When I first went vegetarian red lentil dahl was a staple in my kitchen – it’s cheap, healthy, ready in no time and fills you right up. It had been a while since I had cooked it but got a hankering lately and quickly remembered why I liked it so much! I have a feeling it will be showing up in my meal plans a lot again!
I ate lots of delicious, creamy pasta dishes whilst in Hungary and Slovenia recently, so when I got back to a cold Melbourne winter I decided to try and recreate that kind of food in my own kitchen. This mushroom chickpea paprikash makes use of some of the amazing paprika I brought back from a market in Budapest and is absolutely deeelish!
My love of haloumi knows no bounds so it should come as no surprise that I absolutely love these zucchini haloumi fritters! They’re super easy to whip up, (mostly) healthy, and ready in no time, making them perfect pretty much any time of the day!
The other night I felt like a warming winter dinner that made the most of delicious, earthy flavours and this pumpkin, mushroom & kale gnocchi was the answer! Not only does it highlight delicious winter produce but by pan frying the gnocchi we get crispy goodness in the dish as well, YUM!
My love for Mexican food has been well documented on this blog so I thought it was about time I turned those flavours into a soup and this black bean & sweet potato soup was the result! It’s filling and warming making it the perfect winter comfort food, whilst still being healthy!
