Ratatouille

Ratatouille has become one of our regular breakfast accompaniments. It's so easy to make, and you can make a huge batch and have it over the week. We love it with a pork sausage or some other breakfast meat as a hearty, delicious wintery breakfast. You don't need to be too strict on the ingredients either. If you have a vegetable which you need to use up, add it to the recipe.

Deconstructed moussaka (dairy-free, egg-free, gluten-free)

One of my favourite hearty meals is moussaka. The combination of savoury mince with cheese and aubergines is delicious and such a satisfying, comforting meal. This meal is just as delicious, but is egg and dairy-free.

I like to make a huge pot of savoury mince every now and then, which I freeze into meal-size portions. It makes for a very quick and easy dinner or lunch.

Roasted Almond and Macadamia Nut Butter

Oh my word. This stuff is amazing... My new favourite thing to make with my NutriBullet. It is actually a problem, because every time we open the fridge, we take out a spoon (or two) of this delicious treat. You can adapt the recipe and make it with any nut of your choice, and you can play around with different flavours too. In this recipe, I added a bit of cinnamon and honey to it. Oh dear... I think it might not last the weekend!

The best pork belly

Pork belly is our favourite favourite... And it is so easy to make. It takes a few hours to cook, so tackle this when you have some time. The meat is very soft, due to the slow cooking time, and the top is deliciously crunchy with the crackling.
