Falafel are so easy and tasty and a great way to eat legumes. Each falafel has about 5g plant protein!
Zucchini & Potato in tomato salsa
My roast zucchini, potatoes and pumpkin in tomato salsa. Looks so beautiful. So easy and tasty. In Greek it's called "Briam". Traditionally pumpkin is not used but I have added it here for variety. Instead of pumpkin you could add butter beans (from a can, drained) in centre of pan for some plant protein!
Cauliflower in tomato salsa
Tired of eating steamed or roast veggies? Try cooking veggies the Mediterranean way...in a tomato salsa (also known as sofrito).
The nutrients/antioxidants are better absorbed from vegies when cooked this way. I cooked cauliflower and peas this way tonight.
Green beans in tomato salsa
My Greek Mediterranean green bean stew cooked in tomato salsa/sofrito and fresh herbs. So tasty and such an easy way to get your 5 serves of veg!
You can cook any veggies in sofrito e.g cauliflower, peas, eggplant. You can also add a can of drained butter beans for extra protein for a vegan meal.
Low carb lupin lemon & rosemary cake
My delicious low carb lupin lemon cake with chia and rosemary and is wheat free. The rosemary is surprisingly complementary with the lemon. Perfect for breakfast with a coffee. It is nutritious, high in fibre and protein. Who said cake can't be healthy!
Low carb brownies
Healthiest brownies you will ever eat with high antioxidant black beans, cocoa, dark chocolate and lupin. Super easy recipe. Sneaky way to get your family to eat more beans!
Keto savoury lupin pancake
My easy lupin pancake with mushrooms and spinach for dinner. Under 200
calories..15g protein, 5g carbs. Perfect on "fasting" day on 5:2 diet.
It is satisfying and nutritious, diabetes friendly and keto friendly. Lupin is a low carb legume shown to be particularly good for people with diabetes and for
weight management.
Keto Cooked cabbage with cheese
Not sure what else to do with cabbage apart from coleslaw? Try cooking it! My super easy and tasty recipe. The dill makes it taste so fresh. I also love dill on steamed/cooked vegies dressed with lemon, a little dijonaise and EV olive oil.
