i have decided to begin a series of “collection” posts, themed around certain interests of mine, namely: food, illustration, design, packaging, the great outdoors, literature etc. i have such caches of internet-scrounged images that inspire and motivate me on a daily basis, so i thought why not share them. who knows: someone might be out there needing a little dose of visual stimulation?
i am starting off with most everyone’s favourite: food. i recently became (and trust me i do cringe at how pretentious it sounds) a pescetarian – meaning i eat only fish and seafood as my source of “meat”, other than that it is vegetarian all the way. so here is a collection of vegetarian/pescetarian recipes i have been hoarding…
vegetable fritter salad
sweet potato veggie burger
wintery vietnamese spring rolls
white bean burgers with sundried tomatoes and rosemary
lentil meatballs with lemon pesto
zucchini & ricotta pancakes
browned butter mushroom panini
salmon with quinoa and toasted seeds
egg, avocado & arugula breakfast sandwich
tuna sandwich with coconut & cilnatro
peri-peri pumpkin with haloumi on a sweet couscous salad

Although I don’t believe ice-cream should be restricted to just seaside summer snacking (I could eat a bowl of italian ice-ceam whilst scantily clad, standing in a blizzard and still love it!), I cannot deny the sentiments of the above poster!
