All tagged courgette recipe
A vibrant and delicious summer salad. Here is a good example of how to layer your protein. Rather than just use one protein source we have combined butterbeans and quinoa which are also excellent sources of fibre with a hardboiled egg, some feta cheese and pumpkin seeds. The chargrilled vegetables are a perfect Mediterranean touch. Don’t miss out the mint which holds the salad together.
For anyone that grows their own or has family that grows their own vegetables you will be very familiar with how quickly you can suddenly have far too many courgettes (or zucchini as it's known in the States and Australia) to deal with! A couple of years ago I planted for too many courgette plants and I was making everything with courgettes in from cakes to hummus to curries and salads. Well you'll be pleased to know that lots of our recipes contain courgette and here we've compiled them all in one place just for you. The only thing that's missing from the recipes below is a courgette cake - but don't worry we're working on one!!
Roasted summer vegetables with puy lentils is such a delicious combination. I served with halloumi - but it’s equally as delicious with feta cheese. This is a great recipe if you are looking to use up some courgette from a glut. This salad can be served without the halloumi for a delicious side to a BBQ.
The more summer salad bowl options the better. This spicy cauliflower and courgette salad is so rich in flavours and textures. It can be served on its own or as a side with grilled meat or halloumi. Served with a super simple yoghurt dressing it makes a perfect picnic or BBQ item.
