I made this delicious pea and feta dip for breakfast last week and loved it so much that I decided to make it again for lunch today.
I was inspired by Shred Happens, and it's such an easy way to add extra protein to a meal.
I added 1½ cups of thawed peas to the food processor with:
• 16 oz cottage cheese
• 3 oz feta
• ½ cup fresh mint
• Zest of 1 lemon
• Juice of ½ lemon
• 1 small garlic clove
• A pinch of salt and pepper
• 1 tsp olive oil
Blend everything until smooth and creamy. I topped mine with some microgreens.
Remember, eating healthily doesn't have to be complicated. If you fancy making a recipe but don't have all the ingredients, don't be afraid to substitute something you do have. I do it all the time. Some of my best meals come from simply using what's already in the fridge.
I can't take any credit for the delicious bread. My son-in-law has perfected the art of making gluten-free bread, which isn't easy, and I'm always happy to be one of his taste testers.
What's your favourite quick and easy lunch?
