Gluten Free Zucchini Pancakes

I found this recipe while searching for yet more ways to use chickpeas & stumbled across these which contain chickpea flour.  I made these last week, they are really easy & they are pretty good.  I didn't use the herbs or the zucchini flowers because I didn't have them but they were still tasty.  I had them with chutney & some vegies.  The recipe says that it serves 2 but I made 4 smaller pancakes & 1 pancake each was plenty.  They were also good reheated for lunch the next day.

Quick & easy pasta


This is a super quick & easy pasta that I make sometimes when I really can't be bothered but have to prepare a meal.

  • Roast some pumpkin
  • While that is roasting, cook up some pasta
  • While the pasta is cooking, fry some oyster mushrooms is a little bit of olive oil & plenty of garlic
  • When it is all ready, add the pasta & pumpkin to the frypan with the mushrooms, add some lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, halved cherry tomatoes & baby spinach
  • Toss it all together & serve

Cauliflower Dal & Parathas



When I saw this recipe on Fatfree Vegan Kitchen for Cauliflower Dal I immediately went out & bought panch phoran with the intention of making it but forgot about it until I was walking through the Vic Market last week & saw whole cauliflowers for $1.20. So this ended up being a super cheap meal & it made heaps - 6 huge serves. Besides being cheap it was really tasty & really easy so a winner all round!

I served it with basmati rice & parathas. The parathas are from this recipe on Vegan Yum Yum. I have made the aloo parathas before & I really like them but I couldn't really be bothered tonight so I just made plain parathas & they were also delicious!

This was a great meal!
