Triple cheese, pepperoni & jalapeño pizza

Try making a Detroit-style pizza, known for its fluffy, thick base with a cheesy crisp crust. Serving four, it’s perfect for a Friday night in with the family

Rumbledethumps

Make a traditional Scottish dish using potato and cabbage. Use leftover boiled potatoes and cooked cabbage rather than cooking from scratch, if you like

Raspberry & shortbread crumble

Find frozen raspberries when fresh raspberries aren’t in season to make this glorious crumble, which uses crushed shortbread biscuits for the topping

Next level veg chilli

Peanut butter & jelly blondies

Bake blondies with the moreish American combo of peanut butter and strawberry jam. Use any jam you like – strawberry, blackberry or plum will all work well

Harissa chicken with bulgur wheat

Bulgur is easy to cook and a great alternative to refined grains. It’s high in fibre and nutrient-rich, so good for your gut, digestion and heart health. Serve it with stews, or use it in salads or as a nutritious alternative to rice. This recipe is a favourite with my kids!

Miso salmon & veg traybake

Throwing all the ingredients onto a tray and letting the oven do the work allows me time to tackle that never-ending to-do list. The miso marinade is super-versatile, too. It goes well with any flaky white fish or boneless chicken thighs. I like to double it up for drizzling over veg.

Super-green curry with quinoa rice

I’ve used chickpeas in this, but the curry base is adaptable; just add your choice of protein. A squeeze of lemon adds vitamin C to aid iron absorption and mixing quinoa with rice increases your intake of high-fibre wholegrains and protein.

Creamy Cajun prawn orzo

I love to use orzo to make quick creamy pasta after a busy day at work, but you can use this sauce with any kind of pasta. I like to make my own Cajun spice mix as ready-made mixes often contain added salt, but if you don’t think you’ll use up all the individual spices, then take the ready-made option – just check the label to ensure it’s not too salty.
