Pudding or breakfast? This could really be either but I made it for pudding today. It is a blackcurrant, chia and pistachio pudding topped with coconut yoghurt. We planted two blackcurrant bushes this year in the hope that we would be able to just have homegrown ones this year. However currently there is one blackcurrant and I am not convinced we are going to get anymore 😂 fingers crossed they grow better next year. To make this I slowed heated some blackcurrant with a splash of water, 1 tsp maple syrup (to take away the tartness but you can add more if you like it sweeter!) and 1 tbsp chia seeds. Once the blackcurrants have broken down take off the heat and leave to cool. Then take four dates and mash them with a fork, add chopped pistachios and mix. Finally place the blackcurrant chia pudding in the bottom of a jar, then a layer of the pistachio and date mix, top with yoghurt and then I added a sprinkling of nutmeg and cacao nibs. Super easy, really delicious summer pudding! But you could make it and place the lid on the jar, put it in the fridge and have it for breakfast too! Sadly I don’t have enough left over for this! It’s really easy to adapt for different soft fruits too. I’m already dreaming up a banoffee version! . . . . . . . . . . . . . #vegandessert #veganbreakfast #vegan #plantbased #plantbaseddiet #blackcurrant #chiapudding #chiaseeds #cacaonibs #coconut #coconutyoghurt #jar #pistachio #dates #pregnant #pregnancy #healthypregnancy #pregnancyfood #vegetarian #healthy #delicious #f52grams #dessert #pudding #sweet #treat #refinedsugarfree #foodblogger #foodstyling #sustainableliving

R O A S T S T R A W B E R R I E S | on cooler summer days there is nothing nicer than a summery warming pudding. Rice pudding with roast strawberries is one of my favourite go to summer puddings. I make mine with coconut milk, vanilla and a touch of nutmeg, you can add maple syrup for an extra bit of sweetness but I don’t think it needs it. I then top it with strawberries that have been roasted in some vanilla and pistachio nuts for crunch and colour. With Antony being away this week and Rowan deciding that rice pudding is not acceptable (even though it is the same as his porridge!) I have lots left over for breakfasts this week 😊 . . . . . . . . . #dessert #vegan #vegandessert #vegandesserts #vegetarian #strawberry #strawberries #ricepudding #refinedsugarfree #glutenfree #vegetarianfamily #pregnancy #pregnancyfood #summerfood #summerpudding #healthyfood #healthyrecipes #pistachio #foodblogger #foodblog #foodstylist #foodstyling #foodphotographer #scottishbloggers #edinburghbloggers #wholefoodplantbased #plantbased #mycommontable #sustainablefood #slowliving

O U T D O O R E N T E R T A I N I N G | there are days I wish I could transplant the @secretherbgarden into my garden so I can eat in it’s beautiful setting all the time. I could eat every meal in this secret nook surrounded by plants. I love eating outdoors, as much as it is possible in Scotland! We need to get an outdoor table to eat at still as we end up just eating from our laps or setting up picnic blankets, even at dinner time! Rowan loves eating outside, especially as it means he can still run around and then just keep coming back for more. Plus it’s easier to clean up the mess! It’s definitely a day for eating lunch outside and then we will see how warm it is at dinner time! . . . . . . . . #secretherbgarden #outdooreating #alfresco #alfrescodining #garden #gardens #plants #outdoorliving #outdoorlife #eatingoutside #eatingoutdoors #outsideentertaining #eatyourgarden #nature #getoutdoors #gardendesign #kitchentable #dining #edinburghbloggers #scottishbloggers #rustic #eatseasonally #eattheseasons #organic #vegetarian #vegan #sustainable #sustainableliving #diningtable #wanderlust

N E C T A R I N E S A L A D | I love it when nectarines and peaches come into season as not only do they taste delicious but can be used in both sweet and savoury dishes (as well as on their own!). This is my nectarine, mint, quinoa and mozzarella salad which I simply drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and @belazu_co balsamic vinegar. The weather is very close and so hot so salads should like this are perfect. I don’t eat very much dairy at all, if any, but I am listening to my body this pregnancy and if it wants dairy then I will have some. . . . . . . . . #vegetarian #salad #nectarines #mycommontable #healthy #delicious #mint #mozzarella #blue #foodandflatlay #vegetarianrecipes #foodblog #foodstylist #balsamicvinegar #foodblogger #foodphotographer #scottishbloggers #edinburghbloggers #healthypregnancy #pregnancyfood #pregnancy #plantbased #healthyeating #seasonal #seasonalfood #sustainableliving #organic #fresh #ceramics #herbs

R A I N B O W B O W L | it is always great to eat a rainbow of fruit and vegetables 🌈 This is a very simple butternut squash, carrot and raisin salad with a tahini dressing and topped with cashew nuts. I may have put quite a lot of tahini in as I used @belazu_co tahini which I could honestly drink it is so delicious! I served it with kale, tomatoes and a coconut yoghurt turmeric dressing. Simple yet incredibly tasty! I have plenty of the butternut squash salad left for lunch tomorrow (if I don’t end up eating them later!). Eating healthily in pregnancy is really important, so meals like this are wonderful! I had a midwifes appointment today which went really well. It was wonderful to hear our little ones heartbeat and it has been very happy wriggling about lots today! And as soon as Rowan has gone to bed I’m going to tuck into a vegan chocolate pudding and watch some more of the @thepositivebirthcompany digital pack 😊 . . . . . . . . . #gifted #rainbowbowl #buddhabowl #vegan #veganrecipes #delicious #foodstylist #mycommontable #plantbased #foodandflatlay #foodblog #foodblogger #butternutsquash #tahini #turmeric #kale #veganfood #pregnant #healthypregnancy #healthypregnancyeating #veganpregnancy #nourishing #salad #vegetarian #organic #ceramics #everydayfood #scottishbloggers #edinburghbloggers #foodstyling

