Recipe: Smashed Frozen Peas & Feta on Toast

This recipe uses frozen peas, some store cupboard staples, and sprinkling of fresh mint & feta to make a deliciously sustainable alternative to avocado toast – and by stocking up on frozen foods like this, I know that changing my brunch plans at the last minute won’t lead to wasted food at home.

Recipe: Simple Spiced Squash Soup with Chickpea Croutons

This is my favourite way to use up any kind of squash (butternut, crown prince and kobocha are my usual go-to) and you can freeze it in batches for another day.

The croutons are just chickpeas, roasted in spices until they are crispy. This recipe makes a whole batch of them – but you can pop them in the fridge and use them to top soups, salads and stews. It’s all completely vegan, and honestly so easy.
