Mushroom & Walnut Quinoa Bowls with Baja Sauce
Recipe and images by Emma Galloway Growing up vegetarian, I’ve never been one for ‘fake meats’, which are usually full of hydrolysed soy protein and about a million other ingredients I wouldn’t usually eat. But I have to say, there’s something quite special about this homemade vegetarian ‘mince’ alternative, made with mushrooms and walnuts. Super […]

Recipes and images by Amber Bremner Salmorejo is a quick and easy chilled Spanish soup that captures the essence of summer tomatoes straight off the vine.

To make this dairy-free and therefore vegan also, omit feta cheese and use olive oil when cooking the millet. Serves 4–6 4 medium courgettes, […]

Salmon Salad
Recipe and image Fiona Hugues Since the Middle Ages, humans have been smoking salmon to preserve the fish, enabling them to eat it over the long winters. Thousands of years later it’s rumoured Victoria Beckham eats salmon every day. It’s also said supermodel Elle MacPherson religiously eats greens everyday. So surely, I thought, putting these […]
ANTIPASTI SALAD
