This is an excellent clean out the fridge salad and a great way to use the ends of a loaf of bread. The golden crunchy bread, sweet roasted capsicum, refreshing cucumber and crispy cauliflower are a delicious combination and the dressing is really next level.
Quick Broccoli, Lemon and Almond Pasta
This pasta dish is quick, satisfying and the perfect light dinner or for lunch. You could easily add your protein of choice but I love it as a vegetarian meal. You’re getting some protein from the almonds and cheese any way and a great vegetarian option would be using a pulse pasta.
Cauliflower, Bocconcini and Balsamic Flatbread
Golden cauliflower roasted until it’s crispy and nutty tops just melted bocconcini and is then drizzled with a balsamic glaze for a sweet and sharp finish. A handful of parsley and parmesan salad to finish and you’ve got a yummy vegetarian flatbread.
Summer Chickpea Salad with Feta
This chickpea salad is the perfect thing to top avocado toast, have along side grilled meat or fish, or just eat for lunch along with some soft boiled eggs. I also love it as part of a mezze spread.
Green Bean and Sugar Snap Pea Salad with Fennel and Feta Dressing
This salad is fresh and simple, the dressing has a tiny hint of spice and the natural herbaciousness (is that a word?!) of the fennel seeds that pairs really wonderfully with the zesty lemon and salty feta. Serve it as pictured with soft boiled eggs for extra richness – or without as a simple side salad.
Hummus with Slow Roasted Tomato and Pomegranate Salad
I know, another hummus recipe, I’m so basic. This is a vegetarian take on the chicken salad one I posted last week and don’t complain because hummus is life and you can never have too much!
Gnocchi in a Rich Eggplant, Tomato and Basil Sauce
This recipe is all about that sauce combining with the tender potato gnocchi. And wow that sauce. It’s full of deep umami rich flavour thanks to the sweet and sticky sundried tomatoes and sherry. And full of freshness form the basil. The ability of the eggplant to soak up flavour is what really make sit. Along with a good lug of extra virgin olive oil.
Broccoli, Hemp and Pepita Pesto Pasta
This pesto pasta is full of good goodness and has a protein boost from the hemp seeds. You could serve it with a poached egg for even more protein and richness but’s it’s satisfying just as it is.
7 Ways With: Pumpkin
It’s the second post in the 7 ways series and one I’m excited about! 7 Ways With… Pumkpin! So my North American Readers might be more into pumpkin as a pie filling and I’m all for using it in sweet things but I feel like it really shines in savoury food. And there’s quite the variety in this little post.
Thyme Roasted Carrot and Goats Cheese Bruschetta
I made this for the first time months ago and have been meaning to retest the recipe forever, and when I found these tri coloured baby carrots and my local market I knew it was time. That said you can easily use whatever carrots you can get your hands on. These babies just look oh so pretty.
