This exceptionally simple yet moreish Broccoli Salad is the yummiest thing I have tasted this year! It has the perfect combination of flavours and textures and the dressing, the dressing! Don’t get me started on the dressing! You just have to try it for yourself. It is lunch, it is dinner, it is a side…

Vegan Coleslaw
You’re probably thinking how on earth do you make a Vegan coleslaw? No Mayonnaise? I thought the exact same thing but let me tell you, this coleslaw is simply delicious. Instead of mayonnaise, we use a creamy cashew nut dressing with all sorts of sweet and tangy ingredients. Eating coleslaw has never been more exciting!!…
Hummus and Chickpea Salad Dip
This delicious platter of hummus and chickpeas, loaded with salad, is one of my favourite dishes for entertaining – and it’s perfect for vegans too! Firstly, it looks so pretty and secondly it’s completely and utterly moreish. It feeds 4-6 adults as a starter / appetiser and I highly recommend it for your next book…
Beetroot Salad with Honey & Mustard Dressing
Beetroot. Gross, right? I know, that is totally what I used to think too. And then I actually tasted beetroot, beetroot that was slow roasted with butternut together with creamy feta cheese and OMG. I completely converted on the spot. Soon after my beetroot conversion, I discovered this power salad at my son’s school –…
Bacon & Broccoli Salad (Yum!!)
Let’s talk about this salad. We first met in a home industry shop. Unlikely place to meet the salad of your dreams, I know. And funnily enough it was just sitting out on the counter as though it were a piece of cake or something. It looked healthy and I was SO hungry and I…

Warm Butternut, Feta and Pecan Nut Salad
It was my birthday yesterday and it was such a glorious day I tell you. Glorious because the sun was a-shining so brightly and so warmly and there was cake, chocolate cake. And did you know that on your birthday, you are allowed to have 3 servings of cake, with one serving being equal to…

Curried Chicken Salad
I made this salad for my husband the other day for lunch. At first he turned his nose up at the thought of a salad with raisins and celery, well actually it was more like a “eeeuw” expression. Well, once he tasted it, he wolfed it down! And so did I! The combination of spicy…
Mediterranean Cous Cous Salad
I’ve never really been too good at cooking cous cous but I’ve finally learnt how! Oh my and it is so easy!! Ridiculously so! You literally just cover it with boiling water (just enough to cover the top) and leave it to stand until all the water has gone. Okay so this salad has an…
