Butter Bean and Aubergine Bake is hearty and warming – not quite a casserole or stew as it can be sliced for serving. This gluten-free, vegan recipe has three fairly straightforward steps: vegetables, tomato mixture, white sauce. Once it is in the oven you can move on to other things while it cooks. Super hearty […]

Mushroom Risotto with Grilled Mushrooms and Tarragon
Mushroom Risotto with Grilled Mushrooms and Tarragon is the ultimate gluten-free, vegan comfort food. Tasting of earthy, warm flavours, fresh with the slight aniseed tang of tarragon and a wonderful silky texture but with a bite. I love this dish. It makes the world alright again.

Gluten-free, vegan Baked Mushrooms With Crispy Sage is worth the small extra effort – it is a real treat. […]
