Recipes inspired by Pokémon
I've grown up playing Pokemon since Primary School and have stuck with it. My favourites include Luxray, Zweilous, Lairon, Decidueye, Cutiefly and Seismitoad. As they continue to make more Pokemon (currently at over 800), I like to learn about the abilities and evolutions of each. Forming inspiration from each of these Pokemon has helped me to create the following recipes.
Luxray Lightning Lasagne
My absolutely favourite Pokemon, Luxray gets my absolutely favourite meal. I've never been able to cook the perfect lasagne but this recipe comes close!
Guacamole Hawlucha Pasta
Wrestling between Mexican and Italian, this Guacamole Pasta brings out the colours found in Hawlucha's appearance!
Creamy Foongus Risotto
Inspired by the Mushroom Pokémon that looks like a Pokéball, Foongus. This Mushroom Risotto recipe is vegan and gluten-free!
Sableye Pearl and Gem Greens
Using ingredients that use crystals in their names, here's the recipe for a great packed lunch idea inspired by the Pokémon Sableye.
