A simple tasty and nourishing winter dish. The addition of butterbeans adds a little extra fibre and protein to this hearty and warming winter soup. A firm favourite with crusty bread and extra virgin olive oil.

A warming an Autumnal soup recipe. The addition of butter beans adds a delightful creamy texture and protein kick. This recipe will get you well on your way to your 30 different plant foods this week. I hope you enjoy!

Brussels sprouts are part of the cruciferous vegetable family and are a great source of fibre and micronutrients including vitamin C & K. Anchovies are a rich source of protein, omega 3 fatty acids and micronutrients including calcium and zinc. When roasted, they crisp up and effectively disintegrate, adding a wonderful salty taste to the sprouts which surprisingly isn’t too ‘fishy’.

I often get asked for simple savoury snack recipes and have found these to be incredibly popular with clients. They can be eaten on their own or added to salads, soups, stews etc. for extra crunch and flavour.

Simple and speedy to make, this dish serves 1 as a main or 2 as a side (works perfectly with fish and a green salad). Dried, tinned and pre cooked lentils all work well and feel free to add extra feta, mozzarella, other veggies, toasted nuts and seeds if you wish.

This is incredibly simple to make and leave cooking for a few hours. The addition of pomegranate molasses transforms the tomatoes making them irresistibly sweet and tangy. They work well on toast or as an accompaniment with fish, meat, other grains and pulses etc.

My favourite way to cook cauliflower is roasting with salt, pepper and olive oil. Simple yet effective and don’t forget about the leaves, arguably the tastiest part of the vegetable. They go slightly crispy and taste amazing with the sharpness of the salsa verde.

The combination of these two ingredients is delightful. Pear gives a natural sweetness with the slight kick from the ginger. The pears go lovely and soft the longer you stew them and feel free to add in more or less ginger depending on your preference.
