This is my family's recipe collection of vintage, old-fashioned recipes re-made with everyday vegan friendly ingredients. All these recipes use ordinary ingredients, are tested on a real family, aim to be budget-friendly, and easy to prepare. These recipes focus on old British recipes but there are a few of our favourite versions of traditional recipes from other parts of the world.

🕯️ Special December Day Spotlight: St Lucy's Day (13th December) 🕯️
St Lucy's Day, observed on 13 December, was once associated with the darkest days of the year and the long chilly days of winter. Before the calendar change of 1752, it marked the shortest day, and in Britain it was not about feasting but simple, sustaining food that was the necessity.
Meals such as winter vegetable pottage, porridge, and plain grain puddings made from rice or barley would have been the usual fare. A few ingredients drawn from dwindling pantries, were put together to make wholesome and filling meals for hungry tummies.
For many this was the final stretch before Christmas, so the recipes we are sharing below are frugal, warming, and comforting meals and puddings, best enjoyed in the run up to Christmas.
