I decided to make a youtube video to show people what I like to eat in a day. I'm obsessed with watching these kinds of videos and hopefully this will be the first of many.

'Cheezy' Tagliatelle with Spinach

Wednesday 3 June 2015


This recipe is creamy and full of flavour. It's perfect if you're missing cheese or fancy making something inexpensive and delicious.

Ingredients:

  • 50g tagliatelle
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • 1 tbsp vegan margarine
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp sun dried tomato paste
  • 25g fresh spinach
  • 100g soy/almond milk
  • the juice of 1 unwaxed lemon
  1. In a frying pan, stir together the margarine and flour until it creates a yellow paste. Stir in a quarter of the soy/almond milk, slowly. Add in the lemon juice and season with pepper.
  2. Meanwhile, cook the tagliatelle according to packet instructions
  3. Stir in the sun dried tomato paste to the 'cheese' mixture and continue to add the rest of the milk slowly. Stir constantly.
  4. When the tagliatelle is cooked, drain and set aside.
  5. Add the spinach to the cheese mixture and cook for 1 minute.
  6. Mix together the tagliatelle to the cheese mixture and remove from the heat/ Mix until well combined then serve.

How I did the maths:

  • 500g tagliatelle costs 85p in Sainsburys. We're using 10% of this, so this is 8.5p. Rounded up to 9p.
  • flour + margarine + pepper = roughly 5p
  • sun dried tomato paste costs £1.50 for 90g. We're using roughly 5g. This is 1/20 so this costs roughly 8p.
  • 100g fresh spinach costs £1 in sainsburys. We're using 1 quarter. = 25p
  • Almond milk costs £1.70 for 1l. We are using 1/10 so this is 17p.
  • 1 lemon costs 35p.
All together this recipe costs 99p
