Rough-Cut Lasagna Pasta with Sardines and Roasted Eggplant Sauce
Lasagna sheets broken into uneven ribbons catch a thick sauce of roasted tomatoes, eggplant and onion. Oat cream softens the tomato’s acidity, while sardines added at the end stay in pieces.
Smoky Tempeh Quinoa Bowls with Kimchi and Chipotle Cashew Sauce
Roasted tempeh and peppers sit over broth-cooked quinoa with edamame, sharp vegan kimchi, and a smoky chipotle cashew sauce. It's full of plant protein and will keep you full ALL DAY.
Whole-Wheat Spaghetti with Roasted Tomato Mascarpone Sauce and Sardines
Roasted tomatoes, carrots, onion, and garlic blend into a thick, naturally sweet sauce with mascarpone. Sardines are warmed through at the end so they stay in tender pieces rather than disappearing into the pan.
Whole Wheat Tagliatelle with Chorizo and Roasted Vegetable Oat Cream Sauce
Whole wheat tagliatelle is coated in a thick roasted tomato, carrot and red pepper sauce, softened with oat cream. Crisp-edged chorizo and sweet onion bring smoky depth and a little bite to the finished pasta.
Lemony Halloumi Tray Bake with Chickpeas and Summer Vegetables
Crisp-edged potatoes and chickpeas share the tray with tender zucchini, sweet red bell pepper, split cherry tomatoes, and browned halloumi. Lemon zest and juice sharpen the salty cheese and the sweet roasted vegetables.
Braised Red Cabbage and Apple with Roasted Potatoes with quorn burgers
This is the kind of dish I really didn’t like as a kid, but adulthood does strange things to you: somehow, I now love cabbage. The cabbage cooks down into something glossy, sweet-sharp, and deeply savory, while the apples soften just enough to melt into the pan without disappearing completely. Roasted potatoes alongside make it substantial in the best family-table way. It sit very happily next to my Quorn Red Bean Burgers.
Liège-Style Meatballs with Oven-Roasted Potatoes, Because Restraint Is Not Very Belgian
A lighter, weeknight-friendly take on boulettes liégeoises that still respects the spirit of the original: tender beef meatballs, a glossy sweet-tangy onion and apple sauce, and crisp oven-roasted potatoes instead of a deep-fryer situation. It is still comfort food, just with slightly less collateral damage.
Chocolate-Yacon Almond Butter
A simple homemade almond butter blended until silky, then nudged into deeper territory with a little cocoa powder and yacon syrup at the end. It is rich, roasty, and far more interesting than another sad swipe of plain spread pretending to be a personality. Nutritionally, almonds bring healthy unsaturated fats, fiber, and plant protein, while the cocoa powder adds a darker edge and extra polyphenols. Using nuts as the star keeps the recipe plant-forward and aligned with an Eat-Lancet style way of eating: satisfying, practical, and lighter on the planet than dairy-heavy spreads.
