The weather here remains bright, hot and still, after a wash out of a summer up to now. All my summer recipes are coming out. It's been a lovely weekend.

I'm making Impossible burger Big Mac's on the barbecue for some friends tonight. They're all meat eaters except for one. I expect they will be impressed. Only thing I don't have are sesame seed buns.

So currently on a major budget and having to make things strech. Did pasta with a veggie broth sauce....I screwed up and didn't thicken it well so it was edible but not great. Left overs I added a jar of pasta sauce and it was ...okay. Today, last day of trying to make something of this damn left over pasta, I added a bit more tomato sauce, more seasoning, some flax seed, put it in a cast iron skillet, and topped with some seasoned breadcrumbs and put in the oven for awhile. Turned out pretty damn good.

It's great when an accident leads to something new.

Mondays are rubbish: I work until 8 and eat at work: instant noodles and a vegeburger sandwich.

This thread is becoming a habit.

Jackfruit & potato hash with cabbage salad.

First time I've had jackfruit. I expected it to be a bit limp and 'courgetty' on cooking, but it's great. Very satisfying texture.

A bean dip is exactly what I've been craving, but keep forgetting to make it

I make stir fry veggies from Aldi Asian blend, and tofu, with crushed pineapple mixed with the teriyaki sauce packet, and fresh grated ginger. I bought LaChoy chow mein noodles for this! Such a staple when my kids were growing up
I found we still had the silken chocolate tofu pie in the fridge, so I had a piece of that. OMG it's the best of the best chocolate dessert I can think of! One of very few I can have a small slice
Lots of recipes,but this is my favorite

Aubergine bake (aubergines, passata, soya mince/herbs/spices/ topped with Violife cheese and cooked in the air fryer.
A tossed green salad/vinaigrette/yeast flakes.

[Emma JC]

a Beyond Burger without a bun, covered in onion and jalapeno, side of french fries, steamed broccoli and brussel sprouts

we have decided we will not buy Beyond Burgers again - maybe if we have a BBQ in the future but they were not great, we would rather have had Soy Curls with BBQ sauce on them

paying for the low fibre today.... grrrrr

I made some spicy lentils earlier in the week. Today a sheet pan veggies with b sprouts, sweet potato onion, garlic and lots of spices. It is going to be a bowl with a tahini garlic creamy sauce.

That sounds good! I forgot to get a sweet potato. I dislike them except in the Ethiopian inspired peanut stew I've been wanting

I made mac and cheese with the special vegan cheddar shreds Aldi has now. I made it like dairy mac and cheese, and have to say I think I prefer my usual nooch recipe. It was good, I also cooked two pounds of kale with garlic and the two paired nicely
