English Muffins With Chard,
Scrambled Egg & Smoked Salmon

INGREDIENTS
1 English muffin, halved
3-4 chard leaves
1 egg, beaten
@catekitchen
I’m Cate, and I blog
about food. I’ve loved
cooking ever since
I was a little girl and
almost everything in
my life revolves around
food. Breakfast is my
favourite meal of the
day. For me, having
a big dose of protein
when I wake up is the
way to go; it leaves me
feeling super satisfied
and ready to take on
the day. Leafy greens,
eggs and oily fish are a
total dream team, and
I hope you love the dish
I’ve provided as much
as I do!
06
Serves 1
#FitFoodBMF
30g Smoked salmon
A little oil for frying and
a little butter for spreading
Salt and pepper to taste

Separate the chard leaves from the stalks. Set the leaves aside for a moment and chop the stalks into 1cm slices, then fry in a little oil in a non-stick frying pan on a medium heat for 5–7 minutes.
Meanwhile, roll up the leaves like cigars and slice finely into lovely green strips. Add the leaves to the stalks and cook for another 5–7 minutes or until the leaves are wilted.
Toast and butter your English muffin.
Melt some butter in a separate frying pan – or the same one wiped down if you don’t mind letting your chard get
a little cold.
Add the egg and smoked salmon to the pan and stir until the egg is cooked.
Top one muffin half with the chard, the other with the scrambled egg. Now tuck in!
Ben Coomber says Oily fish, like salmon,
is packed with antiinflammatory omega-3
fats, which nearly
everyone’s diet is
lacking, so this dish
is an excellent way to
get more in. Plus, who
doesn’t like a muffin?!

Hi, I am a petite,
24-year-old food,

Pour the oats into a medium sized bowl and
mix in the beaten egg and mashed banana.
Add the milk and mix thoroughly.
Place the mixture into a medium sized mug and
microwave for 3–4 minutes.
Turn it onto a plate and get ready to make your
taste buds dance. If you like, you can also serve
with things like sliced strawberries and bananas.
Ben Coomber says This quick and simple
breakfast is carbohydrate
packed to aid energy
levels. Also, incorporating
banana is a great way
to re-ignite oats as well
as increase nutritional
density.

Spicy Baked Eggs

Rapeseed oil with chilli
1/2 tsp cayenne powder
1/2 tsp chilli flakes
Salt and pepper to season

@stefaniegrace
Sometimes, brunch
needs to be a little
more exciting than
just something on
toast. After a weekend
morning workout, I like
to cook up something
really wholesome and
filling. Inspired by my
time living in Spain
and Costa Rica, these
baked eggs are like
huevos rancheros:
spicy and satisfying.
010
Serves 2
#FitFoodBMF
1/2 red onion, diced
1 large clove garlic, crushed
or grated
1/2 green pepper, sliced
1 can/cup pinto or cannellini
beans, cooked and drained
1 can chopped tomatoes
2 large eggs
METHOD
1

Fry the onion and garlic in a little chilli oil and spices.
Once browned, add the sliced pepper to the pan.
Follow this with the beans and stir quickly.
Add the tomatoes to the mix and season with salt
and pepper, but watch the salt levels if your beans
were canned.
Once the mixture is fully heated through, spoon it into
small, individual ramekins, leaving a dip in the middle
to break an egg into.
Break eggs into the ramekins over the mixture and
bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 15–20mins,
or until the eggs are cooked. Gently shaking the dish
to ensure they are firm is a good guide, as sometimes
they look white but are still a little raw underneath.
7
Serve immediately and enjoy!
Tip: Add freshly sliced avocado to make
it a little more decadent. You can also
serve with a little toasted sourdough
bread on the side.
Ben Coomber says -
Cayenne and
chili powder are
metabolically
boosting. Paired with
the fact that this is a
low maintenance dish
packed with protein,
it’s a perfect
start to the day.

Want a totally tasty but

that’s packed full of
good fats, potassium,

A and calcium? This is
my absolute favourite
morning dish, and it’s so
easy to make. It’s also
really good for you. It’s a
healthy alternative to the
usual fatty breakfasts and
it’s extremely filling; so will
keep you going right up
until dinner time.

