Also if anyone has ideas on how to bump up the fibre (without supplements if possible) please leave a comment!

Whilst making the noodles I accidentally added too much black bean paste, so I ended up having to add more noodles and splitting the protein/veg further.
Silver lining: might enjoy a mini pack of smarties tonight instead!
I’ve been practicing my croissants for ages and today I finally got that honeycomb!
The family is overjoyed to enjoy homemade vegan croissants 🥐
I’ve been practicing making croissants using all the tips I’ve read from here and elsewhere online.
Today I decided to go dairy free so my daughter could enjoy them too. And because they were dairy free I decided to go all the way with an egg free glaze, making these croissants vegan 🌱
As luck would have it, I achieved my first honeycomb and am overjoyed!
A huge thank you to everyone here! I couldn’t have done it without your tips and tricks.
