Ok, perchance sacrilegious, but I’d never had @ikea #meatballs before I went plant based. However!! Turns out they have #plantbased ones, so I decided to give ‘em a go. Spaghetti is such simple, quick comfort food - perfect for a rainy, blah night. They cooked up well and tasted fine! Not saying they’re the best, most flavourful plant balls I’ve ever had, but they did the job credibly. Cheers!No filter. Just the beaming face of a joyfully aging woman surrounded by love (and tea!!).Some days, some years, things just fall into place. Best 31st bday ever. (Technically, the ONLY 31st bday I’ve ever had, but still! It was pretty freaking grand! Thanks to the crew and @s_ggreco for a wonderful, fabulous day ♥️)It is so fantastic running into old friends!!!MmMmmMMMM!! Tweaked an old recipe favorite - added jackfruit where chicken used to be and it is 💯 PRIME!! The Greek Pasta pairs nicely w this Sauv Blanc from Marlborough, New Zealand and a lovely spring day ⛅️ 10/10 would recommend 😄These cookies are the freaking TOP!! Swoon. 🤤 vegan, gluten free, and absolutely brilliant. @partakefoods good on ya! 🍪Archives
