Whipped Feta, Ricotta and Courgette Tart with Balsamic Roasted Tomatoes and a Basil Parmesan Dressing

This was such a lovely and light dinner which would be ideal for a picnic or even as a starter for a dinner party if you made individual tarts. The combination of flavours were so fresh and tasty. It’s meals like this that make you don’t miss meat - the crispy puff pastry, salty and creamy whipped feta, the roasted tomatoes bursting with sweetness, and the sharp, herby dressing all work together so well. A satisfying vegetarian meal which won’t disappoint.

Meat-free, healthy, delicious, and full of some of my favourite Greek flavours, this halloumi dish is a knockout. I love halloumi and by marinading it in a mixture of za’atar, garlic, lemon and finishing it in the pan with a drizzle of honey, you will not be able to resist it.

Dukkah Roasted Butternut Squash with Brussel Sprouts, Dates, Labneh, Zhoug and Pecans

This dish would make a great side dish but it also made a lovely light dinner for us. Meat free and vegetarian, it’s full of flavour and texture. The roasted squash and sprouts crusted with dukkah, coriander, cumin seeds and nigella seeds is delicious. Teamed with creamy labneh yoghurt which is so easy to make, zingy green zhoug dressing, crunchy toasted walnuts and sweet juicy dates, this would be a great addition to any feast and a different way to have sprouts on Christmas Day.

Chargrilled Sweetheart Cabbage with Harissa Butter, Preserved Lemon and Parsley Yoghurt, Pickled Red Onions, Toasted Hazelnuts and Raisins

I love the smokiness of the charred cabbage with the heat of the harissa butter, cooling sharpness of the lemon yoghurt, and all the textures from the toasted nuts, pickled onions and sweetness from the raisins. This is a filling, flavour packed veggie dish which works great on its own or as a side dish and can easily be made vegan.
