Thai Noodle Lettuce Wraps (Vegan)

As I spent today making a What I Eat in a Day video for my Youtube Channel (probably going to be next Thursdays video!) I thought I’d quickly write up one of my favourite lunchtime recipes right now. While I'm not the most seasonal of eater (this is such a summer meal!) there are two things you probably need to know about the food I eat if you didn’t know. I like Asian flavours and I eat a plant based. So these lettuce wraps are right up my street! This recipe is actually a variation of one I used to eat when I ate meat based on this Thai Beef Salad recipe I saw on the Londoner years ago.

FFG Travels: Thyme in the Cotswolds

Living in London can cause what I call "concrete jungle madness." One becomes overwhelmed by the walls built up around them. The polluted air filling our lungs and the mad rush of day to day activities becomes cumbersome. An escape is required. Therein lies the reason that the masses retreat to the country as often as physically possible. And over the past decade, the luxury industry has listened as Londoners look for a place to renew themselves with quick weekend breaks. Country estates are being revamped, posh hotels are springing up here, there and everywhere, and the business of the country has in fact become quite the "business." There is truly something for everyone, with every price range imaginable. This weekend I found myself exploring a venue that is not only beautiful, but also...
