Warming vegetable chilli
I love a good vegetarian meal and this one definitely hits the spot – warming and comforting, it’s the perfect dish for a cold day! Delicious served with rice, on a jacket potato or with a simple side salad.
Pasta, Recipes
Peasants’ pasta
This is my take on the classic Italian dish ‘pasta e fagioli’ (or pasta with beans); it is an Italian dish originally for the poor as it is made with inexpensive ingredients. Bursting with flavour and goodness, this dish can be either served as a soup or as a pasta dish… just add more or less pasta depending on which you prefer!
Recipes, Vegetarian
Halloumi traybake with flatbreads
I love a traybake and I love halloumi so this is the perfect meat-free recipe for me!
Chicken, Recipes
Pesto chicken stew with cheesy dumplings
This dish is a real crowd pleaser! The dumplings are light and fluffy and the pesto adds a delicious flavour that everyone loves. Easy to make and all in one pot so minimal washing-up!
Pasta, Recipes, Vegetarian
Pesto pasta with a healthy twist
My kids love pesto pasta but it has to be a healthy version packed with nutrients, colour and texture. I always use whole-wheat pasta and I sometimes make my own pesto (*see the recipe) but time doesn’t always allow for homemade so I always have a jar in the cupboard!
Recipes, Vegetarian
Butternut squash with feta and pomegranate
A wonderful lunch or a brilliant dinner party dish.
egg, Fish, Recipes
Mackerel fishcakes with spinach and a fried egg
I love a fishcake! These ones are really simple and the addition of a fried egg makes for a tasty and nutritious lunch or dinner! Making mashed potato isn’t my favourite past-time, so I will often make extra and freeze (or make up my fishcakes to step 6 and freeze them).
Curry, Recipes, Vegetarian
Spinach and red pepper chana masala
A twist on the classic chana masala – I love the addition of extra veggies as they add a splash of colour and a good dose of goodness.
Beef, Pasta, Recipes
Half and half lasagne with a side salad
A twist on the classic and a great way of reducing the amount of red meat in your diet! The recipe uses half the amount of mince and adds a tin of green lentils – a cheaper, healthier, more sustainable option that doesn’t compromise on taste!
