Tomato Puff thing (name suggestions welcome)




I'm a massive fan of the jus roll guys cause they label their products vegan or not, (handy!). Their puff pastry is everything for a fat vegan like myself, it's quick, cheap, easy and freezable. Sure it's probably really high in salt and sugar and whatever, but we're allowed once every so often when you've had a long hard day on the salon floor! Just cover it in vegetables, no one knows, it's fine.
Serves 2
Kinda healthy... Ish... Maybe.

Preset oven to 200 degrees (fan oven over here 👆)

One sheet of jus roll puff pastry (defrosted duh) on a baking tray

Mix together
chopped tomato
Chopped red pepper
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tsp olive oil
2 tsp organic tomato puree
Salt n pepper
Mixed herbs
Whatever else you got

I also put grated violife cheese in mine, it kinda melted (not really, no proper stringyness obviously, it's vegan cheese.) complete option down to personal choice.

Throw it in the middle of the sheet, haphazardly, then fold in the corners of the sheet, haphazardly and sort of squish it around between the layers of pastry and seal it all in, it resembled a kind of star shape by the time I had finished with it. Pastry brush on some milk, of your choice, and I also sprinkled mine with nutritional yeast, because that goes with everything always.

It would work really well as a tear and share "bread", although I definitely just ate this to myself.

Vegan Carmel Deliciousness

I'm gonna get straight to the point, I can drink this stuff. Anyway, it's good on ice cream and fruit and works well on cakes (more to follow on that soon, it makes a nice glaze). It's easy to store and keeps for 3 weeks or so (mine never lasts that long anyway)

Makes about one cup (I store mine in a recycled jar)
Keep in the fridge 
Can be reheated 
Prep time 2 mins
Cook time 10 mins 
Probably about one million calories per teaspoon 


3/4 cup soy milk 
1 cup unrefined raw brown sugar
1/4 pure maple syrup 
2 tablespoons sunflower margarine 
4 drops vanilla essence 
Pinch of salt

1 tablespoon cornstarch combined with 1 tablespoon water separately

Combine milk, sugar and maple syrup in a medium saucepan for 5 minutes whisking often. 
Add in cornstarch and water mix and cook for a further 5 minutes. 
Remove from heat and add vanilla, salt and margarine. 
BAM.

Toast Topping


It's such a cliché of a photo, like instagram puked on my kitchen counter, but thats what 2015 is all about; the internet throwing up on individuals and everyone rolling around and relishing in it. Mmm delishy internet puke.
But honestly, this is SO DAMN FULL OF NUTRIENTS, avocados and tomatoes have been branded as "super foods", and if you're reading my blog, I'm sure you've read about super foods plenty of times before on plenty other internet spots
BAM
BAM
BAM
Just in case you hadn't.
So wholewheat toast (duh) then I'm pretty generous with (soy) butter. Chopped tomato and half an avocado, nutritional yeast, salt n' pepper. yum, easy, healthy, most importantly minimum washing up.
