Marinading, frying, then baking the chicken breasts keeps them lovely and juicy and moist and works every time. You can add whatever veggies you like to the salad but for me, some roasted sweet potato in a few spices, roughly chopped spinach leaves and extra coriander work a treat.

This pesto recipe is a great one for nut-allergies as it uses sunflower seeds instead of pine nuts. The texture and flavour is just the same as other pesto recipes (some might say actually more tasty) and its so versatile. You can add it on pizzas, stir it through risottos, or use it as a topping for hummus. The possibilities are endless.

Inspired by a recent brunch at Urban Angel on Hanover Street in Edinburgh, this recipe has become a slight obsession. Perfect for brunch, lunch or a light dinner, it is a healthy dish full of texture and some of my favourite flavours. It’s also super easy to pull together last minute and chances are you will have most of the ingredients in your cupboard already.
