Grow your own
LONDON - I’ve mentioned before that I eat a lot of ready meals. I’ve decided to try and eat more home made meals and in my quest to be more healthy, I’ve purchased some herbs. I reckon if you want to start cooking with fresh herbs, you should start with basil (always a winner), rosemary (great for chicken) and coriander (great for pico de gallo).
So as I’m sure you know, roasts are popular on Sundays in England and I do love a roast lamb on any day of the week. But what about roast vegetables?
I threw some carrots, tomatoes, red onions and sweet potatoes into a casserole dish, covered it in olive oil, salt and torn rosemary. Baked it in the oven at 180 C for an hour and the end result was, well, tasty and healthy.
Got any ideas for healthy meals?
i’ve been meaning to get a waitrose basil plant! i get the individual packages but i never get to use all the basil before it goes bad…
Try use basil for salads too or in a red sauce.
And it looks so beautiful, too
Thanks Alison