Whilst your bread is toasting, slice and pit your
avocado then mash to your desired consistency
either by hand, simply using a potato masher,
or blending in a food processor.
Slice the rye bread into generous sized portions and
lightly toast.
Once the avocado is mashed, add 1 tsp of walnut
oil and crushed chillies to taste. Give the combined ingredients a good mix.
Apply a generous amount to one side of the rye bread slices and crumble your preferred amount of the feta
on top.
Put the stacked slices of bread under the grill for a
minute or so – until the feta has turned a very subtle
and pale brown colour on top.
Serve up straight away and enjoy a delicious,
healthy and nutrient-packed start to your day.
Ben Coomber says -
As simple breakfasts
go, we can’t argue with
this one, especially as it
packs a big nutritional
punch with the healthy
monounsaturated fats
found in avocados.

Apple & Feta Quinoa
40 min
Jen Collins
BLOG
paperbeauty.com
TWITTER
INGREDIENTS
2 handfuls of chopped kale
40g quinoa, uncooked
30g walnuts, chopped
@bypaperbeauty
I prefer to eat meals which
are delicious and do me
good, and this recipe does
just that. The quinoa and
feta are full of protein, the
nutrient-dense kale and
apple add to your daily
vitamin and fibre intake,
and the walnuts are
packed with healthy fats.
The best thing about this
recipe is that it gets better
if it’s made in advance.
You might want to add the
apple at the last minute if
you’re making it a couple
of days ahead, though.
016
Serves 2
#FitFoodBMF
70g feta, crumbled
1 small apple
2 tsp olive oil
1 tsp red wine vinegar
METHOD
1
2
Rinse your quinoa well, then add it to a pan along with double its volume in water (around 1/2 cup for this amount of quinoa).
Bring the pan to the boil, then reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat, then allow to stand for another 5 minutes so the quinoa continues
to steam. Allow the quinoa to cool.
3
Make the dressing by whisking together the olive oil and red wine vinegar. Drizzle this on the chopped kale, then mix well by crushing the leaves in your hands. Roughly crushing the kale allows the vinegar in the dressing to soften the leaves, making them easier to eat.
4
Chop the walnuts into small pieces, crumble the feta and stir it all together with the cooled quinoa and kale. If you’re going to eat the salad straight away, then chop the apple into small pieces and add that too. If not, sprinkle the
apple with lemon juice to stop it changing colour.
Ben Coomber says This dish makes
great use of apple
as it helps cut
through the fat
content in feta
and balances
out its saltiness.
It also gets the
thumbs up in
terms of healthy
omega-3 fats
within walnuts.

Thai Hot & Sour Chicken Soup (tom yum gai)

INGREDIENTS
2 chicken breast fillets
2 lemongrass stalks
1 medium sized ginger root
6 kaffir lime leaves
TWITTER
@LilyBlogsLife
I learnt this recipe in
a cooking school in
Bangkok, Thailand,
in 2013. Thai food is
extremely flavoursome
and this soup’s classic
Thai flavours always
remind me fondly of the
time I spent there eating
incredible street food.
This is a great option for
a healthy lunch with
a spicy kick. Plus,
I guarantee that your
kitchen will smell amazing
after you’ve made it!
018
Serves 4
#FitFoodBMF
1 tbsp fish sauce
1 lime
500ml chicken stock
2 tomatoes
Bunch of coriander
4 spring onions
1 tbsp Thai red chilli paste
4 tbsp coconut milk
6 bird’s eye chillies
METHOD
1
2

4
Chop the lemongrass into 2-inch pieces, cutting off the woody ends, then gently scrape the skin from the ginger with a metal spoon and cut it into coin-sized chunks.
Tear the kaffir lime leaves in half, cut the tomato into sixths, squeeze the juice from the lime and set aside for later.
Deseed and finely chop all of your bird’s eye chillies. For added spice, leave the seeds in one or two of the chillies.
Put the lemongrass, ginger, kaffir lime leaves, chillies and tomatoes into a large pan, along with the chicken stock,
and bring to the boil then turn it down to a medium-low heat.
5
Chop the chicken breast into thin strips and fry it in a separate pan on a high heat using low-fat oil until cooked through and light golden brown. Once this is ready, add it to the main pan along with the coconut milk, lime juice,
fish sauce and Thai chilli paste.
Allow to soup to simmer for another 10 minutes on a medium heat. While it’s on the hob, finely chop the
spring onions and roughly chop the coriander,
ready to garnish the soup.
Ben Coomber says -
Antioxidants,
phytonutrients, vitamins,
minerals, fibre; this dish
is packed with it all,
along with being
protein dense,
flavoursome, and
different. Perfect
as a winter
immunity booster!

