What happens when two writers escape to Mojácar for the weekend?
📚🪭💃🏼💃🏼🍻✍🏼📖🌞🫒🍨🛍️📚🪭💃🏼💃🏼
Yes, there’s writing (book three of the Alba series is finally flowing! 📚) but the real magic happens between the words...

Sunrise chats over coffee, creative breakthroughs over Patatas Bravas, and spontaneous inspiration while wandering jewellery shops (for research, obviously 😆).

Oh - and we definitely didn’t plan for a 6.0 earthquake at sunrise this morning. But hey, plot twist & added drama?

Three years, two books, and countless creative adventures later - I’m reminded that the best stories aren’t just written, they’re lived and experienced.

Today I baked chocolate brownies using a super yummy recipe from my dear friend’s book Waste Not, Want Not in the Kitchen by @albasjournals 🌱📖 @dawnsplantkitchen

I added my own little twist: raspberry jam and apple sauce on top! 🍫🍎✨ Zero waste, full of taste — just the way I like it!
And yes… I might have licked the spoon. Don’t tell anyone. 🙈

Sending cuddly hugs and cake crumbs to all of you 💜

Did you know that bananas are one of the Top 5 wasted food items in Europe?
🍌🗑️ ♻️🍌🗑️♻️🍌🗑️♻️🍌🗑️♻️🍌🗑️♻️🍌
I have a whole section on how to use up overripe bananas in my new cookbook, 'Waste Not, Want Not - In the Kitchen' (available on Amazon now). From banana muffins to nice cream, from mini-pancakes to this delicious banana loaf, the book is packed with tips and ideas to reduce food waste and save you money on your food budget.

From how to store and preserve food to 50 recipe ideas to prevent food being wasted. All of the recipes are plant-based (but can be swapped to vegetarian). Most of the recipes have gluten-free alternatives. In this recipe, I've swapped out the refined sugar for 10 dates, and it's equally delicious and much healthier. Why not pick up a copy today? Link in the bio to Amazon.

Time to break open a copy of Alba's Journal as the weather has cooled down enough to put on the oven!

The lemon tree also has its first fruit 🍋of the season. That means I just 'have to' make my favourite cake: Lemon Olive Oil Cake with a lemon drizzle.

Today I used Teff, Rice & Chickpea flours to make this the fluffiest #glutenfree
#glutenfreerecipes cake.

Both my cookbooks are available on Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/stores/Dawn-Punter/author/B0CN2JZB4S?ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true or see link in bio 🔗

Recycle Week 2024 #recycleweek is a dedicated campaign that aims to raise awareness about the importance of recycling and encourage individuals, communities, and organizations to take action to reduce waste and promote sustainability.

♻️What could be a better budget ingredient than leftovers & food oddments?

♻️Why not start with the remnants in your fridge?

♻️Food destined for the bin, or amazing Leftover Makeovers?

Perfect timing for my new book, 'Waste Not Want Not - In the Kitchen' out now on Amazon - link in my bio.

Spanish Rice (with extra Quinoa as I ran out of Paella Rice 😉)
🥘🧅🫑🥘🍅🍚🥘🧅🫑🥘🍅🍚🥘🧅

Oh well, I thought I had more Bomba rice (used for Paella) in the cupboard, but I didn't have as much as I thought 💭🤔 Therefore I decided to add some quinoa which actually made a delicious blend 🤤

I used the Spanish rice recipe from 'Alba's Journal - Sow Grow Cook Care'. Topped with Grandma's Chickn Tofu (also from the book) Olives, Capers and lemon wedges.

This is seriously my most-used recipe from my new book, "Waste Not, Want Not: In the Kitchen," coming out on Amazon tomorrow!
🍌🍪🎉📖🍌🍪🎁🍌📖📚 🍌🍪🎉📖

Local Spanish bananas are in season at the moment, but with the heat, 🌞 they ripen too quickly.

This recipe is refined sugar-free, gluten-free, and absolutely delicious! Surprisingly, these are made in an air-fryer, saving you on your fuel bills. What could be better?
Not wasting any bananas in this house!

😋 Check out the book on Amazon tomorrow – full of waste reduction ideas and 50 delicious, easy-to-make recipes!

Quinoa Berry Porridge
🍓🍇🫐🍓🍇🫐🍓🍇🫐🍒🍇🫐🍓🍇
With nearly 14g protein this Berry Quinoa Porridge packs a punch. Not only does Quinoa contain more protein than oats, it has nearly half the fat!
An extra benefit is it used up the leftover quinoa I had from yesterday's tabouleh 💪🏼
Guess What?
The recipe is from my new book Waste Not, Want Not - In the Kitchen ... coming September 20 to Amazon!

☕️🥞☕️🥞☕️🥞☕️🥞
Starting the day with vibrant flavours and plant-powered goodness! A vegan feast that fills us with gladness!
