Jamie Johnson, Youth Education Officer at the Vegetarian Society said, “We want to celebrate top quality veggie cooking and highlight the talent and good practice that is alive and kicking within the UK. We’re looking for original recipes that demonstrate the best of vegetarian cooking, using as many seasonal ingredients as possible. Recipes will be judged on taste, originality and practicality by an expert panel from the Vegetarian Society. The best recipes will be showcased in future catering guides and on our websites and, of course, there will be prizes. we’ve got two Kenwood smoothie makers as well as two °Cordon Vert Kids in the Kitchen cookery courses to give away!”
