There are so many things to love about this Turmeric Rice and Beans dish. Firstly, it’s a one pan meal which makes me just as happy as when someone says “sheet cake” – it’s in the same league, they are one pan, one mess wonders. Music to my kitchen sink.

Tomato and Basil Chickpea Pasta

Roasted Butternut and Red Pepper Soup
You may tell from the number of soup recipes on this website, that I really enjoy the idea of nutritious liquid in a bowl (or cup in this case). The toasted and buttered piece of ciabatta may also play a role in my soup-loving ways, for what is a soup without something to dunk in…
