This breakfast bowl is simple to make and loaded with goodness. Quinoa makes the base topped with olive oil sauteed kale, that’s all crisp at the edges, crunchy radish, creamy avocado and the fresh burst of pomegranate. And all finished with some Za’atar to spice things up in the morning.

GOLDEN COCONUT TOFU BUDDHA BOWLS
I haven’t made a buddha bowl in what feels like ages and this was just what I needed. Golden coconut coated tofu, roasted kale and lightly pickled carrot with a creamy avocado and peanut sauce or piled on top of quinoa – perfect.

One pan meals are always a good idea, and this garam masala spiced one is so easy! it’s a quick marinade then throw things in the pan. Even the rice is cooked in there. If you hadn’t noticed I’m all about minimal effort and washing up at the moment and this dish ticks all those boxes. place it tastes YUMMMM!
MOROCCAN SPICED CHICKPEA AND TOMATO SOUP
This is such an easy soup recipe and will keep you feeling warm on these chilly winter days. It can be ready in 30 minutes and is all done in one pot, no blending required. The spices can be adjusted to suit your taste and you can leave out some if you don’t have a well stocked spice cupboard. That said, buy SOME spices though, cos if you don’t know how to flavour your food what are you even doing?!
BANANA BREAD OATS
I have been eating porridge most mornings lately. This is super unusual for me, not because I don’t like porridge, I’m all about it, but because I just don’t eat the same thing multiple mornings in a row. I’ve been changing it up a little bit in terms of porridge flavourings but this is the one that’s been on highest rotation. It’s oats, but it tastes like banana bread so what’s not to like?!

TANDOORI SALMON AND CAULIFLOWER SALAD WITH RAIITA
You all know by now that I’m pretty pro the cauliflower. Especially roasted, the texture is the best: tender on the inside, crispy on the outside. Plus, it’s a magnet for other delicious flavours. It’s so good that you can have this salad without the salmon and it’s still DELICIOUS. But the salmon is amazing too! This is basically the perfect warm winter salad.
PEANUT BUTTER WAFFLES WITH BANANA SOFT SERVE
Waffle Wednesday is back!!! Mostly because I felt like it was time for another waffle recipe! These are excellent for brunch or you can make them a little smaller and have them as a dessert. They’re gluten free and have a great texture too!
