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!

gochujang red lentil and bean soup

Recipes, Soups and salads

We love a soup - but too many of them are low in protein to keep us satisfied. This one is not only full of protein - but also rich in fibre which helps to keep our blood sugars stable. We use the jarred beans from Bold Bean Company which are so good. Sprinkle with as much feta as you need to hit your protein target. If you divide this soup into 3 this will give you around 18g of protein. If you use chicken stock slightly more. Then adding 50g of feta and 1 tbsp pumpkin seeds will increase this to 30g protein.

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.

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.

If you have ever attended a talk of ours or been a client of Kat’s you know one of her favourite vegetables for just about all areas of health is beetroot. It’s great for heart, liver and hormone health. We grate a large batch of beetroot to keep in fridge and add to salads through the week. With the quinoa, feta and seeds you are looking at around 25g of protein for this salad.

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.

This has to be one of my favourite classics from my childhood. My grand parents lived in Nice and I have heaps of happy memories there…For some of you this may seem like a lot of ingredients to buy and prep but the beauty of this is that it is a perfect salad to make ahead in the summer to accompany a BBQ and the ideal meal to make once ( base) and eat 3 times for lunch with different protein on top. Perfect balance of mediterranean flavours, healthy plant diversity and healthy fats.

I want to call this a good friend in the kitchen, a real multi-tasker to make ahead. Rhubarb and ginger are amazing together. This is such an easy simple sample to make in winter, especially with the ginger coming through. It stores really well in a mason jar in the fridge. Everyone loves it in my house. It’s delicious with a warm porridge, perfect with greek yoghurt and nuts and makes the ideal base for a crumble. A keeper for sure.

They are very easy to transport to the office or studio and are great for kids and grown-ups alike. This recipe is made with kefir instead of milk for the added bonus of supporting your gut health.
