BUFFALO CHICKEN AND RANCH SLAW SALAD

We’re getting a little trashy today! Buffalo chicken for the win. I love love love spicy things and buffalo chicken wings are the bomb. But they’re also not great for you… So I’ve tried to lighten things up a little here with a baked, not fried version of them. And they’re not wings, because I figured they weren’t going to be easy to eat in a salad bowl and this is essentially a ridiculous chicken salad.

ZUCCHINI, CHILLI AND GARLIC LINGUINI

This is one of my simple go to pastas that you don’t need a whole lot of ingredients or time to make. I make it almost every week at the moment, or whenever I have zucchini that needs using up. It’s simple, tasty and quick – everything I want in a mid week pasta dish.

It’s still salad weather so I’m going to keep posting new takes on chicken salads, because I love them.  This one is nice and simple with a really fresh zingy dressing.

ZUCCHINI PAPPARDELLE WITH BOLOGNESE SAUCE (FRUCTOSE FRIENDLY)

One day I’m eating like a vegan and the next it’s time for some meat. I basically like to eat everything. I also love that bolognese is such a good vehicle for getting some extra vegetables into a pasta dish. This rendition takes it one step further and uses ribbons of zucchini instead of pasta. Thus, it’s a low carb meal full of vegetables and lean protein – win!

The whole making things easier for people when it comes to cooking healthier food is totally my vibe this year.

So this week I’ve reworked my favourite chicken Teriyaki bowls… and made them vegetarian because it’s a good idea to eat more plants!
