A perfect quick, easy and very tasty chicken one tray. I typically make this midweek in the evening, but it also makes a perfect no-fuss Sunday lunch for those not wanting to spend hours in the kitchen!
You can add different vegetables but fennel is so tasty and goes brilliantly with chicken and herbs. All round comfort food.
A perfect quick, easy and very tasty one pan salmon packed with flavours. Main ingredients are very simple but elevated but a gorgeous harissa and tahini dressing which would also work with chicken. You can swap the vegetables with the seasons too. Easy to make for 2 or for a larger crowd. It is nutritious enough to serve on its own, but would work well served with lentils, brown rice or quinoa.
A lovely warm salad that will take you through from Autumn to Spring. I used a jar of Brindisa chickpeas but these can be substituted with tinned to keep the cost down. I have used raw beetroot that I have grated. However you could use a pouch of ready steamed beetroot that is now available from supermarkets.
This dressing is an excellent addition to salads and veggie platters. It’s creamy with the earthy and nuttiness of tahini - accentuated by the ginger and lime. It’s great for vegans and post-menopausal women worried about their calcium intake as tahini is a good source of calcium.
Falafels are one of my favourite “street foods”. I first discovered them when was quite young travelling with my family in Israel. They are also a staple of Lebanese cuisine that I love so much. I have tried many ways to make them and recently read about making them using dry chickpeas rather than tinned and so I thought I’d share. Falafels are versatile, nourishing, and full of plant based protein goodness. Perfect for your vegetarian friends! The tahini dressing is simple, creamy and tasty.
