Full disclosure: The inspiration for this delicious one pot wonder didn’t come from my brain alone. It was a creation I made with my students in our 21-Day Confident Cook Adventure live cook-a-long session. Of course I had an inkling that this Broccoli Tuna Recipe would be good.
My air fryer spent a good few years banished in the shed. But the reason it now has a place in my kitchen is this salmon with crispy skin.
Imagine this. It’s a rainy Wednesday. You’ve had a long day. You’re tempted to grab a pizza to ‘reward’ yourself. But then you remember you have salmon and broccoli in the freezer.
I’m so glad a bottle of Teriyaki sauce happened to find its way into my shopping cart about 6 months ago.
Meet your new best friend.
When it’s been a long day (and even when it hasn’t) I LOVE an ‘oven supper’.
Have you ever got to the end of a long day and wished that dinner would just cook itself?
I’ve completely changed my tune about cauliflower rice.
We have the marvelous Mark – long term and prolific Simple Meal Plans member to thank for this idea.
If you’re dairy-free (even if you aren’t) you’re going to love, love, love this Lime Cashew Sour Cream Substitute Sauce.
OK I know what you’re going to think when you look at the ingredients list…
Ever since I realised that you don’t need to make them in advance, I’ve been getting more and more into flavoured butters.
If you love ginger like I do, you have to make this ASAP!
I was talking to an Irish politician at a dinner a few weeks ago.
One of my favourite Low Carb tricks is to take classic Italian pasta dishes and switch the pasta for cooked veggies.
A few weeks ago my Irishman was telling Fergal about the time he had his first real Italian pizza. In Napoli.
For years and years this tuna sauce was my favourite-go to for a quick weeknight pasta. And then I stopped eating pasta. Which meant I forgot about the sauce.
Rosemary and fish may not be a common flavour pairing. But trust me, it’s seriously delicious.
I’ve been more than a little obsessed with broccoli ‘bowls’ in recent months. I love cooking up a big batch of Beautiful Boiled Broccoli on the weekend to use during the week. It only takes 5 minutes to chop and 5 minutes to cook and it means I’m eating a lot more broccoli!
OMG these walnut crumbs are the bomb! And you know the secret ingredient? Yes our friend the anchovy. Love how they add a deep salty complexity to the walnuts without being overtly fishy.
I’ve been really getting into grated raw zucchini as an ingredient. I love the mild ‘greenish’ flavour but the best part is all the moisture in the zucchini keeps your salad or whatever lovely and moist. My Irishman had this salad for lunch at work and he was raving about it so much he took a photo and sent it to me. High praise indeed!
Another brilliant simple dinner inspired by my lovely friend Clotilde’s book Tasting Paris. If you’re a Francophile like me you really should treat yourself to a copy. It’s wonderful insight into the Paris food scene through the eyes of a local.
So full confession, I stole the name of my recipe from my friend Alexx’s brilliant book Low Tox Life. However this actual recipe is all my own doing.
Egg fried rice is one of my favourite go-to meals for small boys (and big Irishmen)! So I’m always looking for ways to tweak it and make it more exciting.
