A little spring refresh for your dinner rotation
|
Hello! Isn't it nice having a bit more daylight in the evenings? Now that spring is well and truly here, I'm finding myself in the mood for dinners that are a little lighter, a little more colourful, and don't involve spending ages in the kitchen. So I've pulled together three family dinners that fit the bill. Different flavours, different ingredients, and all easy enough for a weeknight. Something fresh: Baked Teriyaki SalmonThis is such a lovely one-tray dinner. Salmon, broccolini and edamame bake together in a homemade teriyaki sauce, and all you need is some rice on the side. It's ready in around 20 minutes, which makes it particularly handy on busy evenings. π Make the Baked Teriyaki Salmonβ
Something full of flavour: Chicken CouscousThis one-pan chicken couscous is packed with flavour from chorizo, chickpeas and spinach. It's ready in under 30 minutes, and the pearl couscous cooks right in the pan with everything else. I love a dinner that doesn't leave a mountain of dishes behind! π Make the Chicken Couscousβ
Something a little different: Mini MeatloavesWho says meatloaf has to be one big loaf? These individual mini meatloaves cook on the same tray as potatoes, carrots and broccoli, making them a really practical family dinner. They're made with beef mince and grated veggies, and the smaller portions are fun for kids too. π Make the Mini Meatloavesβ
And there we have it - three ideas to bring a little variety to the dinner table this week. Here's to longer evenings, less time cooking and more time enjoying them. Stacey |

Hello! Well, we're one week into Term 4 already! Hopefully everyone's settling back into the school routine after the holidays. Although I have to say, it doesn't take long for the novelty of packing lunchboxes to wear off, does it? And with the end-of-year busyness starting to creep in, I'm all for keeping things simple. So if your lunchbox inspiration could do with a little boost, I've got three ideas for you this week. π Something savoury: Pizza Muffins Pizza flavours in muffin form? Yes...
Hello! One of my favourite things about school holiday lunches? They don't have to survive a lunchbox. No worrying about whether it'll go soggy, stay warm, get squashed or come home completely untouched. So while we've still got another week of school holidays ahead of us, I thought I'd share three easy lunches that are particularly good when the kids are home - warm, quick and just a little more fun than the usual sandwich. π When you need lunch NOW: Pizza Toast This is barely a recipe -...
