Sesame noodle bowl

sesame noodle bowl

With the arrival of soy sauce on tap in the shop I am discovering lots of new recipes and this sesame noodle bowl is a real stunner. Quick, tasty and satisfying it is everything I want in a meal and perfect for summer evenings.. The flavours go really well together (yes, even the desiccated coconut) and the whole thing took me less than half an hour to prepare. It’s true! Give it a try.

Plus all the ingredients are available in Crickhowell and the local area, so no need to go to a supermarket.  We got the chard, spring onions and peas from Moor Park Garden, fresh herbs from the garden, a few bits and pieces from Cashells and the rest from Natural Weigh…of course.

Cauliflower & potato curry

This is a lovely, warming and easy curry to make and uses ingredients which are almost always ready and waiting to be used up in our house.  You can make it as spicy as you like by adding more curry powder but the recipe below has a gentle warmth to it which went down a storm with Rowan (15 months old now!). Continue reading Cauliflower & potato curry

Carrot & lentil burgers

Carrot & lentil burger

Veggie burgers have been a bit hit and miss in my experience but these went down well in our house. In fact, I think Rob mentioned how much he was enjoying them three times during the meal! Definitely a winner. And they go wonderfully well with some sweet potato chips, mixed summer salad and gorgeous wall to wall sunshine. Enjoy! Continue reading Carrot & lentil burgers

These chocolate muffins are lovely and quick to make and we ALWAYS have all the ingredients sat in the cupboard.  You can customise easily with adding different nuts, dried fruit or even chocolate chunks.

Pulled jackfruit wraps

pulled jackfruit wrap

Oh this meal is so good. I am a recent convert to jackfruit but I am convinced this meal will delight meat eaters and vegans alike. The jackfruit gives a wonderful texture and the flavours of the sauce are lovely. It does take a bit of planning to make the wraps but definitely worth it. And be warned, it is more filling than you would think! Two wraps each was plenty for us but this recipe makes enough for eight wraps (four people). Continue reading Pulled jackfruit wraps

The original baked beans

Baked beans

Conventional tinned baked beans are widely considered a cheap, quick, easy meal but I rarely hear them described as delicious. And I don’t think many people consider them to be particularly nutritious. These baked beans are different! Packed full of flavour and with plenty of vegetables, they make a hearty, filling meal and, similar to their conventional cousins, they can be cheap, quick and easy to make. Perfect at this time of year too when so many of the ingredients are in season. Continue reading The original baked beans
