Recipe List
- Chicken and Eggplant Meatballs - This is a fairly simple meal to prepare, but you do need to get your hands dirty rolling meatballs
- Cauliflower Soup - It is super easy to make in one pot, and doesn't require any fancy ingredients.
- Mediterranean Pasta - a dish inspired by the classic Greek combination of feta cheese and olives.
- Ginger and Lime Prawns with Rice - so fresh and healthy, with a slightly Japanese style flavour.
- Salmon and Coriander Pasta - quick to prepare and it doesn't require any tricky preparation techniques.
- Beetroot Risotto - Beetroot seems an unlikely match for a risotto, but the purple colour of the beetroot makes for an outstanding look to the meal.

- Sweet Potato Frittata - a highly nutritious dish where you can use anything in your fridge or pantry as ingredients.
