It’s no secret that I love a salad. As soon as I realised you could add grains, nuts, seeds, and roast veg to a salad I became obsessed. And don’t get me started on the dressings. I’m talking homemade dressing of course. My mouth is watering just thinking about all the different possibilities. A creamy, dreamy salad dressing is the perfect way to bring all the flavours and textures of a great salad together. Wait ’till you get a load of my Vegan Caesar Dressing.

It’s been a little while since I’ve shared something around here. I’ve actually tried to write this post at least 4 times – starting way back at the beginning of September. You see, the idea behind my Big Vegan Breakfast was to share something scrumptious for Father’s Day. But every time I thought about blogging, well it all just seemed too much. I think it’s pretty safe to say that pandemic life messed with my creativity.
Yesterday marked our first steps towards a new normal, with a drastic decrease in restrictions. And not a moment too soon. It’s been over 240 days in lockdown for us Melbournians. The longest anywhere in the world. Now that’s a world record I definitely could have lived without! We can now do things like, get a haircut, dine in at restaurants and cafes, and have people over. I found the motivational shift was almost instantaneous. So I’m back friends, to share a recipe with you that’ll knock your socks off! My Big Vegan Breakfast would make the perfect post-lockdown brunch. It’s simple, nutritious, and hella tasty. Okay then, let’s get to it!!

Over the last couple of weeks while Melbourne has been in lockdown I made a promise to myself to eat well. “Don’t you always eat well?” you may ask. Mostly, but it’s easy to be lazy when working from home. This Quinoa and Broccoli Salad was a lunchtime life-saver. Delicious and satisfying, it saved me from snacking all day.
