Healing On A Plate

I am a qualified Vegan Natural Chef who has trained at College of Naturopathic Medicine in London.

I specialise in creating therapeutic menus to support people who are trying to improve their health through nutrition.

At one of my recent women’s health events, as we were eating the delicious black rice sushi bowl, with tofu smothered in an exotic mushroom sauce, and a pickled red cabbage and carrot slaw - all created by the participants - I was asked if I eat like this all the time.
Over recent days, I have photographed some of my evening meals and thought I would share them on this, World Vegan Day.
Featured are: Lions Mane Mushroom steak with steamed asparagus, beans and broccoli, grilled courgettes and mashed potato; charred cabbage with dhal, coconut yoghurt, tamarind and date chutney, pomegranate and almonds; sesame crusted tofu, edamame, avocado, gochujang sauce on sushi rice; miso mushroom orzotto with cashew cream and pine nuts.
Not only healthy, protein rich and well on the way to your 30 plants a day, but absolutely delicious too!

One of my favourite things to do when I’m visiting another country is to try creating dishes using local produce and flavourings.
We arrived in Croatia late last night and after visiting some of the local markets today we had this absolutely delicious chickpea stew for dinner, bursting with Croatian herbs, fresh vegetables and mushrooms, olives and capers, and drizzled with a balsamic glaze.

I love a good SoundSpa, and I highly recommend Cydnei and Catherine.

I recently had the privilege of dining at Gauthier Soho and the experience has been truly inspirational in so many ways!
Tonight, instead of aubergine curry, we had aubergine slices roasted with whole Indian spices and truffle oil, on a bed of lemon, chickpea and cashew purée, topped with steamed green beans and crushed tomatoes roasted in turmeric, black pepper, ginger, cardamon and coconut oil. The garnish is a mango and cucumber salsa and the dish is accompanied by a wild mushroom gravy. It was very tasty!

Some leftover pastry and vegan quiche custard, along with some creative inspiration overnight, turned into these tasty olive and sun-dried tomato quiches with an almond, oat, flax and chia seed crust.
Served with a side of sweet potato, artichoke and red bean salad, garnished with toasted pumpkin seeds, walnuts, pomegranate jewels, fresh mint and basil.
Breakfast anyone?

Jackfruit is a great meat substitute because of its fibrous texture.
Here it is teamed with chickpeas, red pepper and carrots, coriander and spring onions to make a delicious vegan alternative to Jamaican oxtail stew. On the side are spicy rice with black beans, and pan-fried plantain.
This meal is rich in protein, fibre, calcium, as well as phytoestrogens, making it an excellent nutritional support for women going through the menopause. Clinical trials suggest that phytoestrogens also support prostate health in men.

Breaking an 18-hour fast with a high protein, whole food plant-based feast! Scrambled tofu, steamed kale, chestnut mushrooms, roasted chickpeas, olive and rosemary sausage, sourdough toast, raw cacao with oat milk and sparkling water with apple cider vinegar. No oil, no refined sugar.
Intermittent fasting and phytoestrogen-rich proteins are two holistic tools you can try regulate your hormones during menopause or if you have PCOS.

When you’ve just spent one of the hottest days of the year driving on the motorway for 6 hours, the last thing you want to do is spend another hour in front of the stove cooking a meal.
With the help of my food processor, this came together in minutes! A chickpea tuna open sandwich, flavoured with nori, capers, sea salt, fresh dill and lemon, on a gluten-free sweet potato bread roll, with a side of coleslaw and cashew mayo. Perfect for a heatwave!

The leftovers do not in any way represent the amount of food that was eaten over the past two days - more my desire to make sure that no one went hungry!
We had Jamaican cornmeal porridge pudding with fresh mango, scrambled tofu and kale with smokey butter beans, quinoa salad with spicy chickpeas and a garden full of fresh veg, and the magnificent pizzas. We didn’t manage to get to the chickpea tuna with gluten-free bread rolls and coleslaw with cashew mayo - that will be dinner when we reach our destination this evening.
I’m going to miss my little kitchen away from home - thank you Graysonside Guest House for a wonderful stay in your well-stocked, beautiful apartment.

Playing personal chef in the Lake District for the next few days!
It was an eight-hour drive to the accommodation so dinner was a hastily thrown together gluten-free pizza - a light oat and sweet potato base topped with cashew cheese, sautéed kale, artichokes, sun-dried tomatoes, jalapeños, Kalamata olives, capers, chili flakes and a drizzle of truffle oil.
Stone-baked to perfection in the portable pizza oven - so good!
