Chicken Liver Pâté
Here’s a super simple chicken liver pâté recipe that can be made in 10 minutes and will last a week in the fridge. Organ meats really are the crême de la crême of nutritious foods and a good place to start, if you are new to the organ-meat-game, is with chicken liver. In comparison to chicken breast/muscle meat, chicken liver is significantly more nutrient-dense and beneficial for our health. The flavour is perfect for a creamy homemade pâté which makes a great nutrient-dense protein source for a lunch plate.
Blueberry Chia Compote (or Jam)
This quick and easy sugar-free compote is my favourite thing to have with yoghurt as a healthy dessert. By adding the chia seeds you get some additional nutrients, fibre and the gelatinous texture of a jam if you allow the compote to cool. I recommend keeping the cooking temperature low to aim to preserve some of the antioxidant-rich phytonutrients in the fruit.
Carrot-top Pesto
Here’s a recipe for you in the name of reducing food waste: Carrot-top pesto! I make this every time I buy carrots from the farmers' market. Carrot tops are so green and nutritious, you can't possibly waste them. Also, making sauces from scratch leads to particularly fresh, delicious meals, and this one gives you a great excuse to eat pasta! Root-to-stem cooking is the way forward.
Butter Bean Hummus
I love hummus! I’m also very much in favour of making my own dips and sauces and encourage you all to do so too. If you have a blender or food processor, this butter bean hummus is really quick and easy, you end up with a huge amount, and you are fully in control of the ingredients!
