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. Serves 4 Ingredients Method Per serving: 302kcal/ 13g fat/ 2.0g saturated fat/ …
This whole dish could very easily be made completely in the oven, making it more hands-free. I used Isle of Wight tomatoes and aubergines which are currently in season, and are more locally produced with fewer air miles, making them more sustainable as part of Sustainable September. Serves 4 Ingredients Method *Option to do this step in the oven Per …
Did you know that the average Brit spends £1000 buying lunch at work over the course of the year? This cost, coupled with the single-use packaging and missed opportunity for added nutrition is why I’ve teamed up with MyNutriWeb as part of Sustainable September to help you be more sustainable when it comes to lunch. It is estimated that 28% …

It’s back to school time, so you’re looking for a super simple recipe which doesn’t take any time, but delivers on flavour and nutrition. Here’s my one-pan chipotle chicken rice dish, with minimal fuss and washing up leaving you with more time to do your other tasks. We’re using onion, peppers and tomatoes for fibre and micronutrients, wholegrain rice for …
I was asked for a recipe that could be batch-cooked and frozen down for a baby as part of weaning using a courgette. So here is my Courgette Pasta Bake which can be used 3 different ways: either cook and eat straight away, as meal prep either in the fridge for a few days or the freezer for a few …
Courgettes in a cookie? Don’t knock it till you’ve tried it! These cookies are made with spelt flour, mostly because I didn’t have any plain flour. However, using alternative grains to wheat is a great way to improve the biodiversity of the foods we grow, and not only help look after our planet, but also out gut microbiota which love …
Minimal washing up whilst creating a really delicious and balanced meal in 15 minutes! It’s using courgettes, kale, basil and nasturtium all from the allotment. If you haven’t tried nasturtium before, it has a slightly peppery taste that reminds me of rocket – both the flowers and leaves are edible, plus they act as a pollinator for bees which attracts …
