This is a real family favourite. You can mix up the greens to whatever the family enjoy. It’s also super quick and easy. It’s high in protein with a chicken breast per serving. The edamame beans will also add a little more protein. i feel it doesn’t need any extra carbs - but you could serve with a little brown rice if needed.
A vegetarian one pot is such a great versatile dish for a midweek nourishing evening meal, with leftovers for the next day. Meat of choice can be added if wanted or needed. This is a super quick and easy to put together with everyday fridge and cupboard staples. Any curry powder will do and you can modify and tweak to suit your family’s preference. You can also add / hide more veggies in there depending on what you’ve got available.
Turkey mince is a wonderful lean and affordable meat to use. It can be very blend and therefore has to be dressed! This burger is so tasty and easy to make ahead. This could also be made into meatballs and used in a ramen bowl. Fresh ginger, coriander, lime and spring onions are a match made in heaven. Add a little chilli if you like it hot.
This chicken recipe is fabulous for so many reasons; the chicken and marinade quick and easy to make and you make as much of this as you like for dinner and cook extra for a couple of lunches. It can be eaten hot with fluffy rice, sweetcorn, a little mango avocado salsa or cold with green leaves and colourful chopped veggies or crudités. My son also pointed out he would serve it in a wrap with guacamole, salad, tomatoes and red onions! You’ve got to try it!
With December's festivities approaching, we're all starting to think about changing things up a bit and bringing the best seasonal ingredients together with warming spices and flavours. As we do truly love our rainbow food, red cabbage and apples are just perfect and will accompany game meat, real butcher's sausages, gammon or a Sunday roast perfectly.
I think I'm a little bit obsessed with these air fryer salmon bites! they’re such an easy and tasty salmon recipe that produces perfectly tender, bite-sized pieces of salmon for a quick midweek supper or to add to your bowls for a quick lunch on busy work or studio days!
They can be eaten hot or cold so they are great to make ahead!
We all need a quick, easy and tasty pasta bowl in our repertoire. This is a balanced dish that you can prepare in 20mins. Prawns are a fabulous source of lean protein also low in calories.
As I don’t tolerate gluten I have tried countless pasta alternatives to wheat and these brown rice pasta by Freee Foods is the best for texture and the closest to standard pasta in my experience.
This dish is a crowd pleaser for sure. I serve with a side salad.
Who doesn’t love a one pan meal? This one is balanced, heart warming, family friendly and high in protein. It can be reheated. All you need to add is a side or two of seasonal veggies. Or for the tricky eaters, hide even more veggies in there!
One pan recipes are not just great at reducing the washing up they’re perfect for food prep and batch cooking! Tis recipe will take you just under an hour from start to finish.
My children scored this a 9.2/10 - and said it would have been 9.8 without the chard! Spinach can be used or other greens if your family aren’t keen on kale either. I have mentioned the brands of harissa paste and chickpeas as these are really good brands that make such a difference to the overall dish. See tip below for protein content of the dish.
A really quick and easy baked chicken recipe. Marinating the chicken thighs in yoghurt and spices makes it really tender. You could cook this in either an air fryer or oven. I allow 2 chicken thighs per person - but adapt for different portion sizes as needed.
If you’re after a simple high protein meal, this asian inspired omelette with prawns is the easiest most fabulous lunch or brunch for 2, or even a quick midweek dinner. All the flavours of Asian cooking and packed with nourishing protein and portions of veggies! Serve with a side salad, stir fried pack choi or brown rice if higher carbs needed.
Sardines are one of the most non-dairy, nutrient dense forms of calcium with a 135g tin usually containing 363mg of calcium. Choose a good quality tin of sardines with the bones. I like the brands Parmentier or King Oscar. This lunch contains a whopping 561.5mg of calcium to show you just how easy it is to incorporate calcium in a non-dairy way to your diet. See tip below for calcium amounts of other ingredients.
You can’t beat a creamy chicken and this one is dairy free as well as being gluten free and low carb. It’s quick and easy and low washing up with just one pan used. I use the handy little 240ml pot of chicken stock from Osso which I get from WellEasy so reduced in price from the supermarkets. I also get my coconut milk from there.
These asparagus and sweetcorn fritters make a fabulous brunch and can be made ahead. They are also a great lunch alongside a salad. They are very versatile and can be eaten cold, added to a lunch box or picnic. Add a poached or fried egg and that’s good for anytime of day to fuel or refuel. Very handy for picnics and kids savoury snack.
A Moroccan inspired one-pot, packed with veggies, flavour and lots of protein. The lamb meatballs are very quick to make and I would recommend to make extra as they are delicious hot or cold and can be added to a lunch or salad the next day. Do not be put off by the long list of ingredients as they all go in together and make this one pot dish a great healthy recipe to make over and over.
You can still enjoy a vegetarian version of the classic bolognese sauce. I use a lentil pasta which is high in protein (100g = 26g of protein) for added satiety. The addition of rosemary and balsamic vinegar are essential to the moreishness of the dish so don’t leave out. For a low-carb option you could serve with courgette or cauliflower rice.
This is a very versatile vegetarian dish. you can add more chilli if you like heat and can change the beans around to whatever you have or use chickpeas instead. Did I also mention it’s super quick to make and can be on the table in less than 30 minutes. Makes a warming lunch or even an evening meal. Can serve on its own or with a slice of crisp sourdough.
A perfect quick, easy and very tasty chicken one tray. I typically make this midweek in the evening, but it also makes a perfect no-fuss Sunday lunch for those not wanting to spend hours in the kitchen!
You can add different vegetables but fennel is so tasty and goes brilliantly with chicken and herbs. All round comfort food.
A perfect quick, easy and very tasty one pan salmon packed with flavours. Main ingredients are very simple but elevated but a gorgeous harissa and tahini dressing which would also work with chicken. You can swap the vegetables with the seasons too. Easy to make for 2 or for a larger crowd. It is nutritious enough to serve on its own, but would work well served with lentils, brown rice or quinoa.
