Easier said than done I can tell you.
I've been trying out new soup recipes, which I can just about survive on for a lunch, but by dinner I am craving something a bit more, well, substantial.
BUT, I don't want to completely blow the day's good effort.
It can be difficult.
Last weekend I received this fantastic new cookbook from Yeo Valley...
It is packed full of mouthwatering recipes and images inspired by their very own dairy, farmyard and veg garden. Recipes are clear and easy to follow with the majority showing a finshed product image - I always like this as it gives me something to aim for! The dishes that leapt out at me included Crunchy apple & raspberry granola, Blue cheese & leek tart in cheesy oatmeal pastry, Lemon curd & raisin bread & butter pudding and Chicken & mushroom lasagne.
However, due to it's vegetable content and lack of major carbs, I tackled the.....
...Courgette, tomato & roasted red pepper gratin.
