vegan

Every recipe on my site is vegan, so if you’re 100% plant-based, you’re in the right place.

Here’s a great starting point for a huge variety of recipes. Some of my favourites are lemon orzo with chickpeas, hearty mushroom bolognese, creamy white bean soup with kale. Or, try this peanut butter vanilla shake, and these sweet potato muffins.

Want to dive into vegan recipes? The First Mess Cookbook is just the thing.
