Sunday Roast
Vegetarian Nut Roast Being in the UK reminds me of the traditional Sunday Roast. Being vegetarian does not mean you need to miss out on this at all. Take a slice or two of vegetarian nut roast, and serve up with the roast potatoes, gravy and vegetables. Of course,...
Travelling vegetarian
Our homade muesli mix Still on the move trying to earn a living. In UK at the moment about to go offshore again. I really miss our kitchen with all the useful ingredients and utensils to prepare my favourite dishes. One meal I miss most is our homemade muesli for...
Going French and Lebanese
Endive, roquefort and walnut salad Although healthy eating is one of my passions, at the moment it doesnt earn me any money. For that, I am still involved in the marine industry, which is why I am at the moment in Point Noire in the Congo. I arrived after a long day...

Fritata and green salad
Fritata ingredients Karen and I are putting together a website of the same name as this blog – Meat Free Everyday. At the beginning, I wondered if there was room for yet another site about food and recipes. But over the last few weeks I have been amazed at the number...
Getting a bit cheesy
Ingredients for ricotta stuffed mushrooms I love cheese, but have always stuck to the blander ones like cheddar, edam or ementhaler. Living with a vegetarian, I have discovered how to use some more adventurous types such as mozzarella, haloumi and ricotta. At this...
The Vegetarian ‘look-alike’ meal
