My Turkish Inspired Eggs contain plenty of protein thanks to Yeo Valley 0% Greek Recipe*, as well as carbohydrates from the sourdough bread served with them. I’m also pairing in plenty of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants to help with recovery …
Pasta is my comfort food, so when Ninja asked me to create an autumn comfort meal using the 8-in-1 Foodie Possible cooker, I knew it had to be pasta-based as that’s the equivalent of a big cosy hug in a bowl for me. What you might not realise is that there are recommendations for red meat intakes, with health bodies …

I used to work at King’s College London as a postdoctoral researcher and there was this little falafel stall just around the corner which would be mine and my colleagues go to spot when we were treating ourselves to lunch out (or running back to the metabolic research unit!). These falafel are a nod to those which I used to …
My friend doesn’t like thick soups, which is often the case when using curcubits. This, however, is a very thin soup, which still packs a punch. Each serving provides you with a third of your daily fibre requirements, making it a great meal choice on cold winter days.
