I don’t know about you but I’m a little sandwich obsessed at the moment. This is a Mexican inspired number thus, it’s a ‘torta’. Full of grilled chicken, chipotle mayo, guac, slaw and cheese. It’s a dream.
Mexican Style Chicken Torta
Roast Carrot and Honey Glazed Haloumi Salad
Oh this salad. This salad is just such a delightful time. The textures and flavours basically sing and I just can’t stop eating it.
Lentil Salad with Baked Feta and Tomato
After watching so many people make the viral baked feta and tomato dish that Liemessa started making, I knew that this was one food trend I wanted to get involved in. I mean I love pasta so why not?! But it’s summer and I also love salad, and I’ve been weirdly craving lentils. So this happened instead. All the flavours of that pasta but in a lentil salad. It’s so good. I still love the pasta version too though!
Soy and Sesame Roasted Cauliflower Salad with Quinoa and Green Tahini Dressing
This one is totally inspired by one of my favourite lunch bowls at Tinker but it’s a simpler version you can make at home without having to create loads of components. I add nuts to it for extra protein but you could add fish, chicken, an egg or tofu if your tummy is really growling.
Lentil, Kale and Haloumi Salad
This easy and delicious salad is made even better with sautéed leek. It’s a serves one recipe but you easy double it or more.
Pumpkin, Sundried Tomato and Haloumi Pie
I love a pie in winter. Flakey pastry encasing a delicious savoury filling – it’s my favourite. And yep I’m much more into a savoury pie than a sweet one and I totally get that a savoury pumpkin pie problem sets alarm bells off for any North American followers. But in this part of the world pumpkin is a savoury thing, thus my savoury pumpkin pie.
Simple Red Lentil Dahl
I have lots of lovely dahl recipes on this blog but this one is made with just dry ingredients to flavour it, especially handy when you’re low on fresh ginger, garlic and onion like I was when a curry craving hit.
Smashed Roast Chat Potato Salad
I am oh so into warm crunchy salads at the moment. Tossing roast potatoes with a zesty dressing, tangy goats cheese and fresh vegetables is everything I want to be eating right now. It also has the added benefit of involving me turning the oven on which warms up my chilly kitchen!
Parmesan Crumbed Zucchini Tacos
The crumbed zucchini sticks in these babies are a dream, I’m happy just dipping them in chipotle mayo and calling it a day.
Zucchini and Ricotta Stuffed Pasta Shells
This is a pasta bake that perfectly celebrates the season. Filled with sweet spring zucchini, late season lemon and light ricotta the pasta shells avoid being heavy and are fresh and light. The brightness of passata and melted mozzarella make it a super moreish dish.