Many of the soup’s ingredients are there to add flavour during cooking and will need to be taken out before serving. Some people do like to eat the cooked ginger but others prefer to pick that out, along with the
lemongrass and the kaffir lime leaves, which definitely shouldn’t
be eaten.
Ladle the soup into bowls, top with a handful of coriander and a sprinkle of spring onion.

While the vegetables are cooking, put the coriander, garlic, spices and lemon juice into a blender and blitz to a puree. Slowly add the olive oil and continue blending until you get a smooth, thick sauce.
In a dish, cover the tuna steaks with two thirds of the sauce, cover with cling film and leave to marinate in
the fridge for 20 minutes.
Dissolve the stock cube in 350ml boiling water. Put the
stock and the quinoa in a pan over a low heat and simmer gently for 10 minutes, or until the water has been absorbed
and the quinoa is soft. Add more water during cooking
if necessary.
Stir the roasted vegetables into the cooked quinoa.
Set aside with a lid on to keep warm.
Heat the oven to 200°C. Chop the courgette into half-inch slices and the peppers and red onion into 2-inch chunks.
Melt 1 tbsp coconut oil (or heat 1 tbsp olive oil) in a large roasting tray. Add the chopped vegetables and the whole tomatoes to the tray, season with sea salt and black pepper and roast in the oven for 30–40 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Ben Coomber says -
Using a rich marinade
with the fish will
add flavour, extra
nutrition, and
enjoyment to your
cooking. Crammed
full of protein, carbs
and vitamins, this
is a perfect meal
for all occasions.

Heat a griddle pan and cook the tuna steaks on a high heat for 60–90 seconds on each side for medium rare. If the steaks are thick, of if you want them well done, cook for up to 4 minutes on each side.
Serve the tuna alongside the quinoa and drizzle the remaining sauce on top.

2–3 sweet potatoes
2 potatoes
75g red lentils
@dressdiaries
Fitness is becoming a
regular feature on my
blog, The Dress Diaries and
when it comes to cooking,
I’m a huge fan of anything
that means leftovers. Pies,
stews and large dishes that
I can have for tea (dinner,
if you’re from the South)
for the rest of the week are
great for a busy lifestyle! A
personal favourite is this, a
good cottage pie with a
sweet potato twist.
1 onion, chopped
1 tbsp milk
Tip:
Don’t worry if you don’t
have carrots and lentils,
or you don’t have the
right amounts, any other
vegetables will work,
such as peas, sweetcorn,
and red onion.

Dice both kinds of potato and place them in a pan of water, bring to boil. Sweet potato tends to boil much quicker than white potato, so make these pieces
bigger than the latter.
As the potatoes are cooking, fry the chopped onion and mince in the sunflower oil on a high heat until brown and cooked through.
Add the chopped carrots and lentils to the frying pan
and simmer for 5–10 minutes – it’ll cook thoroughly in the oven later.
Tip your mince and vegetable mixture into a shallow, ovenproof dish.
When the potatoes are boiled and soft, drain thoroughly and mash together with the milk.
Add the mash topping to the dish, until even and covering all of the mince mixture. Run a fork through in horizontal
lines to create a nice, crispy topping.
Bake in the oven for 20–30 minutes, until the mash is golden
and crispy.

#FitFoodBMF
Pre-heat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan assisted).
Serve and enjoy. Gravy and boiled or steamed green
vegetables complement it well.
Ben Coomber says -
I love this dish,
especially as it shows
how easily swaps can

