An old time family favourite. This is a great way to use excess capsicums while serving vegetable rich meal onto the dinner table. These stuffed capsicums are wonderful when served straight out of the oven, but are even better the next day!

Seasonal vegetables can either be the hero of a vegetarian meal, or a wonderful side dish to accompany your chosen protein. Sometimes you just have to hide vegetables to pack a recipe with added nutrition. There is so much you can do with the humble vegetable. Don’t just boil it up or steam it. Try one of these vegetable recipes to add extra flavour or goodness into your next meal.
Tomato Soup
If you’re after a nourishing yet simple soup for the family, this is for you. The use of fresh tomato puree in this recipe is what sets this soup apart from the tinned tomato soups you buy from the supermarket.
Tomato Puree
My mum stocked up our freezer with tomato pur̩e when tomatoes were plentiful in the garden. She used this to make soups, pasta sauce and stews. The flavour is amazing when you make it yourself Рfresher and more intense tasting compared to the pur̩e or passata you buy in jars.
Cucumber Salad
This is a salad my mum used to make regularly because dad always grew far too many cucumbers in the garden. It’s a light salad to eat with a tangy flavour. Add or omit other vegetable ingredients to make this salad your own.
Crumbed Cauliflower
A vegetarian meal that is so simple yet a family favourite in our household. My two kids adore these – especially when they can dip the cauliflower into tartare sauce!
Zucchini Slice
I love sneaking in grated zucchini into my meals for extra goodness but this dish uses them as the core ingredient. An easy recipe to whip together that your whole family will enjoy.
