Chrissi Hi and welcome back.
I hope you all had a lovely safe and happy Christmas and are enjoying the long weekend.

I am spending the time relaxing with my husband and resting at home before back to work between Christmas and New Year. I hope you are resting and relaxing during this time.
I always find I overindulge at Christmas and never end up eating as much veggies as I would like. Anyone else like me? I find it gets to the 27th December and all I am craving is spicy Chilli and Vegetables.
I created this recipe for my brother-in-law who is a vegetarian and obsessed with spicy food and found myself loving it too. Even my meat loving husband enjoyed this spicy dish.
To make the Chilli, I simply make a batch of my Easy Tomato Sauce which you can find on my blog here. I find myself reaching for this recipe every week and has become a solid staple in our house. I love how easy it can be adapted from a simple pasta sauce to bases for my go-to recipes including chilli and Bolognese and more.
After that, I grate carrots, red peppers and courgette and them to a pan of: diced mushrooms and diced onion. Fry on a low heat for 5-10 minutes until softened before adding the tomato sauce. Add the spices (salt, pepper, chilli, basil and garlic) before cooking on a low heat for 20 minutes.
I serve mine with rice but you can always add to jacket potatoes, chips or pasta. Such a simple dish but perfect for making sure you are eating healthily.
I love how this recipe is gluten free, dairy free and vegetarian. If you re-create it, please let me know on Instagram by tagging me on Instagram using #livingcoeliac or by sharing photos directly to my Facebook Page.
I hope you have loved all the blog posts this year. I have loved sharing new and different recipes with you. Have a very Happy New Year and stay safe.
I will be back next Sunday for more foodie blog posts. If there are any recipes you would like to see or reviews, please email me and let me know.
