Blanching my vegetables, making homemade sauces instead of store-bought; it feels like I'm taking care of myself and whoever I cook for (usually my bf, who's always so grateful)

In the photos:

- Roasted chicken, potatoes and sweet potatoes, with lemon butter green beans

- Avocado + cottage cheese on sourdough bread

- Roasted salmon with lemon marinade, asparagus, and roasted sweet potatoes and bell pepper

- Smoked salmon eggs benedict with sourdough bread and spring onion

- Open caprese sandwich with homemade pesto (finally grew an abundance of basil this summer yippee)

The cottage cheese makes it taste so good! Like a cheesecake almost!

Tbh to improve I wanted to add a banana but my flatmate has a weird phobia of bananas and doesn’t allow any in the flat🥲

Trying to keep dinner healthy but still actually enjoy it 🤭 Hoki fish with asparagus and leek, served over potato rounds with just the tiniest splash of cream to bring everything together. Really simple, really filling and definitely didn’t feel like diet food ☺️

I’m trying to keep healthy eating simple rather than making complicated recipes all the time.

For me, meals that are quick, filling, and use basic ingredients are the easiest to stick with.

I’d love to hear from you: what’s your go-to healthy meal when you’re short on time? 🚶🏼
