    Cream of broccoli (dairy-free)

    Cream of broccoli (dairy-free)

    Vegan style stuffed aubergines

    I really hesitated before writing “vegan” in the title as it can really throw some people out. I understand, I have one of them at home, called my husband, and I often lie to him first before telling him what is in the dish. For him, that evening, as he was guessing the ingredients, we…
