Pressed Picnic Sandwiches (Vegetarian)

These pressed picnic sandwiches keep really well in the fridge for several days. Perfect for picnics you can fill them with what-ever you fancy. For vegetarians we love plant-based deli meats, charred peppers, a soft cheese and loads of rocket dressed in balsamic. For vegan friends sub the cheese for a marinated tofu or crispy maple carrots (see this recipe its the bomb!). 

Vegan Christmas Star Gingerbread Garland

Perfect as presents for friends, teachers, your own table or Christmas tree, these gorgeous garlands ooze rustic charm and taste fabulous too. You could also mix it up with some different shapes like Christmas Trees, Angels, or Gingerbread-Men. For these larger shapes use ribbon , and thread using two holes 'button' style.

Christmas Strudel

Ahh the Strudel, it's perfect anytime, but especially at Christmas. We've opted for a traditional apple filling here, but there are many wonderful variations ranging from sweet cherry, Christmas pudding,  to Sicilian fig & spice. The pastry you choose is really up to you as ready-made puff pastry or short crust work beautifully, though serious cooks, may prefer trying their hand at the art of traditional strudel pastry which is “stretched” so thinly that you could almost read a newspaper through it. Which ever way you choose make it,  we hope you enjoy creating your own Strudel tradition.
