Seasonal vegetables can either be the hero of a vegetarian meal, or a wonderful side dish to accompany your chosen protein.

Try one of these vegetable recipes to add extra flavour or goodness into your next meal.
Cauliflower Pizza Base
A fabulous way to eat a normally carb heavy meal that is completely gluten free. A great alternative if you’re wanting a more guilt free pizza for dinner.
Ratatouille
A hearty dish that is great at using up several vegetables in your fridge. Serve the ratatouille with brown rice and herb coated chicken or turkey for a delicious meal.
Roasted Pumpkin Soup
I normally make a plain pumpkin soup but this time I decided to jazz it up by slow roasting the pumpkin, onion and garlic beforehand. Roasting the veggies gives them a different dimension and makes this classical soup a little more special.
Turnip & Miso Risotto
This recipe combines old with new, and Italian with Japanese. It’s a wacky to bring all these together but it does work! Have this risotto as a side with lamb or eat it as the main meal. If you find yourself with a turnip, give this recipe a go!
Baked Parmesan Zucchini
A super simple way to serve zucchini with the family meal that isn’t just steamed or boiled. It’s quick to make and definitely tasty which means the downside is you’ll run out of it in lightning speed!
Bean Salad
A different kind of salad. I love some of the salads from my childhood. Mum would, of course, make the regular green leaf salad. She did, however, have a few other salads that were less common among her group friends. More often than not, it was these salads she found perfect to pull out when entertaining….
Crunchy Tuna Salad
This is a super tasty salad that is great any time of the year. Made with cabbage, carrots and red onion, this crunchy tuna salad will leave you happily satisfied.
