• The Ultimate Cheese Toastie with Sweet Chilli Sauce

  

  This is one of my all time favourite comfort foods, it’s inspired by a Jamie Oliver recipe but I’ve only included one type of cheese here. You can use your favourite type of cheese, favourite bread and favourite sauce, this meal is about making something delicious that you love. The cayenne pepper adds a hit…

• Patatas Bravas

  

  Last summer I went to Barcelona with a group of my closest friends and I really enjoyed my time there, especially the food! Something I loved time and time again (mostly because it was often one of the few vegetarian options on a tapas menu) was patatas bravas, so I’ve recreated the dish at home.…

• Parsley and Harissa Puy Lentil Bowl

  

  I was looking for something really quick and easy to make for lunch a few days ago, and I decided to give microwavable puy lentils a try. The ones I’ve used are in a pouch, and can be microwaved or pan fried for two minutes, so are really convenient compared to dried lentils. Although puy…

• Lemony Pesto Pasta with Roasted Veg and Feta

  

  I felt like making something a little more spring-like this week, so I’ve tried to include more fresh flavours with my winter favourites. It’s still not quite warm enough yet to let go of roasted veg and comforting pasta dishes, but I love using lemon and feta alongside these more seasonal ingredients for a perfect…

• Food Spot: Shambles Kitchen

  

  I’m visiting my friends in York at the moment and on my first day here we went to the town centre, where Shambles Kitchen came thoroughly recommended from my friends Jack and Wilem. The cafe sits on a tiny winding street with only a few seats inside, however it doesn’t feel cramped or strained for…

• Smokey Butternut Squash Bruschetta

  

  I only used half a baked butternut squash in my last recipe, so this a good way to use up the leftover squash without having to buy too many ingredients. Although bruschetta is usually made using raw tomatoes, I’ve roasted them with red onions, garlic and olive oil to complement the paprika in the squash.…

• Butternut Squash Pasta Bake with Thyme

  

  This one isn’t the healthiest of meals, but it’s full of delicious slow baked butternut squash so you’ll be able to taste some goodness amongst all the gooey cheese. I really like this dish as a substitute for a vegetable lasagne, which is time consuming and difficult to cook for just one person. This also…

• Sweetcorn Fritters with Avocado Dip

  

  Making any kind of fritter/burger is a really good way to get veg into your system without just having it as a side dish. These little cakes are really tasty and good for you, as well as being easy to make for a light lunch. For this recipe to work, you’ll need to have some…

• Quick Red Pepper Fajitas with Salsa

  

  Fajitas should be in everyone’s collection of recipes, they’re real crowd pleasers and are quick and easy to make at short notice. I love cooking these for my family as they’re a particular favourite of my brother, and although he (and alot of you!) may prefer to use chicken, I’ve used red pepper and red…

• Spicy Carrot and Red Lentil Soup

  

  Making soup is a great way to use up any extra vegetables (the carrots are from the tagine I made in my last post) as well as delicious and cheap. It’s been freezing cold recently so I’ve been itching to make a good, hearty soup to look forward to after lectures! I’ve made this one…
