“This massaged kale and creamy egg salad may seem a little simple and underwhelming as you read through it, but I promise you, the flavours and textures are amazing! The creamy egg mix was inspired by traditional ‘devilled eggs’ and I just love my addition of sweet tomatoes, garlic and parsley. I serve it over raw, massaged curly kale (when, if done right – is INCREDIBLE!). This salad is beautiful: we had it as a side dish at our braai (BBQ) recently, but you could equally enjoy it as a ‘take-to-work-desk-lunch’. Please try it! ” – Monya

“This artichoke and creamy burrata salad is a quick, easy and truly delicious salad using char-grilled artichokes. These can be found in the shelves in stores where all the chilled antipasti goodies are kept. They are smoky and lovely in a salad. This salad serves 4 as a side dish, but could easily be enjoyed by two people as a meat-free main meal. I especially love the simple garlic dressing, but be sure to use crushed garlic (done using a garlic press) for the best flavour and texture. The scattering of chopped parsley will balance it all out nicely. ” – Monya

“I had a jar of char-grilled re peppers (capsicum) in the fridge and used them in this avocado lemon and roasted red pepper salad. This simple salad features zingy lemon zest and juice, which steals the show! It will make a lovely side salad option to your protein (chicken, meat or fish). Alternatively, you could add boiled eggs, leftover grilled chicken pieces or even fresh mozzarella to create a more substantial main meal or a keto lunch idea.” – Monya

“This is a quick post to remind you how delicious smoked mackerel is! Mackerel is packed with essential Omega-3: fats that are highly recommended to include in your diet. Consider making my easy smoked mackerel paté if you have any smoked mackerel left over.” – Monya
