NO-COOK dinners
Eat Well|Issue #40, 2022
Sometimes when dinner approaches, the last thing you feel like doing is cooking. Other times it might just be too hot to contemplate turning on the stove or the oven. On these occasions, having some no-cook recipes on hand can be a lifesaver. The key to no-cook dinners is assembly, putting things together, so all you really need to do is have the ingredients on hand. A little planning when you do your shopping will have you ready to whip up super-simple, no-cook meals such as our: zucchini with walnut pesto and mixed cherry tomatoes; pear and cranberry Brussels sprout salad; prawn tacos; fennel, blood orange and walnut salad; fresh scallop ceviche; tuna tartare tostados; and smoked salmon vermicelli salad.

PLANT-BASED PIES

PLANT-BASED PIES

Pies are a piece of gastronomic brilliance: a filling with a case and lid you can eat is food genius. The first pies date back to Egyptian times and there is a recipe for chicken pie that was carved into stone more than 4000 years ago. For millennia, however, the pie casing was mostly used to cook the filling, but for around 500 years or more we have been eating the pie crust too.
