Poached Salmon Noodles

by Judianne on in Fish, Pesach Recipes, Sauces

People often ask me what my favourite recipe is….. its a really hard one because I obviously like all of my recipes but THIS is definitely one of my favourites. It’s really easy to make & the sauce is super tasty. As the salmon is poached it’s super moist and it’s packed with delicious crunchy vegetables. Totally my sort of food. Sprinkled with a few black sesame seeds and I’m in! The only problem is that it is rather hard to eat without dribbling sauce on your chin! Let me know how you get on……

Chicken Caesar Salad

by Judianne on in Chicken & Turkey, Fakeaway, Packed lunch, Salads

If you follow me on social media then you’ll have seen this Chicken Caesar Salad cropping up quite a bit recently. It’s currently on repeat on my weekly meal plan & it’s been a popular choice in lessons too.
It’s great with leftover roast chicken (no wasted food) or salmon instead of chicken (just poach for less time) and my vegan son enjoyed his with chestnuts (although that was a bit random and I’ll work on with a better protein option for him!) 
We’re not huge fans of anchovies, so I didn’t include them but if you are……just add them. 
If you’d like the recipe….. it’s available in my Subscribers Only Area. Just subscribe on the front page of the website and you’ll be sent a password to access this recipe and some others that are only for my subscribers.

Hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Please let me know if you do.

Thai Green Curry

by Judianne on in Fakeaway, Vegan, Vegetarian

We all like different flavours and types of food. My daughter and eldest aren’t fans of curry, my husband doesn’t like tofu, my son is vegan … they’re a hard bunch to please!

So I knew that this Thai Green Curry wasn’t going to be for everyone and sometimes that’s ok.

I loved it, as did my husband (with the tofu swapped for salmon or chicken – he loved both versions) and my son did too …so that was success as far as I was concerned. My eldest tried it and agreed that it was actually ok. We’re getting somewhere…..

Anyway here’s the recipe for you to decide if it’s one for your family or not.

Minestrone Soup

by Judianne on in Cheaper Healthy Food, Pulses, Beans & Legumes, Soup

This soup is a hearty, filling, comforting, warming meal in a bowl!

This recipe was inspired by my friend Lois Allon whilst we were cooking together for our local Foodbank.

It’s really her recipe just with a few tweaks. so Thank you Lois

The red kidney beans add protein and are a source of Vitamin B1, which helps the body break down and release energy from food.

The pasta fills you up, the veggies provide fibre and lots of vitamins and minerals and because they’re still whole and not blitzed, it all helps keep you feeling fuller for longer.

Lentil Shepherd’s Pie

by Judianne on in Cheaper Healthy Food, Pulses, Beans & Legumes, Vegan, Vegetarian

This Shepherd’s Pie is a great winter comfort dish. Made with a flavorsome vegetable base with lentils for protein. The sauce is slightly herby with a mix of vegetable flavours and textures. The creamy mashed potato on top makes it extra comforting and filling. The chestnuts are my favourite addition – I love their creamy texture and flavour.

Make your Own Poke Bowl

by Judianne on in Fish, Vegan

Hands up…. this recipe is NOT quick but it can be…..

I make all of the components of the Poke Bowl because it means everyone in the family is VERY happy and I make enough for lunch the next day so it’s cook once eat twice, so it may take longer but there’s a whole meal that I don’t need to prep for at all the following day.

I like the sriracha sauce and my kids prefer the teriyaki, so again…I make both

but if you want the Poke Bowl but quicker…. make one sauce and leave out some of the vegetables e.g don’t make fried mushrooms or sweetcorn or lettuce and the dish could be done in 15 mins.
