healthy_eatingWe love recipes that only use one pan. They save time on washing up and often mean you can set them and forget about them while they cook away.
This recipe uses lots of healthy spices, fresh veggies and tinned staples to create a simple meal for the whole family.
When it comes time to serve, there’s no need to go for the same old side dish.
