5 Healthy 5-Ingredient Dinners: Week 36

NOTE: Don’t feel like you’re supposed to make all these recipes. Choose just one to experiment with each week.

MONDAY​​

Halloumi + Cabbage Hash​

OK so full credit. This idea for this delicious combo came from David at Green Kitchen Stories.

He posted his version ​on Instagram​, I made an instant mental note to create my own more simple recipe.

So glad I did.

My Irishman and I couldn’t get enough of it when we had it for brunch one Sunday.

TUESDAY​

Green Curry Stir Fry​

The idea for using Thai green curry paste as a sauce to season a stir fry came from my favourite food writer, Nigel Slater. To be honest I wasn’t sure it would be very good but as usual when I trust St. Nigel everything turns out much more delicious that expected.

WEDNESDAY​

Hearty Walnut, Kale & Goats Cheese Frittata​

I love a good frittata at any time. But this one with walnuts and kale is especially substantial and fab for a meat-free dinner where you won’t be missing the meat (my Irishman didn’t). It’s also good for lunches the next day.

And I love that it’s a complete meal on its own. No need to add a sauce or side salad.

THURSDAY​

​Summer Meatballs​

I don’t know about you but I tend to think of meatballs as a wintery type dish. But they can be given a summery makeover. All it takes is a super fresh lemony sauce and serving on a bed of baby spinach instead of the more usual, hearty meatball accompaniments.

FRIDAY

Fish with Olive Lemon Salsa​

The flavours in this salsa are big, bold and fresh so best suited to your more meaty fish steaks or oily fish like salmon. But it’s also amazing with pork chops or some good quality sausages. And of course you could always serve it with good old chicken.

SWEET TREAT​

No-Bake Chocolate Cherry ‘Cake’

It’s an awesome stress-free dinner party show-stopper because you can make it ahead. It’s super rich so serve dainty slices… You can always go back for seconds!
