Good things

I said a while back that I was finally going to shift my longstanding menu planning game to include a veganish week (it's now veganish week then veggie, then poultry/fish, followed by a week of anything goes). I'm not wild about the rhetoric of veganity, but undeniably plant-based eating has upsides, and I had found my veggie week cooking getting

They all sound good - pity S2C doesn't like tomatoes, mushrooms, peas or pancakes....

I had peppers stuffed with curried vegetables for a meal out last night - it was really good, and interesting for me as I usually would have added rice to the stuffing, but it worked well enough without.

Goodness, you do have a lot to work around. (Though I can't really eat peppers, and am just as awkward in my own ways.)

Yum! I’ve just bought Jamie’s veg book and there’s some nice recipes in there for us. We find we are rarely eating meat from week to week although we do eat oily fish twice a week if we can.

There are lots of things I love to cook which are meaty, but it's been very good to enforce this kind of wider range. Good when I cook for my parents, too - they increasingly don't want heavy meals, but interesting veg is always welcome.

It's funny, I get so frustrated with the Ottolenghi recipes in The Guardian - they're all so damn complicated and call for such esoteric ingredients. This one sounds simple and delicious. I'll definitely give it a go.

Heh, I rather enjoy him. But then I do have an enormous spice cabinet (heap, really), so it's fun to use some of the less common ones. That said, this comes from his book Simple, which is a bit more manageable for the ingredients and faffing! I really loved it.

That sounds fascinating.

I love a game with menus. Always fun!
