Sprouted Mung Beans

I recently heard about a web meme called the 52 Week Salad Challenge. The basic idea is that everyone who participates must grow or forage some salad stuff to eat every week of the year. Well, anyone who reads SmarterFitter Daily knows that I love salads. Furthermore, I ...

Baked BBQ Tofu

When I lived in Austin, Texas, I loved going to Mother’s Restaurant in Hyde Park for their “BBQ On a Bun” sandwich. The sandwich was basically BBQ tofu with lettuce, tomato, red onion and thick sandwich pickles. The tofu was spectacular, seemingly baked in a nutty coating, similar ...

Vegetarian Haggis for Burns Night

Today marks the occasion of Burns Night, a celebration of the life and work of Scottish poet Robert Burns. These celebrations usually take the form of a “Burns Night Supper” where the traditional Scottish dish of haggis is typically served, along with equally traditional neeps (mashed swede) and ...

Ranch Dressing

While I was in the US, I rediscovered Ranch dressing. Or should I said, discovered Ranch dressing, because I was never really a big fan of the stuff even when I lived in America. Ranch dressing has a bad reputation. First, Ranch is generally regarded as being terrible ...

Stories from America

It’s been a week since I got back from my trip to America, and it’s been a most surreal return. I’ve gone from four weeks of constant people-time in a thriving metropolis (Chicago mostly) to complete solitude in my quiet country cottage. It feels weird. Quiet. And so ...

Making Christmas Presents

I’m writing this from the plane to Chicago, heading “home” for four weeks with my family and far-flung friends over Christmas and New Year’s. This year, I’ve been making lots of my Christmas presents, and have been especially inspired by all of the goings-on around the #letsmakechristmas meme ...

Carrot and Swede Soup with Coriander and Creme Fraiche

It’s three days before I fly to Chicago for the holidays, and I’m on a mission to use up everything in my fridge so I don’t have to throw anything away. I’m down to the tricky vegetables: swede, beetroot and a mountain of carrots. Some of the carrots ...

Cauliflower and Broccoli Omelet with Feta

I’m not really sure what to call this. Open-faced omelet? Frittata? Chunky vegetable pancake? Whatever you call it, I’ve really been enjoying this style of “omelet” lately, and this particular combination of ingredients worked very well. I use parsley here, but I could see dill and/or mint also ...

Discovering GPS on my iPhone

Those of you who already use a GPS (or an iPhone for that matter) will probably roll your eyes throughout most of this post. But for me, both are a novelty, and “the new” hasn’t quite worn off yet, so I appreciate you letting me have my moment. ...

Apple mini cakes

So many people commented on this picture that it seemed like a blog post was in order to explain the story behind it. I guess it all begins with apples. When the apple glut arrived a few months ago, I started amassing apple recipes, including this Apple Brown ...

Camping in the Brecon Beacons

I went to Wales last weekend to do some camping and walking in Brecon Beacons National Park. Camping and walking I did, as well as a bit of thinking, but not about life, the future, and other deep things I thought I’d have headspace for. Instead, I kept ...

Fagioli all Uccelletto with cavolo nero

Sometimes a dish comes along that reminds me how wonderfully flavoursome, satisfying and comforting good vegetarian food can be. Fagioli all’ Uccelletto, or “beans made in the manner of little birds”, is a Tuscan dish classically made with cannellini beans served in a rich tomato sauce. The name ...
