Hi, and thanks for stopping by! In two words this blog is all about cooking and creating (and occasionally some other topics I can't help posting about). I'm passionate about plant-based foods, and making cool stuff! If you think we might have something in common, stop by and say hi!

I thought I would share with you what I had for brunch this morning! I’ll just quickly explain that it was for brunch and not breakfast as I have a fresh veg and fruit juice every morning since I did a 7-day juice fast (see here & here). (I haven’t done a proper follow up to the posts, but I will mention now that I feel like I have more energy consistently throughout each day).
There’s not much to say except the left over pumpkin (aka: squash) made a lovely spread on my toast this morning. I added fresh basil from the garden, freshly ground sea salt and some sesame seeds to keep the goodness flowing.
Do you like to eat leftovers for breakfast? What’s your fave? I’ll admit that I love leftover pizza from the fridge – don’t get me wrong, straight out of the oven is even better!
Talk about inspiring! You guys are awesome! The list of entries has indeed become a to do list for future edible spoon toppings! I can’t wait to try a pizza version (seriously, what a great idea!), bruschetta and a sweet combination. Unfortunately there can only be one winner. The winner was selected using a random number generator, and will be receiving an email in the next few minutes! Thanks everyone for entering. You can get your own kit at the Edible Spoon Company.
Although it hasn’t been seven years, the last three have gone so quickly! On days like today I like to look through our wedding photos and reminisce on one of my favourite days!
I thought it might be a bit overkill to show you through my whole day! To see more, check back in one years time. x
FIY – We were wed on the small island of Koh Samui, Thailand. Oh, to go back to that time and place!
A few years ago I did a post on how to make edible spoons and bowls from dough. I thought it was a great idea, but just not with my method and recipe. I searched online to see if anyone else had done something similar and stumbled across a small handful of ideas, but then found this little gem… Roy, the inventor of the Edible Spoon Making Kit has indeed thought of a really simple and clever way to make edible spoons. Roy kindly sent me a kit to try (and will be giving one lucky reader a free kit!). Since receiving the kit, I’ve made well over 100 spoons (maybe 200 by now) and have enjoyed sitting around a spread of dips and toppings munching away on the spoons.
To make the spoons, simply roll flat a piece of bread, punch out the spoon shape, press the cutout into the spoon and bake (more detailed instructions supplied with the kit).
While I was making a batch of spoons and some home made pasta, a time saving idea popped into my head. Watch the video below to see how I used a pasta machine to make dozens of spoons in a few minutes!
Topping suggestions:
Cob-style guacamole: Avocado, corn kernals, red pepper, purple cabbage, extra virgin olive oil, salt and lemon
Grilled Thai Mushroom Salsa. Place a small leafy green on the spoon first to prevent the spoon going soggy if not eating immediately.
Roy, from the Edible Spoon Company is giving one lucky SPW reader the chance to win a spoon making kit! To enter, just leave a comment here with what toppings you would love to put on the spoons (the winner will be randomly chosen).
Giveaway is open worldwide. Closes 6th May 2012. T&Cs here. Giveaway now closed.
Don’t fancy your chances of winning? Kits can be bought from Roy’s site here, for £17.99 £19.99 including shipping worldwide!
