The earthy notes, omega 3 rich fish and sharp acid in this recipe are such a delight. And they’re backed up by it just looking so darn pretty. The pomegranate I’ve use dto gasrnish it are completely optional I just had some on hand. But the creamy yoghurt dressing and punchy pickled vegetables are a must.
This is such a show stopping starter and so easy to make. It looks beautiful, and is the perfect moreish salty sweet snack. It would look perfect as a vegetarian Christmas starter thanks to those lovely jewelled tones.
The silly season is upon us so I’ll be putting the every week meal plans on hold for the rest of December and spinning out some special holiday lists. Including this sweet one! Next week you’ll get a full Christmas Menu and then there’s a special grazing table number 😉
This week I’ve been focused on using up any leftover food I had from a few events on the weekend. I’m getting better and better at creating less waste but as anyone who has hosted a dinner party knows, it’s less stressful to voer cater than under cater! This recipe could come in handy at Christmas time too as it’s a great way to use up leftover roast pumpkin. I have included info on how to roast the pumpkin though!
This recipe is all time. I am so proud of it as it’s super delicious and fun. I wouldn’t usually post two meat based recipes in a row as it’s not reflective of how I eat but I just couldn’t wait to share this. I’ve included ideas below to make it vegetarian, you could even make it vegan if you used vegan cheese alternatives. No matter what, it’s delicious.
The weather is warming up and I’m all about it! It means light and punchy salads like this zesty little number.
This is a simple meal that looks a little fancy. You only need to leave the salmon to marinade for half an hour for it to start to take on the flavour so it is also pretty quick! I love the simple cauliflower puree with the salty capers and sharp lemon. Making the lemon and caper sauce with extra virgin olive oil rather than butter also ups the omega 3 situation. Plus it tastes amazing. Win.
I have a very similar soup to this using parsnip on the blog but I’ve actually made it many more times using pumpkin so thought I should really share this recipe too! The roasting garlic and pumpkin fill your house with the most delicious winters smells.
This is a supercharged crumble mix with the addition of loads of fibre and healthy fats thanks to the oats, coconut and golden flaxmeal combination. It’s also perfect to make with frozen berries making it an any time of the year dessert.
I spent many years thinking that tacos were the kind of food I only craved in summer…. this year is proving me wrong especially in the vegetarian tacos game. By roasting winter vegetables you can make a yummy and totally winter appropriate taco. Serve these to a large group as a starter or just between two of you as a yummy meal.
