Rice paper rolls!! It’s almost criminal that I haven’t shared a recipe for rice paper rolls this summer. I love having these as a light dinner and this take on them is super fresh and light, there’s no noodle just loads of colourful vegetables.
Chicken and Mushroom Larb Style Salad Lettuce Cups
This is the perfect light dinner that’s easy to make way more filling with a few little twists. Plus they’re full of way more vegetables than you’d normally get in a larb salad so that’s a win too. It’s sort of like san choi bao but with larb flavours.
Crispy Sesame Chicken Pieces
My tahini obsession has reached new heights recently and this chicken is the best thing to come out of it. I’ve never used tahini to give sesame flavour to Asian dishes before and I have no idea why because it’s amazing. The marinade coating this chicken is insanely tasty and the chicken gets golden and crispy so it’s a very good time.
Sesame, Miso and Ginger One Pot Chicken Ramen
Basically ramen. But I cheated, and made it quick and easy, like almost as easy as 2 minute noodles but full of goodness and yummy nourishing things rather than a weird dehydrated sachet of ‘flavour’. But let’s be honest, I might be trash talking that stuff but I crave it sometimes as it was the comfort food of my childhood and then hangover food of my teenage years and very early twenties. Don’t judge me, just admire how far I’ve come;)
Chicken Parma Burgers with Roasted Tomato and Pesto
I’m not going to sit here and claim that burgers are a health food. Or that schnitzel is. Or that making it with nuts instead of bread crumbs is ‘better’ for you. It does taste so amazing though. This recipe is more about realising that it’s okay to eat whatever it is you want to eat. But if you make the food your craving yourself rather than swinging through a drive through your undoubtedly going to end up eating something far more wholesome and real and that’s worth celebrating. This burger is made from scratch (you could make the rolls if you’re feeling really time rich) using the best quality ingredients you can afford and that makes it super tasty. Just look at all that melted cheese too. Oh my.

Rosemary Chicken, Sweet Potato and Pomegranate Salad with Blue Cheese
That whole gut makeover month really reignited a love of blue cheese for me. And wholesome, hearty salads like this one. Golden chicken breast? Yes please! With sticky sweet potato and all the bitter leaves… yum! All finished with creamy blue cheese that melts onto the warm chicken and vegetables. Now we’re really talking.
Roast Chicken with a Zucchini and Leek Stuffing
I’ve posted a few roast chicken recipes before but this one tastes really different to the others. Stuffing it with the lemony zucchini and leek mixture imparts so much juiciness and flavour. You’re going to love it.
