I served this dish alongside my attempt at toad in the hole. The toad in the hole still needs a little work on it, I haven’t quite mastered Yorkshire pudding yet, but the red cabbage was delicious. The combination of ingredients was inspired from a …
I’ve made this stew a couple of times now, once using butter beans for my carbohydrate source and the other using sweet potato. They were both really delicious. It’s up to you which you choose to use. If you go with butter beans, add them …
Inspired by the Indian cookery lesson I did the other month through Sense Adventures, my take on the Goan prawn curry recipe I learned includes extra vegetables. Goa is on the southwest coast of India. The cuisine of the region makes good use of the …
This is a simple and nutritious vegetarian salad that is also very filling and satisfying. It is high in protein, thanks to the combination of eggs, chickpeas and almonds. Yes the eggs, almonds and olive oil make it quite high in fat, but it is …
I serve this colourful and nutritious salad with grilled turkey for my protein source, but it will pair perfectly with many other protein choices as well, including salmon, chicken, halloumi or trout. The orange mustard dressing really lifts the flavour of the meal while still …
This recipe was inspired by one on BBC Good Food. I swapped broccoli for spinach so that I could keep it all in one pan and save on the washing up. You do need a food processor or blender for this one to make the …
This is a quick and simple, high protein, vegetarian meal. It is extremely tasty and filling. Ideally you need a food processor but you could just very finely slice the kale and herbs yourself if you don’t have one. This would be a lot more …
This is a bowl of nutritious goodness that is great for days when you feel like you have over indulged and are in need of something healthy. It is filling and balanced enough to be served on its own but can be bulked out with …
This tagine can be either made on the hob or in a slow-cooker. The venison can be swapped for beef if you prefer, and the pumpkin can be replaced with butternut squash. The apricots give sweetness, balancing out the spices and the flaked almonds add …
I do love a Thai curry. It’s amazing how many different vegetables work really well in one. This uses pumpkin, kale and green beans. The key is to cook the pumpkin long enough that it starts to soften and absorb the flavours of the coconut …
This is a substantial salad that is great on a miserable autumnal evening. The mint dressing keeps it fresh, the pomegranate adds pops of sweetness and the wild rice gives it a lovely nutty texture. Basmati rice would work if you are short on time, …
I’ve made a couple of versions of this recipe in the past but using butternut squash instead of pumpkin. Either work well, so use whichever you prefer. Roasting is another really delicious way to cook pumpkin and its mild, sweet flavour works really well with …
