The non-toxic bipropellent of the present invention contains a non-toxic ergolic miscible fuel (NHMF) and a rocket grade hydrogen peroxide. This non-toxic hypergolic miscible fuel (NHMF) has rapid ignition capability. The non-toxic hypergolic miscible fuel (NHMF) contains 3 species. Namely, a polar organic species miscible with hydrogen peroxide, a propagator, which may be substituted or unsubstituted amines, amides or diamines, and an inorganic metal salt, which reacts to form a catalyst in solution or as a colloid. The inorganic metal salt is miscible with the polar organic species and the propagator in solution. The catalyst has a faster rate of reaction with said rocket grade hydrogen peroxide than the propagator, the propagator has a faster rate of reaction with the rocket grade hydrogen peroxide than the polar organic species, and the polar organic species, propagator and catalyst are mutually soluble.
