How was everyone’s February? Yep, that’s right it’s almost the end of another month! 8 meal plans so far this year and I’m not running out of ideas yet! We’ve got crunchy golden eggplant, delicately poached chicken and a vibrantly green noodle bowl or two.

PB + J CHIA PUDDING

A super simple make ahead breakfast that will put a smile on your face in the morning. I love peanut butter in both sweet and savoury dishes, and this slightly sweet dessert is given a nutty protein kick with a good dollop of roasted peanut butter.

THAI RED CURRY BEEF STIR FRIED NOODLES

   My new thing is using curry pastes and a little stock or coconut cream to create the flavour and sauce. It’s so quick and easy and packs a huge flavour punch! You can make your own paste and freeze in portions or keep in the fridge if you plan on using it quickly, or just buy one. So many options to make your life tasty, healthy and easy.

ONE PAN CHICKEN THIGHS WITH MOZZARELLA, TOMATO, CHICKPEAS AND BASIL

I love meals that only take one dish to make! Less cleaning up, more time for me. This dish is full of flavour and delicious ingredients. The stretchy golden mozzarella on top and the fresh basil are a classic for a reason.

VEGAN EGGPLANT KATSU CURRY

    Eggplant is such an amazing vegetable, it’s texture changes so much depending on the amount of heat applied. With lots of quick heat, like in this dish it becomes soft and creamy. The katsu crumb is the perfect thing to hold it all together and the spice laced curry sauce brings the extra flavour it needs. This is a delicious dinner and it just happens to be vegan.

MEAL PLANS WEEK 7

 

Hello Sunday!!! It’s time to relax, potter, adventure and maybe do a little planning for the week ahead. This week I’ve got two delicious meal plans for you as per usual. One vegetarian, one for the omnivores. There’s a variety of flavour, from the spicy to the mild and from the trashy (buffalo chicken say what?!) to the slightly unusual (can I call it a meatball when there’s no meat in it???). I hope you love the plans!

BANANA BUZZ SMOOTHIE

     My current obsession. It’s the perfect breakfast in a hurry (or post work out snack) and you don’t have to make it look all pretty. Just pour it into a portable cup or bottle and run out the door. It’s the quickest way to get your morning coffee and breakfast in one go.

ZUCCHINI AND LENTIL SALAD WITH PECORINO AND SPINACH YOGHURT SAUCE

This simple summer salad can be a side or a full meal. I love having it with a couple of soft boiled eggs on top for lunch – so delicious I kind of want to lick the plate. Maybe have, this is a safe private place for my confessions right?  It’s really easy to throw together and tastes delicious.

BUFFALO CHICKEN AND RANCH SLAW SALAD

We’re getting a little trashy today! Buffalo chicken for the win. I love love love spicy things and buffalo chicken wings are the bomb. But they’re also not great for you… So I’ve tried to lighten things up a little here with a baked, not fried version of them. And they’re not wings, because I figured they weren’t going to be easy to eat in a salad bowl and this is essentially a ridiculous chicken salad.

ZUCCHINI, CHILLI AND GARLIC LINGUINI

This is one of my simple go to pastas that you don’t need a whole lot of ingredients or time to make. I make it almost every week at the moment, or whenever I have zucchini that needs using up. It’s simple, tasty and quick – everything I want in a mid week pasta dish.
