Excess Cabbage
Words Vicki Ravlich-Horan Images Ashlee DeCaires For me, cabbage is one of those vegetables that doesn’t come with fond childhood memories – be it the boiled variety that accompanied many a winter meal in the 80s or the horrors of the cabbage soup diet.

TEMPEH BALLS
Recipe and Image Amber Bremner These tempeh balls are a fantastic high protein stand-in for traditional meatballs, inspired by the classic flavours of Italian pork sausage.

FREEKEH SALAD WITH ROASTED TOMATOES AND CHIMICHURRI
Recipe and images by Amber Bremner Freekeh is green wheat, harvested while the grains are soft and then sun dried. The chaff is burned off, leaving behind slightly smoky, roasted wheat.