as well as how oneingredient foods

1 can chopped tomatoes
100g beetroot, chopped
Handful spinach

Add the turkey mince and a teaspoon of each spice. Stirring occasionally to break the mince up and mix
in the spice.
Finely chop the garlic and onion and add to a heated
pan with the coconut oil, sautéing until soft.
As the turkey starts to colour, add the beans, tinned tomatoes and puree.
Stir in the vegetables, chocolate and spices, adding a teaspoon in between tastings to help you gauge how
much to add.
Leave to simmer for 10 minutes and prepare your quinoa. Bring 1 cup of quinoa to the boil in 2 cups of water with
a couple of pinches of paprika. Leave to simmer until
the quinoa has absorbed roughly all the water.
Once everything is cooked you are ready to
serve – 1 portion of chilli to about 100g quinoa.
Tip: In place of the cannellini beans you can use
chickpeas, black-eyed beans, or even bortelli be
ans. Also for a lower carb option you could serve
with courgetti (shredded courgette) or caulirice
(grated cauliflower) in place of the quinoa.
Ben Coomber says -
This turkey chilli is a great
example of how low calorie food
can still be super tasty. Using
turkey over beef can quite often
save you 150-250 calories or
more per serving – perfect for
weight-loss!

1 can of chickpeas (400g)

2 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp ground cumin
3 tbsp dried oregano
1 tsp sea salt

FOR THE DRESSING

Pinch of sea salt
3 tbsp tahini
1 tbsp olive oil
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 tbsp runny honey (optional)
1–2 tbsp cold water, if needed

Preheat the oven to 200°C and line a baking tray with baking paper.
Arrange the chickpeas on the lined baking tray and drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil. On a separate baking tray, arrange the prepared butternut squash and trickle the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil on top.
Combine the cumin, oregano and sea salt in a small bowl. Divide the spice mixture in two, and sprinkle half
over the chickpeas, and half over the butternut squash.
5
Bake for 20 minutes, then remove from the oven to toss the chickpeas and butternut squash. This will ensure even cooking. Return to the oven and cook for 10–15 minutes more, or until the butternut squash is tender, and chickpeas are firm and crispy.
In the meantime, grind garlic and sea salt into a paste
using a pestle and mortar, or the back of a spoon in a bowl. Combine the paste with the tahini, lemon juice, olive oil and honey in a small bowl, thinning with the cold water if needed, 1 tbsp at a time, until pourable. Taste then adjust
the seasonings as required
Ben Coomber says - Butternut
squash is a good addition to a dish
as it’s got the texture and feel of a
starchy vegetable, but without the
same high calorie density. Great for
staying full as well as losing weight.
6
Once the butternut squash and chickpeas have finished roasting, let them rest for a few minutes. To serve, divide spinach between serving dishes and top with butternut squash and chickpeas. Drizzle generously with tahini dressing. Enjoy!
Tip: This is best when fresh, though leftovers will
keep refrigerated for 2–3 days. Also, vegans can
omit the honey or substitute it with maple syrup.

To make the ‘courgetti’, chop off both ends of the courgette and use a potato peeler to slice thin strips from one end to other so they resemble ribbons. You can turn the courgette and use a different edge once it gets too thick.
Once sliced, pile a few ribbons of courgette on top of each other and, using a small knife, cut thin strips from one end to the other until you have your spaghetti-looking courgetti.
030
Place in a small saucepan with the teaspoon of butter and leave on the side to heat up later.
For the bolognese, chop the vegetables and add to a heated frying pan with the mince and oil. Cook for around 5–6 mins, stirring occasionally to stop any sticking.
Add the tinned tomatoes, a splash of water, plus salt, pepper and mixed herbs to taste, then simmer for a further 4–5 minutes.
While your bolognese is simmering, place the courgetti saucepan over a low-medium heat and stir to allow the butter to melt and coat the courgetti.
When the courgette has softened, add a touch of salt and pepper and serve, laying the bolognese on top. Enjoy!
Ben Coomber says - This recipe
shows exactly how you can swap
ingredients and get exactly
what you need for your individual
requirements.
Plus it looks tasty,

I believe in a balanced

No fads, no elimination,
just moderation and
learning to give your
body what it needs,
when it needs it. I love
Cajun and Mexican

but they’re often carb
heavy and laden with
fat. So for a quick but
flavoursome mid-week

Cajun treat I turn to
these fish tacos.

