Celeriac mash, celeriac dauphiniose (sp). Cauli cheese, I make it with broccoli and leeks mixed in too. Sauce is made with a tub of philly and added chedder. Stirfries made with tofu and lots of green veg.

There's a ton of vegetarian options to choose from in the DCUK cookbooks. I've sampled pretty much every dish in the cookbooks when we were testing out the recipes and they're pretty darn nice. You can download our most recent one > here <

Edit; forgot to mention that if you low carb, be sure to check the nutritional values at the bottom of the recipes. Most dishes are low carb but some aren't.

For lunch today I had quorn pieces cooked with a sprinkle of chilli powder, a chopped up tomato, baby leaf spinach. Then a spoon of greek yoghurt in towards the end... it was lovely.

Lentils with okra and coconut with a little rice .....basmati for me....
Aubergine bake in a herb tomatoe sauce.....
Spicy baked bean stew.....great with sweet potato....

Hope I have helped a little bit.....happy cooking Kat x spices and herbs are my basic needs.....
