Fridge salad

This is just stuff that I always have in my fridge – so easy to throw together!

Herb-crusted Chicken Breast

Lovely chicken breasts – I like to serve them with salad.

Scallops

These are a FastDay treat – since I don’t each much on Fastdays I figure I can splash out on something a bit out of the ordinary!

Tiger Prawn Curry

A great tasting curry that doesn’t take up too many Fastday calories!

Salmon with Spinach

My favourite salmon recipe.

Chicken ragout

This wonderful stew is great for cold winter nights. Also goes well with couscous and pasta if you want to add substance for non-fasters!

Mushroom risotto

This lovely risotto tastes great but is very low in calories!

Glazed Pineapple with fromage frais

This is a great way to have an exciting dessert on a fastday without taking up too many calories!

Honeyed Figs

This wonderful, simple and healthy recipe is a great way of ending a Fastday.
