• Roasted Tomato Soup with Pesto and Parmesan Toasts

  

  I’ve never made tomato soup before and I had a real craving for it yesterday morning, so I thought I would give it a go! I also decided to try and make it a little more interesting than just having ordinary bread by making some little pesto and parmesan toasts, with homemade garden herb pesto!…

• Food Spot: Bibimbap Soho

  

  I’ve been meaning to give Bibimbap in Soho a try for a really long time, and yesterday my friend Mirabel and I finally managed to pay it a visit. The restaurant is situated just off Charing Cross Road, not too far from Chinatown and is actually not too tricky to find. We were greeted by…

• Weekday Meal: Spicy Butterbeans with Garlic Mash

  

  I’m starting a new weekly feature where I’ll be sharing my favourite simple, student budget friendly meals that are brilliant for midweek meals. I’ll be posting them every Friday! This one is really warming and lovely, one of my go to dishes when I need to make something to eat over a few days in…

• Nachos with Chipotle Sauce and Sides

  

  I love Mexican food, and nachos are one of my absolute favourite dishes. At home with my family, I would make these as part of a Mexican feast with chilli, fajitas or tacos. Away at uni I like to make these as a dish in their own right, with fresh avocado, limes, tomatoes and soured…

• 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…

• 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…
