I've been making ' paella recipe for YEARS and it has never let me down. 😍 I make this when we have people over for dinner loads too and it's always a hit. Add tzatiki 🌱 and toasted pitta 🫓 and it's honestly next level. 🤤
---
Recipe:
Fry 1x diced onion 🧅, 3x crushed garlic cloves 🧄 and 100g chorizo (sliced or diced, whatever you fancy) in low calorie cooking spray for 2 mins. Add I. 2x large diced chicken breasts 🍗 and cook for 10 minutes or so. Throw in 2x tsp paprika, 1x tsp tumeric, 1x tsp cumin, 1x tsp coriander, a pinch of salt 🧂, pepper and saffron (if you've got it, I've made this without before too) and mix well, then add in 1x diced pepper 🫑, 100g halved cherry tomatoes 🍅, 300g paella rice 🍚 and 2x tbsp tomato puree and mix everything together. Next, pour over enough chicken stock to cover the rice (I use about 1.5litres in total, in batches) and simmer, stirring every now and then, until the liquid has been absorbed. Repeat until you're out of stock and the paella rice is soft. Serve with lemon wedges 🍋 (and make sure you squeeze some lemon juice over the top, it's a game changer) and fresh parsley and enjoy. 🥰

One of the tastiest chicken + pasta combos I've ever made, this one is a must-try! 🤤
---
Recipe:
Butterfly your chicken breasts 🍗 and dip in beaten egg. Mix together 40g golden breadcrumbs 🍞, 20g finely grated parmesan 🧀, 1x tsp smoked paprika, 1x tsp oregano, 1/2x tsp thyme and a pinch of salt and pepper (for two breasts, double up to make more) and coat your chicken. Pop in the air fryer with some low calorie cooking spray and cook for approx. 17 minutes (or until chicken is cooked - time will vary depending on your air fryer. You could also pop in the oven if preferred 🥰). Meanwhile, fry 1x diced onion 🧅 and 3x cloves of crushed garlic 🧄in low calorie cooking spray with 1x tsp of basil, salt and pepper for 5 mins, until softened, and pop your spaghetti on to boil according to the packet instructions. Add around 150ml of the pasta water to your softened onion and garlic, then stir in 2x tbsp of reduced fat red pesto 🌱. Next, spread another tbsp of pesto over each of your butterflied chicken breasts, top with 30g reduced fat mozzarella 🧀 and some pepperoni and pop back into the air fryer for 2 mins or so, to melt the cheese. Add 100ml single cream to your pesto & onion mixture to make your pasta sauce, mix well and add the cooked spaghetti and toss until well coated. Serve all together with some fresh basil and enjoy! 😍 Let me know if you try it. X

I adore spinach & ricotta stuffed pasta but it's just so bloody fiddly! I couldn't be bothered messing around with it this time so whipped up a much easier version and it was downright incredible. 😍 It's definitely worth a try (especially if you're like me and don't have the patience/ time to hand-stuff pasta!) Also, this would work with any type of pasta, it doesn't have to be conchigle. 👍

Recipe:
Pan-fry 1x diced onion 🧅 and 2x tsp crushed garlic 🧄 in low calorie cooking spray with a splash of water for 5 mins, until softened. Add in 1x tsp mixed Italian herbs, 1x tsp basil 🌱, salt 🧂 and pepper, mix well then pour over 500ml passata 🍅 with 1x tbsp balsamic vinegar and 1x tbsp sweetner, stir and simmer for 10 mins. Meanwhile, cook your pasta according to the packet instructions.
Next, grab your spinach, chuck it into a colander and pour over a kettle of boiling water 💦 until it's wilted. Set aside to cool, then use kitchen roll to pat dry and remove the moisture. Chop up (scissors make it easier ✂️) and mix with 175g ricotta and a pinch of salt and pepper. Once your pasta is cooked, add it to your tomato sauce and stir until everything is covered then pop into a baking dish with 140g reduced fat mozzarella 🧀 on top and bake for 10 or so mins, until melted. Add more fresh basil on top and enjoy!

One of my go-to meals when I want a bit of a treat and just cannot be bothered to cook. This combo is super quick and absolutely delicious. 😍
---
I pop whatever salad I have in a bowl, top with nachos, cooked refried beans and BBQ pulled pork, followed by plenty of cheese and literally shove it in the microwave for a minute or two to melt it. 👍 Topped with coriander 🌱, guacamole-style topping 🥑, reduced fat sour cream & salsa 🍅.

I'm all about comfort food at the moment. 😍 We're back from a busy weekend in Bath and focusing on sorting out the house and catching up on editing, hiding out from the rain with lots of coffee. ☕ To be fair, I'm not complaining!
---
Recipe:
Mix 500g lean beef mince 🥩 with 1x small egg, mixed Italian herbs 🌱, onion granules & garlic granules, combine well and mould into balls (I made 16). Pop on a baking tray lined with baking paper and sprayed with low calorie cooking spray and bake for 35 mins, turning halfway through. Meanwhile, fry 1x diced onion 🧅 and 1x tsp smoked garlic 🧄 for 5 mins until softened, then add in 1x tsp basil, 1x tsp mixed Italian herbs, salt & pepper and stir well, then pour in 500g passata 🍅. Add in a dash of balsamic vinegar and a tbsp of sweetener and simmer for 10-15 mins. Boil your spaghetti (300g) according to the packet instructions. Once cooked, drained the spaghetti and mix with the sauce, then divide between four bowls, top with the cooked meatballs and a little finely grated cheddar & parmesan and enjoy! 🥰

This was so, so tasty and really easy to make if you fancy a quick fakeaway! 😍
---
Recipe:
Pan-fry 3x crushed garlic cloves 🧄, 1x onion 🧅 and 300g mixed frozen veg 🌽 in low calorie cooking spray for around 3 mins, then add in 2x diced salmon fillets 🐟 and 200gx green beans 🫛 (chopped into thirds) and fry for 10 minutes or so, until the salmon is cooked. Meanwhile, boil 300g long grain rice 🍚 according to the packet instructions. While everything is cooking, mix together 4x tbsp sweet chilli sauce, 4x tbsp dark soy sauce, 2x tsp light soy sauce, 1x tbsp sesame oil and a pinch of chilli flakes. Add your drained, cooked rice to the pan and chuck 2x eggs 🥚 into a hole in the centre. Wait until they start to cook and then scramble amongst the rice until no liquid remains. (I was making a portion for B too so set some of the rice aside at this age and just added a drop of soy sauce and sweet chilli in a separate bowl and mixed up for her. 👌) Next, add the sauce to your salmon fried rice and cook for 3-5 minutes until everything is fully coated. Serve with some fresh coriander 🌿 and sesame seeds. Approx. 634kcals.
