Risotto is one of those meals I don’t make often enough, but when I do I always love it. I needed a break from all the curries I have been eating lately to stay warm and this seemed like the perfect time to whip up a new risotto dish, and mushroom & spinach risotto it was!
There’s really not much better than roasted veggies in winter and this cumin roasted pumpkin & parsnip with chickpeas is a prime example of that. Full of delicious flavour from the spiced oil, sweetness from the roasted pumpkin as well as a good amount of crunch, you really can’t ask for much more!
I’ve long been a fan of Mexican food, it’s normally quick and easy to whip up, relatively healthy (okay, maybe not with this much cheese!) and super tasty. These baked corn & black bean quesadillas are no exception, and you can have them on the table in under 20 minutes which makes them an excellent lunch or quick dinner option. You can also use the best quesadilla maker, to have it cook a little faster.
It’s dip time again! I originally made this delicious spinach & cashew dip to take on a picnic, although I’ve since made it a few more times to snack on at work or toss through some pasta as a pesto and every time it has been a real winner. It’s incredibly simple to whip up and is so cheap to make, so you’ve really got no excuse not to give it a try!
Banh mi is one of my favourite lunches but unfortunately there is nowhere near my work to get a good one, so I decided to take matters into my own hands and whip up some of my own! Complete with pickled veggies and plenty of chilli, this recipe for lemongrass tofu banh mi is definitely a winner!
