The term “store bought” should become your best friend if it isn’t already. It’s certainly mine. I take shortcuts whenever I can, like with this delicious jerk marinade I bought on a whim on my last grocery shop. I could’ve made my own jerk marinade from scratch, but sometimes, a girl’s gotta accept some help….

Fish and Chips with Mushy Peas
Fish, chips, and mushy peas. Oh boy do I miss this classic pub & chippy fare! I resigned myself to never being able to have it again, but alas, anything you can make I can make vegan! Hubby always gets fish and chips when we are back in his homeland (and let’s face it, at…

Top that with some crispy fake bacon, “fak’n”, add in some green peas and baby spinach, and you’ve got yourself heaven on…
Twice Cooked Risotto and Pesto Peas
Sometimes the best things are the things you make up as you go along. And some things photograph poorly but are actually delicious. This is one of those things. We had planned to have a “date night in” with dinner and a movie, and I wanted to make something different and special for the hubster….
