Sometimes I really fancy something healthy just like when I have a craving for junk food. I had a pack of sugar snap peas that I forgot to add to a stir fry so I thought id put them in a salad. They were delicious crunchy, sweet and fresh. I also had ½ red pepper…

Beef, Rocket and Potato Salad with a Horseradish and Thyme Dressing
This is such a classic British combination, roast beef, potatoes and horseradish. I really love cold roast beef and it can be added to all cuisines in a salad (I also love it in Asian noodle salad) I also cook a few extra potatoes when I am using them for a dinner so I can…
Smoked Chicken Caesar Salad
I love a good Caesar salad but I can find them a bit heavy and calorific. I have lightened up the dressing on mine by using light mayonnaise. I also used a smoked chicken breast to make it a bit more exciting. I just love the contrasts of really crisp lettuce, soft chicken, crunch from…
Hot Smoked Salmon and Mango Salad with a Mango Salsa and Chilli Dressing
As we having a mini heatwave (which is amazing) I fancied a really tropical salad. I also listened to a pod cast saying as mangoes are fibrous they help with anti aging. This was zingy, fresh and really yummy. Its also really nice that it uses all of mango. Ingredients (serves 2) Directions
Dukkha Crusted Lamb on Warm Hummus Served with Harissa Roasted Romesco Cauliflower Salad with a Pomegranate Dressing
This dinner was such a treat! It had so many textures and flavours that work harmoniously. I was going to originally coat the lamb with sumac but I didn’t have any so I used the dukkha I had made. I prefer warm hummus to mash potato. Its healthy super silky smooth and has so much…
Feta Mint and Potato Salad with a Herb Mustard Dressing
As it is only me and paulie in the house (apart from 2 fur babies) if we have new potatoes for dinner we don’t eat a whole bag. I cook all of them and use them in salads. This salad was yummy and really summery. I love feta and mint together, the flavours work so…
Hot Smoked Trout and Fennel Salad with a Dill, Chive and Lemon Dressing topped with Crispy Capers
This salad was really special and such a treat. It has everything, crunchy aniseedy fennel, soft Smokey trout, a fresh and zingy dressing, then finished off with crispy salty capers. I love frying capers as they open up and look like flowers. They are so crispy, I could eat a whole bowl of them. It…
Coriander Prawns, Kimchi and Edamame Salad Bowl with Gochujang Dressing
I’m trying to get into eating more fermented foods as they are so good for your gut. I really like the flavours of kimchi. As it’s Korean I wanted to stick to that theme and I love a Buddha bowl. The dressing worked perfectly, the gochujang dressing adds a kick and really uplifts the salad….
Marinated Tofu and Kale Noodle Salad with a Miso and Peanut Dressing
Tofu can be great or awful. As long as it’s marinated right, it can be delicious I also like mine to have a nice texture. The air fryer works perfectly as it gives the tofu a crispy texture. I can eat peanut butter in any format but as we go to Asia quite often, satay…
Mediterranean Halloumi Salad and Herb Dressing
I love dried herbs they add flavour to anything. My favourites are oregano, thyme and rosemary. When I was in Greece they served a salad dressing like this over their feta Greek salad. I used halloumi in mine but I tried to recreate the dressing and it was yummy. Ingredients (serves 2) For the Salad…
Chorizo on Middle Eastern Pomegranate Molasses Haricot Beans
I love Middle Eastern flavours. I was tidying up my store cupboard and at the back was half a bottle of pomegranate molasses, I was determined to use it in something so this salad was born. My friend is Israeli and she brought me back some Zaatar that her family had made. It’s delicious and…

Lightly spiced beetroot on earthy lentils all topped off with a zingy and spicy fragrant dressing. I love summer but I also love this time of year with comforting food and warming spices. This is a yummy Middle Eastern flavoured salad all the flavours are already married together and are well tested and enjoyed. Ingredients…
Roasted Vegetables on Couscous with a Zaatar Dressing
This is an easy dish as I just bought some prepared mixed vegetables from the supermarket and put them in the oven. Couscous is easy to make too. I love couscous and Zaatar together it tastes so exotic and the flavours are so layered. This is just a yummy dish packed full of flavours. Ingredients…
Warm Leftover Beef and Roast Potato Salad with Horseradish and Mustard
I hate wasting food so I wanted to use up my Sunday roast leftovers. I’ve only ever put leftover new potatoes in a salad but I thought why not roast potatoes. I’m not keen on them cold so zapping them in the microwave for a minute worked perfectly making it a nice warm salad. The…
Smoked Trout on an Edamame Bean Salad topped with a Preserved Lemon and Caper Salsa
I love smoked trout it’s abit more delicate than smoked salmon and most supermarkets stock it. I buy shelled edamame or soya beans already prepared and frozen so you can just grab a handful and rinse them under some warm water to defrost. I could eat capers with anything as the give a punch of…