1/4–1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp oregano
1 clove garlic, crushed
Watercress and fat-free

Pre-heat the oven to 150°C and the grill to a medium heat.
Grill the corn ears for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally.
Meanwhile, peel and c–be the mango and avocado,
then squeeze a little lemon juice over to stop them
going brown.
Dice and chop the onion and coriander and mix together in a bowl.
Heat the corn tortillas in the microwave until pliable, then stuff into the holes of a muffin tray to form a cone.
Pop in the oven to set them for 5–10 minutes.
Mix the dried spices and herbs with the garlic to make a rub, then coat both sides of the fish. Add a little oil to a griddle pan on a medium heat, then fry the fish for 2–3 minutes on each side – or longer if you have thicker fillets.
When corn is cooked through, remove it from the grill,
strip the kernels off with a knife then add to the onion
and coriander mix.
To serve, lay a small handful of watercress (if using) in the bottom of each tortilla shell, top with a spoonful of the salsa and break the fish up on top. Serve with the corn side salad and an optional dollop of yoghurt. Enjoy!
Ben Coomber says - This recipe is
AWESOME as it is packed with so
many healthy ingredients - fish
containing omega-3, avocado which is
loaded with healthy fats, and finally,
plenty of vitamin-rich vegetables.

Thai-Style Sweet

@Lucylovestoeat
I cooked my first meal
from the tender age
of 11, and my cooking
style is a reflection of my
dad’s traditional Chinese
cooking. For a healthy
weekday dinner when I
want something fast, I like
to make up this sauce
consisting of just three
condiments: Thai sweet
chilli sauce, fish sauce
and rice vinegar.
2 tsp rice vinegar
1 tsp oil
2 tbsp water
METHOD

#FitFoodBMF
Pour the sauce over the salmon fillets and rub so the fish is well marinated.
Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan on a high heat.
Take the salmon from the bowl, shake off the excess marinade, and put it in the pan skin-side down.
Don’t throw away the marinade as we will need this later
to make a glaze. As soon as the salmon is added to the `
pan, turn the heat down to low and cover the pan with a lid.
Slow fry for 5 minutes on one side then carefully flip it over and cook for a further 2 minutes.
Push the salmon over to one side of the pan, add the left over marinade into the centre of the pan with 2 tablespoons of water and turn the heat on high.
The marinade will bubble away and turn into a sticky glaze. Bring the salmon back to the middle of the pan and coat well with the glaze.

Rinse the salmon and put it in a large bowl ready for the marinade. Excess water is fine so there is no need to pat dry.
Combine the chilli sauce, fish sauce and rice vinegar together in a bowl and mix well.
034
Take off the heat and serve with boiled veg or salad of your choice. Rice is optional.
Ben Coomber says Making healthy food
interesting doesn’t have
to contain hundreds of
ingredients; sometimes the
simplest of dishes can be
the healthiest and most
flavour packed. This is an
example of just that!

INGREDIENTS
FOR THE LAMB
FOR THE AUBERGINE
FOR THE COUSCOUS
900g lamb, any cut
2 medium-large aubergines,
peeled
2 cups couscous
50ml extra-virgin olive oil, plus
1 can chickpeas
1 cup dates
1 cup dried apricots, halved
TWITTER
@BonnieHatcher
I‘m a London-based
lifestyle blogger with
an interest in food,
travel and sport.
Since returning from
Morocco at the end
of last year I’ve been
desperate to slow-cook
some lamb – Moroccan
style. This recipe takes
just minutes to prepare
(the slow cooker does
all the hard work) and
has always been a hit
for me amongst friends.
036
Serves 4
#FitFoodBMF
1 white onion, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1 heaped tbsp cornflour
(mixed in 1/2 cup water)
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground turmeric
1 tbsp for frying
2 cups hot chicken stock
2 cloves garlic,
chopped finely
3 small garlic cloves,
finely chopped
1 ‘glug’ of olive oil
1 tbsp finely chopped
fresh ginger
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground cinnamon
4 tbsp runny honey
2 tsp tomato paste
2 tsp smoked paprika
Yoghurt and parsley
or coriander to serve
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp sea salt
300ml hot lamb stock
1 tbsp runny honey
METHOD
1
As all this will take a day of cooking, preparation should ideally begin the night before: chopping all your ingredients, and storing them separately, covered in cling film,
in the fridge.
2
In the morning, put all the lamb recipe ingredients into a slow cooker, turn it to a low heat, pop on the lid and leave for around nine hours throughout the day.
Ben Coomber says -
Using a diverse mix of
ingredients, this dish is
essential to anyone that
is active as it is packed
full of micronutrients,
antioxidants and protein.
Also, a great one to
batch-produce for later!
3
4
In the evening, cut up your aubergines by halving them through the middle and slice each into 8 chunks. Add them to a well-oiled
roasting tin and bake in the oven
at 180°C for 45 minutes.
Pop all the remaining aubergine recipe ingredients in a pan over a medium heat and fry off ready for
the aubergines when they have finished roasting.
5
To cook the couscous, place it in a
large bowl and pour in the hot
stock. Cover with a tea cloth and leave for 5 minutes, then add the
chopped garlic and remaining ingredients and stir through.
To serve, plate the couscous and top
with the meat straight from the slow cooker and a sprinkle of chopped
parsley or coriander. Add the aubergine and a bowl of yoghurt and you’re ready to go.

