Shakshuka, the Middle-Eastern delight, where eggs are poached in a tomato-based dish, has been taken to the next level in this recipe by the addition of courgetti – which took the world by storm from dieters, low-carbers and those gluten-intolerant folks looking for a healthy alternative to spaghetti. Thankfully, there is no need for a spiralizer, as most supermarkets sell them ready-made these days (which is pretty eggciting), so all you need to do is follow this super-simple, low-calorie recipe and you will be Middle-Feasting on this perfect meat-free Monday supper in no time at all.

These healthy and delicious turkey lettuce boats are quick and easy to make and full of so much flavour. They make a great appetiser for when you’re cooking for friends and family or an equally satisfying lunch. They’re delicious, light and a great low carbohydrate recipe. We’ve served ours with a dash of Greek yoghurt and some pumpkin seeds on top.

Slow cookers are so great for those times when you want a fuss-free dinner, you can literally throw everything in it and leave it all day so you have a lovely wholesome meal waiting for you at tea time. We left this stew in the slow cooker for 8 hours on a low heat but if you want it ready bit sooner than that you can turn the heat up to medium and it should be ready in about 4 hours. Hope you like it

For a smooth start to your day try this banana and coconut smoothie. If you love thick and creamy smoothies, then this one will go down a treat. It’s really healthy too and is full of potassium, fibre, vitamin c, magnesium and folate. We’ve used coconut cream in this recipe, which is the cream from the top of a can of full fat coconut milk that has been left refrigerated.

Here’s another healthy and delicious recipe that we’ve developed for Fertility Road magazine. This simple frittata recipe is jam packed with nutrition and contains so many nutrients, which are important for conception. Eggs are such a great source of protein and iron (which are both really important nutrients for fertility). In addition they are also a fantastic source of vitamin D. Women who struggle with fertility often suffer from a deficiency in vitamin D. Broccoli is a good source of vitamin C, folate, calcium, iron, zinc and fibre. Vitamin C is particularly important for improving sperm quality in men and it also helps reduce the chance of miscarriage and chromosomal problems for women. Salmon is another great protein source and is rich in so many nutrients but particularly omega-3 fatty acids, which are proven to regulate blood flow to the reproductive organs.

Rice paper is a healthy low calorie option in comparison to other wheat based products. This delicate translucent dumpling allows the diner to see the colourful nutritious vegetables which are bursting with vitamins. Another serving option is to create a rice wrap by leaving the one end open allowing the vegetables to cascade on to the plate creating a delicious display.

First time to make Swedish pancakes, it was so much fun to watch this petite pancakes being browned and puffed in the pan. I made a blueberry sauce that tasted fruity, refreshing and delicious with these warm pancakes. With a cup of orange juice, our breakfast was well served.

A delicious and filling vegetarian main dish. Meaty mushrooms, rigatoni tomatoes veggies and two kinds of cheese make this a pleasing hearty main dish.

A great little salad is perfect to be aside with grilled sausages.

Very, very good. I used 1/2 semi sweet and 1/2 bittersweet - more of a sophisticated flavor. It was yummy. Stick to the milk chocolate or semi-sweet for the kids though. Besides a variety of fruit, I bought those little creme puffs in the freezer section - they were delicious dipped in the chocolate!
