Baked Chicken Nuggets

by Judianne on in Chicken & Turkey, Fakeaway, Pesach Recipes

Why do Chicken Nuggets always seem to be a success? I think because the chicken is moist and flavoursome and the crispy breadcrumbs just taste so good.

These chicken nuggets are baked not fried so they contain less fat than usual chicken nuggets. The mayonnaise keeps them moist whilst crispening up the breadcrumbs. The paprika, garlic and herbs add flavour and the seseame and flax seeds and boost the health benefits.

I guess that’s why these are always a success!

If you’re making them for passover – just swap the breadcrumbs for Matzo Meal

Za’atar Chicken with Caramelised Onion & Garlic

Zaatar-Chicken-with-Caramelised-Onions-^0-Garlic-Recipe-Card-2Download

We all love Za’atar and my Za’atar plaice with harissa recipe is a flavour we all love but we don’t all love fish so much, so I have adapted it for my meat eaters.

Now everyone is happy (even my vegan who can have a Cauliflower & Chick Pea version) It’s seriously easy and the vegetables just cook away absorbing the chicken flavours.

Video Recipe coming very soon….

If you are looking for Pesach recipes, click on Pesach Recipes and you will find lots. There is also a meal plan for the whole 8 days

PLEASE NOTE – many do contain kitniyot – so if you avoid kitniyot, just avoid those. The occasional recipe…such as the falafel does use flour – wherever you see flour – just substitute for the same quantity of matzo meal. The Banana and Blueberry Cake contains Baking powder – just leave it out.

Vegetarian Bolognese

by Judianne on in Vegan, Vegetarian

This is the text I wrote on my Beef Bolognese recipe….

I laughed out loud in the supermarket last week….. Little boy to mum…”Who doesn’t love bacon?” She replied “Vegans”
So……. Who doesn’t love Spaghetti Bolognaise? 😉

Well….vegans need worry no more, as here is my vegan Bolognese recipe.

This Bolognese is made with veggie mince and tomatoes, carrots, onions and mushrooms, so contains lots of veggies and it freezes brilliantly too.

Vegetable Spring Rolls

by Judianne on in Fakeaway, Vegan, Vegetarian

When you wrap something up in pastry it just tastes so good doesn’t it?

So for these Spring Rolls I have taken lots of delicious crunchy vegetables, added some ginger, garlic, sesame and soy and then wrapped them up in pastry!

If you have an air fryer….spray them with oil and pop them into a preheated air fryer for 10-20 mins at 180. Turn half way and you will LOVE THE RESULTS!

If you don’t have an air fryer, spray or brush them with oil, then bake at 180 degrees for about 35 mins. They won’t be as crispy but will still be delicious. Or you can shallow fry them for about 5 mins – its not the healthiest way to cook them but choose the method that works best for you.

Either way, you’re eating lots of delicious vegetables that are providing you with lots of vitamins

I have listened to your feedback. You want to learn how to make more snacks, chicken dishes and easy meals!  
So, for our next Cook-a-Long, I have planned a delicious variety of dishes that you can eat throughout the day, taste delicious and are healthy, as well as easy to make.
 
 We will be making: –

  1. Granola – can be eaten for breakfast, as a snack, on its own and is delicious with yoghurt and berries.
  2. Roasted Vegetable & Herb Salad with optional feta – Whenever I serve this at dinner parties (remember those???) I always gets lots of compliments. It’s dark, sweet, fresh, creamy, salty, and colourful all in one! It can be a main meal or a side dish
  3. Italian Olive & Herb Chicken – Super quick and simple, the kind of recipe we all need. If you are vegetarian – substitute the chicken for cauliflower florets   
  4. Apple & Honey Muffins – big chunks of sweet apple encased in cake – what more could you want? They freeze brilliantly and every mouthful tastes delicious

Below is some feedback from the last one…..

Hi Judianne, 
I just wanted to say a huge thank you for yesterday’s cook-a-long! I have cooked lots of your recipes previously after following you on Instagram and have always been very impressed. Having never done a cook-along I didn’t know what to expect but your set up & instructions were brilliant and the food all tasted amazing! My 5 year old son loved the kale crisps – something I never thought I would say! 
We will definitely be signing up again! 
Thank you again,
Laura

These chocolate brownies are tart and sweet, made with fibre-rich black beans and a delicious layer of raspberries. They are super easy to make… and can hit the spot when you’re looking for a sweet snack. In total they contain 38g protein and 34.4g fibre, pretty good for a sweet snack.

The black beans contain folic acid which your body needs to make healthy cells.
