    Hi olly,

    I'll probably not win any awards anytime soon with my cooking skills, but it's kept me alive so far :)

    I found Dino Sarma's recipes helpful because he uses basic ingredients, and breaks it down for people like me. His podcast has some basics too, like how to cook pasta - http://archive.org/details/BeginnerCookingPasta - I've done that millions of times, but with his advice, now I feel like I can get much better results.

    This is a recipe that Dino just started telling me about in chat here on ARZone one day - I put the amounts and ingredients at the top (hope it's easy enough to convert to metric). It makes a huge amount like for maybe 4-6 people, so if it's just one or two people, I'd recommend cutting everything in half.

    His blog is http://altveg.blogspot.com/

    I have an easy time finding these things in the grocery store, but I'm curious to hear about Glasgow.

    Michelle - i really enjoy it, was the best thing i ever did. have to say im not that good with the cooking / food side of things so having to cook for my self has been a bit hard, but am geting there, i think.... meeting outher vegas was hard at first but since i moved from the countryside to Glasgow have met a lot. 


    may be of interest if anyone is a student :)

    Nava Atlas has a book called Vegan Express - LINK - I've had it for at least a year and still haven't made a recipe from it (just so you see how lazy I really am) - she made the recipes and wrote the book while raising two teenagers and working on a thesis (after a 27 year break from college) - so everything is geared to be quick and easy. 
    I'll make one of them soon, and put it to the test. Meanwhile you can check out her website for lots of info.
