Easy & Healthy Recipes
Staying in self-catering for your trip means you have the flexibility to cook the things you like and avoid the ingredients your fussy eater won’t touch! We have a few recipes on file that tick all the boxes of quick, easy, and healthy.
1. Taco Zucchini Boats
Easy, nutritionally balanced, and more fun to put on the plate! These zucchini (courgette) boats are fully adaptable to cater to any diet and the kids will even forget they’re eating their vegetables when it’s in the form of a boat!
2. Mid-West Five Cheese Bake
Ok, we know, cheese isn’t exactly considered the healthiest addition to any diet. However, it can be good for the soul. If you’ve had a rough day, got caught in the rain, or you’re just feeling like some comfort food, this five cheese bake will tick all the boxes.
3. Vegan Crunch Wrap
Plant-based diets are becoming more and more popular, so it’s great that so many recipes have been adapted to suit a vegan diet. This vegan crunch wrap ticks all the boxes and could even convince the biggest steak lover out there!
4. Sheet-pan Harissa Chicken with Chickpeas and Sweet Potatoes
Sometimes you don’t want to wash loads of dishes, and that’s ok! But if you need to whip up dinner for the family then you have to use a few dishes right? Wrong! This one-pan Harissa chicken recipe is nutritionally balanced and easy to clean up!
5. Pasta with Spicy Butternut Squash Sauce
If you need to get more vegetables in your diet then using butternut squash is the perfect way to disguise the food group in your meal. This recipe is a fantastic alternative to a white/cheese sauce without sacrificing the flavour.
6. Chicken Parmesan
Chicken Parmesan is a classic dish. Healthy doesn’t always have to be chicken breast with a side salad, it can also be having that one cheesy meal that you love.
7. Simple Cauliflower
It’s a fact (we think) that broccoli will always be the top dog when it comes to small tree looking vegetables, but cauliflower is not to be surpassed! This simple cauliflower recipe is perfect to whip up mid-week and might even change your mind about the beige vegetable!
8. Breakfast Burritos
We can advocate for this recipe because we have tried it! It’s the perfect way to bring your love for the Mexican delight to another meal. You can adapt this one however you like.
9. Rice Cooker Mac n’ Cheese
It’s another cheese dish but you can’t go wrong with macaroni cheese, especially not when it’s as easy to put together as this one. This is the ultimate comfort dish for any time of year!
10. Butternut Squash, Chickpea, and Lentil Moroccan Stew
If you’re looking for something with a pop of colour then this Moroccan stew is perfect. This dish is ideal for vegetarians, vegans and meat eaters alike! Nutritionally sound and packed with flavour!