until brown.
While your meat is simmering, slice the sweet potatoes in half and pop in the microwave for 7 minutes to soften, or heat them in the oven if you love your potatoes crispy.
Add the red peppers and passata to the frying pan. Don't be afraid to add more oil if necessary.
Add the beans and sweetcorn to the pan and chilli powder to taste.
Plate the potatoes, top with your chilli mix and add your salad, feta cheese and avocado on the side. Serve and enjoy!

Part of my personal
exercise regime sees me
training outside three times
a week. When it gets to
the winter, I look forward
to warm, comforting food
when I get home. This
dish is perfect for those
days. It’s also nutritionally
sound: a perfect blend
of proteins, complex
carbohydrates and fats, as
well as vitamins from
the vegetables
Serves 4
INGREDIENTS
400g lamb shoulder
1 can chickpeas,
drained and rinsed
1 1/2 can chopped tomatoes
2 celery sticks, chopped
4 carrots, chopped
1 sprig fresh rosemary
(or 1 tsp dried)
2 tbsp hot paprika
1 tbsp cumin
3 garlic gloves, chopped
1 onion, diced
Salt and pepper to season
100g quinoa
Seeds from one large
pomegranate
100g Greek yoghurt
4 handfuls of spinach
METHOD

If using a large pan, put on a low heat and keep an eye on it, as it needs to
simmers for around 8 hours. If using a slow cooker, you can leave it and crack
on with your day.

Dice the lamb, removing most of the excess fat, and place it in the slow cooker with the carrots and celery too.
#FitFoodBMF
Place your chopped tomatoes and chickpeas in the slow cooker, followed by the onion and garlic.
040
Add in the rosemary, cumin, paprika and salt and pepper, and mix to ensure the sauce coats everything.
Pop the lid on and cook on low for around 8 hours.
Once you’re 20 minutes off eating, place your quinoa in a pan with twice its volume of boiling water
and a pinch of salt, and cook until the water has absorbed.
Rinse in a sieve with hot water.
Whilst the quinoa is cooking, chop your pomegranate in
half and scoop out the seeds and mix into your quinoa.
Serve with 25g Greek yoghurt per person on the side,
and a generous handful of spinach.
Ben Coomber says From a recovery point
of view this meal ticks
all the boxes, as it is
packed full of protein,
carbs and flavour. Not
only that, but you can
also batch-produce
and save for later.
Win-win!

To make the sauce, blend all of the sauce ingredients together and spread evenly over each base.
To make the four bases divide the mix into 4 and blend
separately, this way you get 4 evenly sized protein bases.
Cook toppings separately while making the bases and sauce. This saves cooking time and ensures you don’t over cook the base and cheese.
Add the chopped toppings to the pizzas, making sure you
evenly distribute over all 4, then add the cheese.
Place in the over at 180°C for 8-12 minutes.
Just enough for the cheese to melt and brown.
Then simply slice, serve and enjoy!

Place half of the spinach in the bottom of a small
ovenproof dish and layer the mushrooms along with half of
the chorizo and spring onions on top.
Pre-heat your oven to 200°C and chop the mushrooms,
feta, chorizo and spring onion.
Cover with your preferred amount of passata – the more
you use the runnier the dish will be.
Make two dips in the ingredients in the dish and crack your
eggs into them.
Add the remaining chorizo, spring onion and season with
black pepper and put the rest of the spinach on top.
Chuck it in the oven for 10–15 minutes, or until the egg
whites are cooked. If you like your yolks runny, check after
10 minutes.
Then just plate up and enjoy!

