We brought back some truffle salt from Italy and are having it with gluten free spaghetti, grated courgette and artichokes - I also added chickpeas on the side 😋 I made a bit extra so there are leftovers for lunch and some courgette for little turnip’s lunch. I am trying to get into the habit of cooking bigger batches as currently I feel that I am cooking ALL the time to make food for the little guy! This way I’d save a lot of time so trying to come up with a good process 🍝 . . #vegan #veganmom #veganpasta #pasta #courgette #chickpeas #truffle #trufflepasta #delicious #love #italy #plantbased #plantbaseddiet #plantbasedpasta #vegansofig #healingwithfood #breastfeeding #veganfoodshare #veganfood #glutenfree #glutenfreepasta #autoimmune #inflammatoryarthritis #rheumatoidarthritis

Swipe left for cuteness overload 😍😍😍 Gosh Italy was fantastic and Venice was the highlight, I cant wait to go back soon again! For last night’s supper I made some pasta with a veggie and tomato sauce. The Italians always have several courses (a tradition I can totes live with!) so while the other guys went for some cheesy stuff I had a salad that my mum often makes: tomatoes, onion and balsamic vinegar + we added capers and had a green salad on the side 🥗 And did you know that the Italians do NOT use a spoon and fork when eating spaghetti?!?!? “Spoons with pasta are for babies..!” Instead you perfect your fork-only technique, which I worked on today and must say is something I feel I’ll be able to master eventually. Oh and we encountered that little hedgehog in our walk and it was the cutest thing ever 😍 Okay over and out, sleep tight ✨✨✨ . . #vegan #vegansofig #veganmom #breastfeeding #veganpasta #pasta #spaghetti #veganspaghetti #healingwithfood #plantbaseddiet #plantbased #paddisonprogram #italy #hedgehog #veganfoodshare

... when in Italy 😝 there are so many amazing gelaterias around now where the serve one exciting sorbetto after the other..!!! I went for chocolate and a citrus one which I cant remember the name of - but basically it reminded me of this chocolate and orange sweet I used to love when I was younger 🍫🍊 It is so important to maintain a good balance in life and for me it means eating loads of greens with pretty much all my meals but then also having a chocolate mousse made with avo, cacao, nut butter and bananas every now and again, or sneaking in a pizza when I just want to veg with the husband in front of a movie 🎥 I’d love to know what balance means to you guys ❤️ . . #vegan #veganmom #vegansofig #healingwithfood #plantbaseddiet #vegano #vegansorbet #Sorbet #love #italy #ferrara #vegandessert #balance #namaste

These lovely friends that were staying with have been making the trip so special and the mother in the family wanted to cook me something but was at loss at to what to make. She is your typical Italian mama and has the traditional cheesy, meaty dishes down to a perfection, so she very kindly steamed and pressure cooked me spinach and courgette, baked aubergines and made a gorgeous salad, all served with rice. Before lunch she then asked me what I actually eat and I showed her a few pages from my upcoming cookbook - landing on the cashew cheese pasta page. She got very excited and brought out ingredients that I mentioned, so we whizzed up an alternative to it: walnuts, almonds, fresh lemon juice (I need to get myself one of those automatic lemon juicers thank you very much!! 🍋😮) mustard seeds, fresh basil, half an apple and water 🍏 Blended with a hand mixer to a sauce-like consistency it took the dish to a whole new level! Little Turnip wanted some of mama’s food so I had him on my lap and fed him from my plate - he loved it and couldn’t get enough ❤️ So I’m grateful that I had the opportunity to think on my feet and outside my comfort zone today and end up with such a simple yet delicious dish that the rest of our crew enjoyed too 🙏🏻 That last picture is just of a window and wall so beautifully lit up by the setting sun 🌞 . . #vegan #veganmom #veganfood #veganfoodshare #vegansofig #delicious #hempseeds #healthyfood #healingwithfood #paddisonprogram #basil #plantbaseddiet #rheumatoidarthritis #autoimmune #inflammatoryarthritis #love #namaste #gratitude #rovigo #italy
