorts. I cannot function without onions and wanted to find something that would be practical for me. Here goes. Yield: 1 12-inch pizza Ingredients 1 lb pizza dough...

I came across this recipe whilst looking for my Persian bean soup recipe from my Veggistan book which sadly it's in a shipping container being shipped from the UK to Australia. I had thought it would have been an ideal recipe for the current CookingBites recipe challenge but... instead I found...

The new ingredient for theThe CookingBites Recipe Challenge is tomatoes. Coincidentally I had just made this tart which features tomatoes as a star ingredient and was about to post itI haven't put quantities for the filling. You can judge this easily by eye. Just be generous and fill the pastry...

Wholewheat fusilli with roasted vegetables I found this dish at a local gastlypub a few years ago. It was one of the only things on the menu that didn't scream "frozen then microwaved" and I liked it so much it has become a staple dish at home. It's incredibly quick and simple, very healthy...

So I always have chicken in my freezer and sometimes will make cuts of my own chicken breast for quick and easy meals. I thought I'd have a look at Pinterest for some ideas and immediately this recipe pops up. I love garlic and once I saw garlic and chicken I thought this is something I could...

Another savoury melon recipe. I always forget how delicious (and low calorie) hearts of palm are. Here, I can buy them easily in tins and they are brilliant in salad. Anyway, I found a tin on the cupboard and got inspired. Here is the result: Photographed today in natural light Ingredients...

This is a very simple, but delicious recipe. There's nothing special about it, but it makes a tasty everyday dish for the whole family. I think I don't let a week pass without making red lentils. (It's very frugal too;) ) Red Lentils Ingregients: 1 cup red lentils 2 peeled tomatoes 1 liter...

Well now that the next ingredient for the Cooking Bites Challenge has been announced, I will start the ball rolling with a recipe pertaining to stuffed sweet peppers or bell peppers as they are also called. Ingredients: 4 sweet peppers 1 stalk celery 3/4 pound cooked minced meat 2 tablespoons...

One of my favorite things to make with Portobello mushrooms is mini pizzas. You can add the topping of your choice. Mine are usually different every time depending what I have on hand at the time. They are low in carbs and very tasty. They are a great alternative to regular pizza dough...

How to use up all that cabbage and kale I bought for the The CookingBites Recipe Challenge? I'm being purposely pretentious with this recipe and enjoying every moment. This recipe requires minimal cooking. Its all about colour and careful cutting and assembly. Clockwise from the top: pickled...

So here is another recipe that calls for the parsnip, I am yet to find around here and it's vegetarian, so no one is left out. If ever I get to try this, I suspect I'll have to do some substituting but it's worth sharing I'd say. Vegetarian Preparation time:10 minutes to 15 minutes Cooking...
