Turkey pesto in pepper cups

Turkey mince is a great lean source of protein that it’s a regular favourite in the shopping basket. I often make a turkey and vegetable chilli, but wanted to find alternative recipes for the turkey. This is fantastic for all those pesto lovers out there. You can use the filling separately without stuffing into the peppers if you think your family would prefer - I just find it a bit beige without the colourful peppers.

Spicy chickpea & butternut squash soup

Butternut squash is one of our favourite winter ingredient as it is so versatile, colourful and filling with its high fibre content. Good quality chickpeas are essential to make this soup insanely smooth and creamy. Ras el Hanout if you don’t know it is an excellent blend of spices bringing warmth without being too “hot” spicy. Very very simple comfort food at its best. Even better if you make double and keep for another lunch or evening.

Chocolate protein porridge with berries

I find that a lot of clients love a bowl of porridge in the morning during the colder months. However, If they train with me and even on days they don’t it makes for a breakfast a little too low in protein, so I have just revisited a classic chocolate berry combo and added a nice clean lean protein powder. It is a balanced breakfast perfect to fuel your day pre workout.

Oats & greek yoghurt berry bake

This bake is pretty much a breakfast bowl! Goodness and fibre of the oats, greek yoghurt for the protein and all the berries because we love them so much! It is super simple and can be eaten cold or slightly warmed up with an extra spoonful of yoghurt, almond butter and seeds! You must give it a try! Perfect for a lunch box too.

Miso chicken with cauliflower rice

A really quick chicken dish perfect for midweek meals. The sauce is so delicious that you’ll be licking your plate clean with this one. I serve with cauliflower rice to increase the veg and to keep the carbs down - but you can replace with brown rice or quinoa if you prefer. We buy cauliflower rice frozen which is easy to prepare and serve.

Pressure cooker ginger porridge

This is the perfect autumnal warming breakfast! Done using a pressure cooker, it is easy, quick and cost efficient. Made with steel cut oats, this porridge is full of texture, nuttiness and warmth we all crave during colder months. It is a balanced breakfast perfect to fuel a day at school or pre workout.

10 quick & healthy courgette/zucchini recipes

For anyone that grows their own or has family that grows their own vegetables you will be very familiar with how quickly you can suddenly have far too many courgettes (or zucchini as it's known in the States and Australia) to deal with! A couple of years ago I planted for too many courgette plants and I was making everything with courgettes in from cakes to hummus to curries and salads. Well you'll be pleased to know that lots of our recipes contain courgette and here we've compiled them all in one place just for you. The only thing that's missing from the recipes below is a courgette cake - but don't worry we're working on one!!

roasted summer veg and lentil salad

Roasted summer vegetables with puy lentils is such a delicious combination. I served with halloumi - but it’s equally as delicious with feta cheese. This is a great recipe if you are looking to use up some courgette from a glut. This salad can be served without the halloumi for a delicious side to a BBQ.

Red kidney bean and lentil salad bowl

Eating more pulses is such a great way to increase fibre in your diet. They also contain protein so this salad will easily keep you full until your next meal. We use Puy lentils for this recipe as they don’t require soaking and hold their shape well in salads. For ease you can buy ready cooked Puy lentils from Merchant Gourmet.

Greek style chickpea salad bowl

This Greek style salad bowl is a budget friendly crowd pleaser. It’s perfect made ahead for lunch boxes, taking to work etc… It’s also such a quick one to make and bring along to those summer BBQs to serve alongside grilled meats. Perfect balance of mediterranean flavours, healthy plants and fats.
