One of the things I always pick up when I shop at Trader Joe’s is their boxed roasted red pepper and tomato soup. You may have also seen the Pacifica brand at your grocery store. Don’t get me wrong, I love the convenience of dumping the contents of the carton into a pot to heat up and whipping up a quick grilled cheese for dinner to go with, but with piles of tomatoes to use from my garden, I wanted to figure out how to make a homemade version....

But first, I need to tell you a bit about the sauce. Are you listening? This is a very serious matter. Despite the title of this post, I’m really writing today about the avocado, lemon, and garlic aioli: my new favorite sauce (inspired by a vegan version at oh she glows). It’s so healthy! It’s so tasty! It’s so easy to make! It’s literally perfect. Make no mistake- the salmon is absolutely delicious, and I’ll explain how to get a perfectly seared salmon filet (which is extremely easy to do), but THE SAUCE....

I’ve discovered my new FAVORITE way to make potato salad! This Skillet Potato Salad with Bacon and Arugula is served warm with a sweet and tangy vinegar-based dressing. It’s similar to German potato salad, Paleo and gluten-free, and the perfect side dish all year round. And like most of my favorite foods tend to be, it’s made extra delicious from cooking in a cast-iron skillet. I’ve been in a bit of a creative slump this week, which is difficult when your job depends on being creative....

Happy New Year everyone, I hope that 2024 started off on the right foot. I am going through the usual (for me) change in eating habits as the Christmas period, with all the sweet recipes I typically share on here, wreaks a bit of a havoc on me personally. I love baking and coming up with dessert recipes but I am not superhuman so I typically enjoy some (not all) fruit of my labour a bit too much....

Hope your week is going well, guys! Mine is a bit frantic as I am preparing to go away for Xmas so I have plenty of work to do, such is a nature of running a blog – you always work twice as hard before you can take any time off, although that’s true of most jobs, I guess. Despite a heavy workload, we did take yesterday off to go for a walk around Cheddar Gorge as stress was getting the best of me and Duncan had a day of leave he needed to take before Xmas, so we decided that a bit of walking in nature might be a good call....

I am nearing the end of my stay in Krakow. I’ve completed a monumental amount of dental treatment whilst here (so it wasn’t all fun) and I am glad for it to be over and to be going back home. Having said that it was really nice to see my parents, to see the city covered in snow and to have a break from cooking (courtesy of my lovely mum and a few nearby eateries offering good vegan food)....

Happy weekend everyone. Is it just me that got completely caught out by the fact that Valentines Day is just over a week from now? I am not someone who cares about it much, to be honest, but as a recipe developer that’s a major slip up. I blame the pandemic and the fact that all the days merge into one really looooong day when you spend too much time in the same routine and the same surroundings without any meaningful break....

The temperature has dropped a lot in the last couple of days so I felt that a bowl of creamy vegan mushroom risotto topped with garlicky mushrooms may be what the doctor ordered. Coupled with a good glass of wine, a pair of warm socks (my circulation isn’t in the job of keeping my extremities warm apparently! 😉 ), a cat on my lap and a good Netflix show this could easily be my Saturday evening sorted....

Nasi goreng simply means ‘fried rice’ and despite its unassuming name, it is a cracking dish – filling and immensely satisfying! I have a particularly soft spot for it as it reminds me of one of my favourite holidays – in Bali – where we spent an entire month living off this stuff. This was years before we went vegan, which was somewhat lucky as despite nasi goreng being fairly easily veganised, traditional versions almost always feature fried eggs and the ubiquitous fish sauce....

Strangely, today’s recipe for vegan panna cotta is the very first recipe I did for this blog. It was almost a year ago when the idea for the Lazy Cat Kitchen was born and, as it was end of summer, the first dish I shot was a portion of wobbly panna cotta with a succulent fig relish. It took a few months to get the website ready and to do the initial recipes and by the time we were ready to launch (at the end of January this year) this recipe became a bit less relevant, so I decided to wait with it until this summer....

Yesterday was a truly miserable day around these parts. Both me and Tina sat at home all day long watching it rain and wishing it had stopped. Me, because I stupidly procrastinated my running when I woke up – I am not a morning person, you see – I ignored the fact that the weather forecast made it clear that unless I get my ass in gear first thing, there is no chance for running in anything other than torrential rain with an occasional ‘hail massage’ thrown in!...

I’ve managed to contain my sweet tooth for a while and steer clear of making sweet recipes, but I cracked once I saw beautiful raspberries at my green grocers. All I could think of was is how good they’d taste surrounded by sweet almond frangipane! I’ve been wanting to make this twist on a bakewell tart for a while, but I wasn’t able to get raspberries in Greece, so I’ve been awaiting raspberry season rather eagerly this year....

Happy Wednesday guys! How are you all doing? I’m still buried in my Photoshop files most of the time, but the design is coming along nicely, so it’s all good. From other highlights, this past weekend we’ve managed to move our living room redecoration one step further as after almost 6 months of waiting, our window shutters have finally arrived. We were both a bit apprehensive as we chose the self installation (and measurement) route and if you don’t measure windows for a living, there is always a risk that you’ve measured something wrong and the shutters won’t fit....

I was so excited when Lisa Leake sent me a sneak preview of her new cookbook in exchange for a recipe and cookbook review post. 100 Days of Real Food is the blog that started it all for me. It chronicles Lisa and her family’s mission to eat only “real” food for (you guessed it) 100 days, and has developed into one of the most popular, reliable, and informational real food resources ever....
