If you need cheering up this week take time out in the kitchen
Wow what a week. Love sent to you all and especially those of you who once again find yourselves in lockdown. I hope you have the ingredients to cook up feasts for yourself during this time. Food is our saviour right now. Get cooking for yourself, your loved ones and your neighbours.
This week was request week and no requests came in but many moons ago my friend asked me for recipes she could make and grab for her breakfast when on the run to work. As many of you will now be at home this recipe may not be so appropriate but it is a lovely grab and go recipe and maybe you can have it ready in the fridge for a few of your lunches while you are at home.
It is inspired by my BFF from primary school’s gran’s recipes. Has anyone tried the Not Salmon Cakes. They are good too.
This recipe is a quick quiche recipe. I remember many years ago my friend Lisa’s mum making me a quick quiche where there was no base you just threw the flour in with the rest of the ingredients. Well this recipe is just like that but made vegan.