Full of nutrients

Preheat the oven to 180°C (fan 160°C). Peel and chop the apples before placing them evenly across the base of a high-sided ovenproof dish, alongside the blackberries.
Chop the stem ginger and place in the base with the fruit, before adding the water over the top. I like to add a little syrup from the ginger over the fruit too for additional flavour.
Mix the flour, oats, almonds and sugar in a separate bowl. Cut the butter into small chunks and add it into the mix, using your fingertips to form a breadcrumb-like mixture.
Distribute the topping over the fruit. Do not pack it down tight, just let it sit over the top as this will form a better crumb. Bake in the oven for around an hour.
Serve and enjoy.
Ben Coomber says -
This gluten-free recipe has many
nutritional qualities as it is
comprised of single-ingredient foods.
Fruit is antioxidant rich, oats are
packed with fibre, and almonds are
rich in healthy fats.

Kidney beans give this

but be warned: these are
messy to eat so keep some
napkins handy.
1 yellow pepper
1 lime
3 tsp olive oil
Salt and pepper
1 lettuce
1 tsp Mexican spice mix
(see below or use a
packet fajita mix)
FOR THE MEXICAN SPICE MIX
2 tsp paprika

Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a saucepan on medium heat,
then add 3/4 of the peppers and cook for 4 minutes.
Add the tinned tomatoes, 1 tsp of the Mexican spice mix and a pinch of salt and pepper, then stir in 1/2 tsp sugar to bring out the natural sweetness of the tomatoes.
Leave the mixture to cook for a few minutes whilst you drain and rinse the kidney beans before adding 3/4 to the tomato sauce.
Cook for 10 minutes until the water has evaporated and a thick chunky salsa is left. Stir in 3/5 of the coriander and remove the salsa from the heat.
In a separate bowl, mix the remaining pepper, kidney beans and red onion. Then cut the lime into four wedges and queeze the juice of one into the mixture, before stirring in 2 tsp olive oil.
Add 1/5 coriander and season with salt and pepper.
Separate your lettuce leaves and carefully spoon in your salsa mix, taking care not to overfill them.
Dice the pepper and red onion and chop the coriander.
Finally, top with a little of the red onion mixture and garnish with remaining coriander.
Ben Coomber says Mexican cooking uses
spicy and sour flavours
to balance what can
often be bland foods,
such as chicken and
beans. This dish, as a
result, is nutritionally
balanced as well as
bursting with flavour.

To make the caramel, add the coconut sugar, syrup, salt and coconut oil to a saucepan and stir on a low heat until the mixture starts to bubble.
Take off the heat and add your peanut butter and milk to the mixture and stir together.
Pour your popcorn into the mixture – making sure it’s coated in the caramel sauce.
Line a tray or container with baking paper and pour the popcorn mixture in.
Pack the mixture tightly – it needs to stick together so the bars hold their shape.
Sprinkle with salt and pop into the fridge.
For the optional chocolate drizzle, heat the oil and stir in the cacao powder. When combined, set aside – the longer you leave it, the thicker it will become.
Bring the popcorn bars out of the fridge and drizzle the chocolate over the top and place them back in the fridge so the chocolate can harden.
052
Once your mixture has set, you can then cut into bars or small bites. Enjoy!
Ben Coomber says -
This could be a great alternative
to other carbohydrate-dense foods

Grind the seeds, oats and salt in a grinder or food

Add the eggs and milk and blend to a smooth batter.
Heat a teaspoon of butter or coconut oil in a frying pan and add the batter one tablespoon at a time. Depending on the size of your pan you should be able to cook several pancakes at one time.
Once brown at edges and there’s no liquid in the centre, turn and cook the other side.
Serve with the berries, yoghurt and cinnamon.

To make the granola, mix the oatmeal, 3 tbsp of the honey, the butter and salt together with your fingers. Roast in the oven at 170°C for about 10–12 minutes until it is golden
brown. Leave to cool.
Mix the Skyr with the lime zest and the remaining
tablespoon of honey – you can even add a little lime juice
for extra flavour.
In another bowl, mix the blueberries with the mint.
Layer everything in glass bowls or glasses and enjoy
as a light snack. Or it can work as a dessert or breakfast.

fresh and nourishing
flavour, but in the
