]]> I love this easy to make, vegan, IBS free curry. I struggle with curries when I am eating out as they usually contain way too much onion and garlic for my symptoms. You can add these ingredients to this dish if you know that they don’t affect your IBS symptoms but I have left these out this time around.

If you prefer a carnivore type of curry, then you could easily add chicken to this curry. I have added this as an optional extra.

Vegetable Curry
Servings2 portions
Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time20 minutes
Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Peel and chop the sweet potato into roughly 1 cm cubes. Bring these to boil in a saucepan and cook for 5 - 8 minutes until soft.
  2. Whilst the sweet potato is cooking, shake and empty the can of coconut milk into a large deep pan and add the mixed curry spices (you can use a pre-mixed curry spice if you have no problems with onion or garlic). Stir these through on a gentle heat.
  3. Wash and chop the celery stalks into small pieces and add to the curry sauce. Stir gently. Add the cardamon pods at this point if you are using these.
  4. Whilst the curry sauce is simmering, get your rice on the boil by measuring out 1 cup of rice to 2 cups of water in a sauce pan. Bring to the boil, then cover and simmer for 8 - 10 minutes on a really low heat. Add celery salt (or normal salt) to this.
  5. Your sweet potato should be cooked through by now so drain and add this to the curry sauce mix. Continue to simmer until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.
  6. Once the rice is done, fluff with a fork and serve in a bowl. Add the curry sauce mix. Chop the fresh coriander and garnish and serve. Enjoy this gorgeous, vegan curry dish.
  7. *If adding chicken to this curry, simply brown in a saucepan and leave to one side and then add into the sauce when simmering for 8 - 10 minutes. Checking cooked through before serving.

]]> I love this salsa as a dip with nachos, or as a sauce over home made chips. Or even with pasta on the rare occasion I fancy some.

You can make this recipes as hot and spicy or mild as you prefer just by altering the amount of spices and fresh herbs you add. My tomato salsa varies depending on what I have in the cupboard at the time, sometimes I will use up a leftover tin of sweetcorn and sometimes I will add celery. Just depends what is available, there are no hard and fast rules. Just go with what you have what flavours you like and what you fancy.

]]> This recipe happened by accident, tasted great, was super easy to make and worked well so I thought I would share it with you. Full of great root veg nourishment and warming on a cold day. Can be frozen or kept in the fridge for up to 3 days for future use if you make too much. My advice is to make too much as you will want to try this again!
Chunky Veggie Soup
Servings2 portions
Prep Time5 minutes
Cook Time15 minutes
Passive Time2 minutes
Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Peel and chop the veg into small bite sized chunks. Add in your seasoning (I used paprika, coriander leaf, ginger and pepper as I fancied something hot and spicy and I don't advocate nor like using salt) but you can use whichever herbs or spices you like with this recipe. Have it hot and spicy, or mild and herby. Experiment!
  2. Bring the veg to boil in a saucepan of water, ensuring the veg is covered and them reduce to a simmer until cooked through.
  3. Separate around a quarter of the veg into a bowl. This will be the chunky veg to be added to the rest of the soup once blended.
  4. Blend the rest of the soup using a hand blender in the saucepan until smooth. If you are having bread with your soup then now is a good time to pop it in the toaster.
  5. Add in the oat milk at this point, add in the chunky veg and gently reheat to eat straight away OR box up for future use in the fridge or freezer (this is what I did as I made it at 7 am and ate it for lunch!)

]]> This green juice will stimulate your liver to release more toxins out of your body whilst providing you with much needed nutrients that may not be finding their way into your diet every day.

You will need a juicing machine for this.  You can use a NutriBullet or similar which keeps the fibre in and makes it more of a meal than a drink but in this recipe I prefer the smoother and sweeter consistency of a juice. Plus it is easier to digest and goes straight into the blood stream.

Enjoy the feeling of energy and nourishment that this incredibly powerful green juice will provide you. This can be kept in the fridge for 48 hours but will start to lose some of its potency after 1 hour.

  4. Push the fruit and veg through the juice machine, stir and enjoy

Recipe Notes

Using the right snacks with IBS is important and can be really beneficial. And making your own is really satisfying. Crudite's don't have to be just for dinner parties. I often eat this instead of a lunch if I fancy it.
