VEGAN BERRY PAVLOVA
Who would have thought that a dessert traditionally made from eggs and cream could be made vegan? And who would have thought that slimy liquid you drain from a can of chickpeas could make such a soft, fluffy meringue? Yep, you best believe it! And it doesn’t take a genius to make this recipe. It’s…

MINI EGG COOKIE SQUARES
For me, Cadbury’s Mini Eggs being back in supermarkets are a sign that life is getting better. Spring is coming, the weather is getting better (sometimes), mornings and evenings are getting brighter. And, most importantly, Easter is coming (and that long bank holiday weekend). These Mini Egg Cookie Squares are the perfect treat to have…

CHEAT’S CARBONARA
We are going to call this a “cheat’s” carbonara because this has really deviated from the traditional method of making a carbonara (and will probably upset a few Italians). But this creamy, smokey and cheesy adaptation of a much-loved pasta dish is so worth it. Saying that, there does appear to be one thing which…

ROASTED VEGETABLE AND SAUSAGE LASAGNE
Italians – I apologise in advance for this one… Is it a crime against lasagne? Maybe. But how can something so wrong, taste so good? Even if you’re a lover of a traditional lasagne, you have to give this a try. It’s succulent, it’s smokey and so moreish – and this substitute for the classic…

SWEET N’ SOUR PORK
Chinese takeaway was certainly my hardest goodbye as a Coeliac – of course there are some Chinese takeaways that offer Coeliac-friendly options but they are few and far between. Saying that, sweet and sour was never my top choice – in fact, I wasn’t really a fan. The sauces you buy in jars from the…

APRICOT, CRANBERRY AND DARK CHOCOLATE ROCK CAKES
Nothing says Spring is coming like an old-fashioned Rock Cake! Best served with a nice cup of tea, these rock cakes are light, sweet and crumbly – just how they are meant to be! With the addition of dark chocolate, these Rock Cakes are a slight twist of the traditional recipe. Nevertheless they are so…

SWEDISH-STYLE MEATBALLS
Disclaimer: these probably aren’t authentic, which is why we are calling them “Swedish-style” meatballs. Regardless, they taste pretty good. But the best part of an IKEA trip is the meatballs you get at the restaurant at the end, right? Here’s how to make them at home, completely gluten free and coeliac-friendly. Paired with a creamy…

PRAWN & CHORIZO LINGUINE
When I want pasta (which is most of the time), there’s two things I look for: one, it’s got to be filling. When I’m starving hungry, without energy and tired, a big bowl of pasta is guaranteed to hit the spot. And two, it’s got to be quick or, at least, easy. If I’m making…

SPICY CHICKEN PASTA
If there’s one thing I am always going to say yes to, it’s pasta. I don’t think I have ever not fancied pasta. Especially if it’s one that I can chuck together in one pan in about half an hour – it’s a no brainer. This pasta recipe is super rich and indulgent, but has…

SAAG PANEER
They weren’t lying when they said spinach is a superfood. I love it. I put it in almost everything (savoury obviously, although I have seen some crazy spinach dessert recipes). It’s packed full of iron and vitamin C. So, if you have Coeliac Disease and are prone to anaemia like me, you really need to…
