Quinoa with stir-fried winter veg
11 comments
"I loved this - just made it now as a way of using up some veg (had broccoli and carrots and used red onion in place of the leeks) I love quinoa for summer packed lunch salads but was looking for something more 'comforting' for the winter. I was a bit dubious how tasty this would be but it was lovely: I think the sun dried tomatoes are the key and really lift the flavour (I threw in a few extra as it was the end of the jar). Chop the broccoli into tiny florets or it's a bit crunchy, even for someone who loves their veg al dente like me. This will definitely become a regular and it's a bonus it's so healthy."

"Saw this recipe and thought it would be a good starter when I have guests over the Christmas period so had a trial this evening - was very simple and very tasty! Points to note - think it needed a little more salt and a bit more vanilla (my vanilla pod was small so I think I should have used a whole one). My puree wasn't quite smooth enough but can easily whizz it more next time (used a hand blender). Nice and light too, which is a bonus during the over indulgence at Christmas. Definitely one to add to my repertoire."

"This is a great recipe - had some reduced price pork mince and made one and half times the quantity meat balls with double quantity sauce (which turned out to be a good move as the sauce is really yummy). I sent my daughter back to college with pots of balls in sauce to freeze. She has asked for more! They freeze well and heat up easily on the hob or in the microwave. Add lots of fresh basil. A real winner and great with any sort of pasta - good for everyday or having people for supper."

One-pan salmon with roast asparagus

"This has become a regular in our house - so quick (and all in one dish) and easy but the flavours go together really well. Was doubtful about the basil but really lifts the dish."
