This elegant and delicious cod dish is ready in 15 minutes. A bit of chopping and 7 minutes in the oven and it’s ready to serve with vegetables or salsa.

Avocado Salsa

Avocado Salsa is incredibly versatile so we eat it a lot during the warmer months. It’s ready in about 10 minutes and keeps in the fridge for 24 hours.

Tortellini in Broth

A package of ready made tortellini can be transformed into this beautiful, comforting and nutritious meal in less than 20 minutes. Just make sure you’ve got stock vegetable stock to make the whole thing sing.

Waldorf-ish Salad

This is a my light twist on a classic salad. Waldorf salad has such amazing textures and pairs beautifully with warm, oozy cheese.

Sausage Meatballs and Beans

Based on the tinned sausages and beans this version has less salt and sugar and is more substantial. The children love rolling the meatballs for this easy kid’s tea.

Sweet and Sour Pork is an all-round family favourite. It’s easy to make this sweet and sticky sauce and the whole thing is ready in less than 20 minutes.

Green Soup

Green Soup is a tasty way to use up a head of broccoli and boost your iron levels. I love soups you can load up with your favourite toppings and this one is perfect.

Anchovy and Black Olive Pasta

Tins and jars can make the most delicious pasta sauce in the same time it takes for the pasta to cook. Anchovies are a great source of omega-3 fatty acids which are necessary for heart and brain health.

Grated Potato Pancakes

Grated Potato Pancakes are one of my quick side dishes that I rely on in the week when time or patience is short.

Spinach and Strawberry Salad with Salmon

Spinach and Strawberry Salad with Salmon is one of my favourite ways to give my iron levels a boost. The balsamic dressing has a great consistency and sweet, tangy flavour.
