This salad is so morish and fresh. Full of flavour and textures it’s basically everything a salad should be. The creamy yoghurt based dressing and the crunchy spiced chickpea croutons are winners you’ll be using in all your salad bowls.
AVOCADO AND CUCUMBER SUSHI BOWL
I love sushi but in all honestly I never make it at home, I prefer to be a lazy person and just put all the ingredients into a bowl and eat that. Well I’m making my own food so I guess that’s not super lazy…
BREAKFAST TACOS WITH NECTARINE AND AVOCADO SALSA
This is a surprisingly easy breakfast or lunch as scrambled eggs take no time at all to prep. It’s also fresh and tasty and has protein, omega 3’s, vegetables and fruit in it – a super well rounded meal!
HARISSA AND AVOCADO CHICKEN BURGER
Spicy and lean chicken burgers make for a super easy any night of the week dinner. Full of protein, extra vegetables in the sauce and omega 3’s from the avocado. You can also serve them with some parsnip fries and a simple salad for a really well rounded meal.
PITA CHIP VEGETARIAN ‘NACHOS’
Confession: these aren’t really nachos. They aren’t made using corn chips because when they craving took I only had some slightly less than fresh pita bread on hand. I hate waste so wanted to use it and these were born from what was in my fridge/pantry. The perfect lazy, waste free dinner and so delicious I made them 3 times in a week.
LOTUS ROOT FRITTER WRAPS WITH PERSIMMON SALSA AND AVOCADO
I’ve seen a few pics on Instagram lately of lotus root fritters. I’ve never tried them, but they looked so good and crispy and crunchy so I thought I’d give them a shot. So glad I did, a new favourite lunch was born in these wraps.
PRAWN TOSTADAS
Well hey there summer! Time for long nights sharing food with friends in the evening sun – and these are just perfect for that. The fresh prawns, creamy avocado and sweet corn are amped up with a little chilli and lime to make for a super tasty snack or starter. As a bonus they’re super easy to make too.
HEALTHY LUNCHES, ZERO PREP
These lunches are aimed at people who have a work kitchenette and actually get a lunch break – but have limited time for lunch prep outside of work. Or, like me, maybe some days you’re just not that organised and need something you can throw together at the start of lunch that’s more nutritious than two minute noodles (and isn’t a tuna salad).
BREAKFAST SALAD
This makes for a fantastic grab and go, pre prepped for your morning rush breakfast solution. Yes salad is your breakfast solution. Because it’s acceptable to eat salad at all other times of the day so why not breakfast? I know fruit salad is a breakfast staple but I don’t really like fruit salad. It makes me think of nasty hotel breakfast buffets or syrupy concoctions. This is a savoury salad, full of greens and they typical things you might eat for breakfast – just in a salad.
BREAKFAST PIZZA
Simple, fun and nutritious breakfasts are where it’s at. This recipe ticks all those boxes. Loaded with omega 3’s from the salmon and avocado and with the added benefit of a serving of vegies at breakfast it’s got a lot of good things going for it.
