Two Vegetarian Picnics…. one with Fairy Bread!
So we’re 12 days into our Vegetarian Challenge and we have been doing really well. Truthfully, I don’t crave or miss meat like I thought I would. We had a lovely dinner with friends on Friday night, it was a veritable feast! (It was also one of the only non-alcohol, non-meat dinner parties I’ve ever…

It’s fast, easy and looks pretty tasty! A great vegetarian weeknight meal. I adapted the recipe from BBC Good Food but added emmenthal and tasty cheese to give it a bit more flavour than the original recipe called for…. and also because I happened to have extra cheese leftover from the eggplant au gratin last night!…

Day 18- this is hardly a challenge
More than half of the way through No red meat December and quite frankly I’m a bit bored. This is not challenging. This is not that hard. I don’t feel like I’m denying myself anything and really I’m not. Giving up red meat for 30 days is a lot easier than I thought it would…

If you ever find yourself in Gundaroo….
