3 nights in a row. 2. baked meatballs We had these for dinner recently and I'd forgotten how much I love them! 3. salt-crusted burgers with mashy peas Everyone loves a burger but instead going down the old takeaway path of serving them on a bun, try a more colourful dinner time option of mashed peas. vegetarian / vegan -- replace the beef with lentils that have been simmered in water until tender (anywhere from 15-30 minutes) and drained. Drizzle in a little extra virgin olive oil to make up for the lentils being low in fat. budget -- skip the pine nuts or use toasted bread crumbs instead. You might like to add in some lentils as well to make the beef go further. ome made hummus -- just whizz together a can of chickpeas with 1-2 cloves garlic and 3 tablespoons each lemon juice, tahini and the canning liquid. Hi Jules, thanks for a great new mince idea (can't get enough of those!). I too love the beef and broc recipe, also the beef and zucc, and the chicken and basil. They are healthy, tasty and practically instant. And hardly any washing up. They would be my regular weekly go tos, however my husband serves his with rice and prefers lots of sauce to go with the rice. He says the texture of the dishes is a bit dry for him (the old food texture thing). Any ideas what to add at the end to make them still
