What I’ve learned in Veganuary so far

What I’ve learned in Veganuary so far

I am, in a great number of ways, a lot like Beyonce. The most recent iteration of this Bibi-yonce confluence has been our temporary conversion to a 100% plant-based diet. For the month of January this year, we Veggie Runners have shirked the cheese, ditched the eggs and got rid of milk and joined thousands…

Ultimate Veggie Burgers

Ultimate Veggie Burgers

As we’ve said before, we don’t really believe in “new year, starve yourself” resolutions. I would hope you know us well enough by now to know that. I have made myself one January pact, though – I want to walk with a lighter environmental footprint. Being a vegetarian helps my carbon footprint a lot, and…

Vegan Ginger-Chocolate Brownies

Vegan Ginger-Chocolate Brownies

I was given Scott Jurek’s book ‘Eat & Run’ for Christmas and have been devouring it ever since. It’s part running guide, part autobiography of the world’s greatest ultramarathon runner and part vegan recipe book. A proper book review will follow shortly when I’ve gulped the whole thing down. His book couldn’t come at a…

Ras-El-Hanout Butternut Squash Risotto

Ras-El-Hanout Butternut Squash Risotto

This Ras-El-Hanout Butternut Squash Risotto is something I’ve been tweaking for a while – the sweetness of the squash works well with the cinnamon in the North African spices. I’m sure a risotto purist would recoil at the sound of it, but they’d soon change their mind when they got a taste. If you have…

Spiced Leek and Chickpeas

Spiced Leek and Chickpeas

All images: Zsolt Sandor / MothershipUK This lightly spiced dish has a delicate, distinctive flavour. We created it for the vegan brunch we hosted after the Jane Tomlinson Leeds 10k in July. All of our guests had bravely (foolishly?!) sweated their way round the course on a sweltering day. The least we could do was…

Mexican Vegan Chilli Chocolate Pots

Mexican Vegan Chilli Chocolate Pots

Be warned: these Mexican Vegan Chilli Chocolate Pots may look harmless and easy going but they have a real kick to them. They are definitely not for kids! Inspired by spiced hot chocolate we had while skiing, a little goes a long way with these dark, decadent pots. These cheeky choc pots went down a…

Vegan Chia Choc Mint Protein Shake

Vegan Chia Choc Mint Protein Shake

We’re deep in marathon training at the moment (yes, I know that makes it sound like we’re in the jungle, which could be about right – we’re drawing on all our resources and soldiering on even when we’d rather lie down in the shade of a tree and have a snooze). We’re also hungry a…

Vegan Cherry Chocolate Tiffin

Vegan Cherry Chocolate Tiffin

These little Vegan Cherry Chocolate Tiffin bars taste all grown up and sophisticated but are really easy to make. They’re vegan (you probably picked up on that from the title) and made with fresh cherries if you can find them at a reasonable price. If not, dried fruit will do just fine. The flavour is…

Video: Leeds 10k Vegan Brunch

Video: Leeds 10k Vegan Brunch

Video and all images: Zsolt Sandor / MothershipUK As you know, we love chatting and great vegetarian food in equal measure – add running into the mix and you have our idea of a perfect weekend. After the Leeds 10k recently, we hosted a post-race brunch for some of our runner friends, operating a strict…

Arroz Verde (Green Rice)

Arroz Verde (Green Rice)

Image: Scott Jones / MothershipUK Ordinary rice seems so plain and boring once you’ve tasted this. It’s very simple to make but packs a real punch of flavour. This is a great carbohydrate staple for runners and, although it’s originally a Mexican dish, don’t reserve it only for eating with your chilli non carne. It…

Quinoa with Spiced Roasted Vegetables

Quinoa with Spiced Roasted Vegetables

This Quinoa with Spiced Roasted Vegetables was one of the dishes we made for our vegan brunch after the Jane Tomlinson Leeds 10k. The only activities we ever contemplate on race days are running and eating so we needed tasty dishes we could prepare the night before. This one fits the bill perfectly; the constituent parts…

Pico de Gallo Salsa

Pico de Gallo Salsa

Image: Zsolt Sandor / MothershipUK This salsa is perfect for when you have a glut of sun-plump tomatoes. It adds life to just about anything in the kitchen – from scrambled eggs to burgers, to avocado on toast. It has a light, fresh flavour and is bursting with antioxidants and lots of lovely Vitamin C. We…
