Simple Suppers

Long days at work and too many hours spent commuting makes it hard to bypass the fish and chip shop every evening and return to my own kitchen for dinner. Thankfully I do possess the will to be healthy so here are some of my favorite quick-to-make suppers.

Avacado - with anything. Mash it up on rye toast with some roasted vine tomatoes and a poached egg on the side.



The easiest one-stop pot is a mash-up of my favorite Hemsley and Hemsley recipe: 

What you need...
2 cups lentils 
1 litre homemade vegetable stock 
3 big handfuls of spinach 
1 sliced red pepper 
2 cloves of garlic 
2 onions 
2 teaspoons raw coconut oil
Fresh red chilli (depends how spicy you like it) 
Optional - raw king prawns 

What to do with it...
- Sweat the onion. garlic and chilli in the coconut oil. Take care not to brown them. 
- Add the stock and lentils, cover with lid and soup for 6 minutes. 
- Add the sliced pepper and  hand-torn spinach, cook for another 6-10 minutes. At this point you can fire in any other veg you have to hand (courgette, aubergine etc. works well). 
- If you're adding prawns or meat do this now. Leave to cook down until the curry starts to thicken. 
- Serve with raw spinach or on its own. 

DELISH.
