Pesto Style Dip
Description
Salad is wonderful - all that lovely raw food!  We particularly enjoy shredding red cabbage into ours.  However, when you're avoiding oily dressings, a salad can leave you hungry again too quickly.  It was with this dilemma in mind that we created this garlicky, creamy pesto style dip.
Ingredients
  • 100g cashews
  • Cup of fresh basil leaves
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp onion granules
  • 1 clove garlic
  • Drop of water
Directions
Blend all of the ingredients together until you reach a consistency you like.  We didn't add much water, just enough to allow the blender to do its thing.

(Not) Keema Peas
 Quick, easy, nutritious and filling!

This dish is a gently spiced lentil and pea curry that goes beautifully with rice, potatoes or naan bread.  It's great as a lunch or when you need an ultra-fast meal as it does not require any chopping.  The spice level can be geared up or down depending on preference by changing from a mild curry powder to medium or hot.
This dish can be made even more nutritious by adding some baby spinach.

10 Minute Mushroom & Wild Rice
Lunch in our household has to be a quick affair.  However, during this cold weather it's so nice to have hot, freshly prepared food rather than a sandwich.

If looking to boost this meal further, you could add petits pois and broccoli.
