I'm not even going to waste your time with quantities or how to's, this salad is as easy as it gets. Take some fresh peppery rocket, top with thinly sliced prosciutto (or even better: Spanish serrano), fresh figs quartered, and shaved parmesan. Toast some pine nuts and add them along with a drizzle of extra [...]
Add this quick and easy side dish to your next get together. Healthy and delicious, it would also be great with some goats cheese or feta crumbled over the top, or you could also swap the raisins for some pomegranate seeds. what you need a whole cauliflower, cut into florets salt and pepper extra virgin [...]
I was recently asked to bring a pasta salad to a family birthday, and of course it's the one salad I pretty much NEVER make. I wanted to avoid the usual creamy options, and ended up with two different versions, both of which were a hit. GREEN MACHINE PESTO PASTA SALAD Toss some traditional basil [...]
I could go on and on and on about how amazing tomatoes are, how versatile, how sublimely perfect they are when old school heirloom varieties are ripened in the Mediterranean sun, how late I was to the tomato appreciation game, and how I couldn't live without them, but I won't. Instead I'll just give you [...]
I love a good salad. Adapting your favourite summer salads to Autumn or Winter flavours by switching to seasonal ingredients, and swapping peaches for apples and almonds for pecans takes your salad game to a whole new level. I also think this salad would be great with some flaked smoked trout instead of the cranberries, [...]
This is the perfect salad: substantial, fresh, crunchy, zingy, and filling enough to be a meal on it's own. I usually serve it as part of a Lebanese spread but it's also great with a BBQ, or even with seafood. It's a great all rounder which always disappears fast. It's good for you too. I'm [...]
This recipe will actually take me longer to type up than it did to cook. It's perfect Summer eating, easily stretches to feed a crowd, and is full of vegetables too. You could definitely add some kind of crumbled cheese as well as olives and give it a Greek vibe, and some lentils or black [...]
This salad is what you get when the dinner crowd grows unexpectedly at the last minute, so those few chicken schnitzels that were going to feed three now need to stretch to feeding a few more. There's always the pizza option or another trip to the shops for top up's but to be honest I [...]
This salad is what happens when you start off making fattoush but want to leave out the bread, decide to add black beans, and then top with Greek feta. This is my most favourite kind of Summer eating, all spread out on a large platter and assembled in minutes. It's fresh and crunchy, light and [...]
This is the perfect meal, especially in the warmer months. Easily changeable for whatever veg you might prefer or have to hand {pumpkin, asparagus, baby potatoes, and eggplant would work really well}, and filling enough all on it's own. Quick too, just an assembly job once the sweet potato and pine nuts are ready. VEGAN [...]
