Magic Sausage & Cabbage Supper
Cabbage is one of the most underrated vegetables. It's Low Carb, super nutritious, generally available year round, keeps in the fridge for weeks and weeks, and if cooked properly it's super delicious. I love it raw shaved into salads or 'slaw.
Smoky Roast Mushroom Bowls
Mushrooms are one of my favourite veg. I love their earthy flavour and meaty texture. Normally I stick to the classic garlic and thyme to flavour them. But for some reason a few weeks ago I thought I'd experiment with Spanish-syle smoked paprika.
Curry Stuffed Eggplant with Yoghurt
Roast eggplant halves are my favourite go-to low carb alternative to stuffed baked potatoes or sweet potato. Not only are they easier on the carbs, they’re also quicker to cook!

Wonderful Cabbage Wedges
Cabbage has to be one of the most underrated vegetables. It’s just so versatile going from fresh and crunchy in salads to soft and melting when cooked. Not to mention that it keeps for weeks, if not months in the fridge. I always have a cabbage on hand. Literally always.
Zucchini Falafels
One of my all-time most memorable meals happened in a back alley in Amman – the capital of Jordan.
Lime & Chipotle Chilli Chicken
Years ago when I was backpacking in Mexico I came home with my bag significantly heavier. No normal souvenirs for this food lover. Instead I packed as many cans of chipotle chillies in adobo sauce as I could fit.

My Irishman loves leeks.
Eggplant Steaks with Parmesan Peas
The secret for really lovely eggplant steaks is the same as regular beef steaks. Cut them thickly! Although for the eggplant it’s best to cook on a low-medium heat so the middles get to go all lovely and melting and the outsides avoid over-charring.
Zucchini Pizza
As much as I love Cauliflower Pizza, there was one big problem with it.
Spiced Eggplant with Yoghurt & Quinoa
