• Simple Mediterranean Spaghetti

  

  I’ve been loving this spaghetti recently, with looming essay deadlines and a tonne of reading to do this simple dish has been amazing at keeping me full.  It’s so delicious and I honestly can’t stop eating it.  You can use whatever pasta you like, I’ve even had this as a kind of tomato risotto using…

• Carrot and Freekeh Salad

  

  I love freekeh, it’s a really tasty alternative to rice or cous cous and enhances the middle eastern vibe in any dish. It is made from green wheat and has amazing fiberous properties. I’ve used a lovely combination of warming spices, lemon and garlic to make the marinade for the carrots, the lemon especially brings…

• Energising Breakfast Ideas

  

  For some people, breakfast can be just another morning chore.  There is nothing more deflating than a bland bowl of cereal in the morning so, for me, the key is to make breakfast something you’ll actually look forward to eating.  Personally I can’t function properly (especially when I’m in classes) when I havn’t at least…

• Tomato, Thyme and Mozzerella Rotolo

  

  This recipe is inspired by one of the first Jamie Oliver recipes I cooked, and it’s a really great crowd pleaser. I love the taste of sweet tomato and woody thyme, I’ve also used balsamic vinegar to cut through the flavoursome filling. Mozzerella is the perfect melting cheese, and this dish only being in the…

  Whether you’re starting university in September or returning after a year of nuggets and Subway, this is your ultimate guide to being a good student cook.

• Three Great Salad Dressings

  

  When it comes to eating healthily, salads can be pretty uninspiring and bland.  So a good salad dressing can make all the difference and maybe even help you to make healthier choices! I’ve made three of my favourites, all different styles and flavours to go with a variety of salads. The fruity, zesty Asian dressing…

• Tikka Chickpea and Spinach Pittas with Quinoa

  

  I’ve never really used a ready made curry paste before, but I saw these when I was working and thought I would give it a go! The mini pittas I’ve used are really sweet and perfect for this sort of meal/snack, but if you can’t find them then just cut large pitta breads in half.…

• Berry Ripple Sundae

  

  Apologies for the little break in posting, it’s been a pretty busy summer so far! The sunny weather today inspired me to make this beachy, summer berry ripple sundae, perfect for BBQs. I’ve used thick, Greek yoghurt and frozen berries for a fresh take on a traditional ice cream sundae! I really love the mix…

• Food Guide: Copenhagen

  

  I recently went on an amazing five day trip to the beautiful city of Copenhagen. I had a great time in one of the most relaxed, safe and interesting cities I’ve been to in Europe. Copenhagen is often coined the cool kid on the block when it comes to all things scandi, and my experience…