P I N E A P P L E C R U M B L E | happy summer solstice!! I can’t believe that for the last six months everyday the nights have been getting longer and we are already going to be descending into the countdown to autumn and winter. I am just over half way through this pregnancy so for me I am counting it as the count down to meeting our second baby! I decided to make this pineapple crumble firstly because I had a pineapple that had gone slightly over and secondly thought it would be a nice treat for the solstice. It was incredibly easy to make, just cut up one pineapple into chunks, mix with 1 tbsp of coconut sugar (or soft brown sugar) and 1 tbsp of cornflour, then place in your crumble dish. Mix together 1/2 cup ground almonds, 1 cup oats, 1/2 cup desiccated coconut and 3 tbsp coconut oil then place ontop of the pineapple. Cook for 45 minutes at 150C. Serve with coconut yoghurt, oat cream or ice cream!! . . . . . . . . . . . . #vegandessert #vegan #summersolstice #dessert #pudding #plantbased #plantbaseddessert #pineapple #crumble #ceramics #foodblogger #foodblog #foodstyling #foodstylist #foodphotographer #foodandflatlay #healthypregnancy #pregnant #scottishbloggers #edinburghbloggers #eastlothianfoodanddrink #vegetarian #veganrecipes #vegetarianfamily #coconut #coconutoil #mycommontable #kitchentable #sweettreat #f52grams

T A P A | for my birthday Antony and I went out for the first time just the two of us since we had Rowan (who is now 19 months old!). We left him with the wonderful Abi and my brother and we enjoyed a couple of hours together. We felt so giddy like going on a first date! Of course we had to go to our favourite restaurant in Edinburgh @tapaedinburgh and the food was incredible!! I have not eaten out for a very long time so it was a real treat! The aubergine crisps with honey have always been a favourite of mine and I could just eat them everyday! They had a couple of new items on the vegetarian menu which were amazing! The reinvented gazpacho which was a Bloody Mary sorbet on a bed of pickled cucumber was so refreshing and full of flavour I can not wait to have it again!! The cous cous meditteraneo had a beautiful coriander salsa running through it which was delicious! There are no photos of the churros as we demolished them in seconds of them arriving at the table! It was wonderful to have a few hours as just husband and wife and will definitely be doing it a few more times before baby number 2 makes an appearance!! Thank you for a wonderful evening @antonyjb99 and @tapaedinburgh 😊 . . . . . . . . . . . . #tapa #tapas #vegetarian #datenight #happybirthday #plantbased #restaurant #restaurantreview #edinburghfoodie #edinburghfood #edinburghfoodbloggers #edinburghbloggers #scottishbloggers #scottishfoodanddrink #edinburghrestaurant #foodie #foodblogger #foodblog #foodstylist #foodstyling #vegetarianfood #vegetarianlife #mycommontable #eeeeeats #food #spanishfood #leith #seasonalfood #delicious #aubergine

B I R T H D A Y C A K E | we managed to find the time to make a birthday cake today. We made an elderflower and strawberry cake. The cake recipe is from @we_are_food but we changed the filling to strawberries macerated in elderflower cordial and @oatly creme fraiche. We have had a lovely day as a family, a great way to start my thirties. I’m still unsure how I feel about being thirty, I’m looking forward to expanding our family, figuring out how to be a work from home mum whilst nurturing our children and just continuing to live our seasonally led lives. I’m also looking forward to the end of October and being able to have a glass of champagne! . . . . . . . . . . . #birthdaycake #mycommontable #birthday #cake #baking #elderflowers #elderflower #strawberry #plantbasedbaking #plantbased #seasonal #seasonaleating #summercake #delicious #foodstylist #foodandflatlay #kitchentable #familyfood #babyledweaning #pregnant #pregnancyfood #healthypregnacy #summer #foodblog #foodbloggers #edinburghbloggers #scottishbloggers #organic #ceramics #foodphotographer

H A P P Y F A T H E R S D A Y | and happy 30th birthday to me!! I’m very happy to be sharing my 30th birthday with Father’s Day. We woke up and I had my birthday presents in bed with a cup of pregnancy tea. Then we came down and made pancakes for breakfast with strawberries (Rowan ate most of them and wouldn’t let me and Antony have a look in!). Antony got his Father’s Day card and present during breakfast and now we are going to spend the rest of the day together. I think we are going to go for a walk on the beach and then we are making sourdough pizzas for dinner!! A lovely family Father’s Day and 30th birthday!! . . . . . . . . . . . #fathersday #happyfathersday #happybirthday #30thbirthday #30thbirthdaybreakfast #pancakes #breakfast #familybreakfast #hygge #fika #mycommontable #strawberry #strawberries #maplesyrup #cinnamon #cinnamonsugar #foodstylist #kitchentable #ceramics #vegetarian #foodblog #plantbased #foodblogger #scottishbloggers #edinburghbloggers #edinburghfoodbloggers #foodandflatlay #mybeautifulstories #treasurethistime #eastlothianfoodanddrink
