A great one for the midweek rush, these easy rice bowls by Dorina at Thyme 4 Cooking are quick and easy to make, yet full of delightful flavours. The lion’s share of the prep time is with the meatballs but you can get ahead by making them up in advance and storing them in the fridge or freezer.

The chicken meatballs are fried in our Mellow Yellow Cold Pressed Rapeseed Oil to get the perfect colour, then served with a vibrant side salad drizzled in our Classic Vinaigrette. Simple and delicious!

Aromatic, fresh and punchy, this tasty salmon dish by James at Beefy Boys is great for those days when you’re craving big, bold flavours.

Served with Tilda Garlic & Herb rice, it’s a healthy and delicious meal you’ll want to repeat more than once.

Boasting bold flavours and satisfying textures, this delightful sprout salad by Sorrels Kitchen makes a wonderful side dish for entertaining over the festive period. Sweet raisins and crispy chorizo clash perfectly with the shaved sprouts and ciabatta croutons, whilst our Mellow Yellow Balsamic Vinegar Dressing brings it all together with an extra layer of flavour.

Perfectly at home as a side, it’s also makes a delicious lunch, main or breakfast – paired with your choice of protein or topped with a crispy fried egg. We recommend enjoying this right up until the end of March when sprouts season comes to an end. It’s simply too good to be confined to the Christmas menu!

We love food that makes seasonal ingredients the star of the show, like this 5 minute fig salad! Proving that you don’t need to slave over a hot stove to get a great meal on the table, it’s fresh, healthy, delicious and bursting with the flavours of summer.

Good quality ingredients make all the difference here. We suggest opting for the freshest figs you can find and pairing them with crisp green leaves and a really good mozzarella. A hearty drizzle of our Mellow Yellow Classic Vinaigrette to finish off brings everything together – enhancing those fabulous figs and adding a wonderful kick of background flavour.

This Courgette and Mascarpone Pesto Tart is simply delicious! Made with a mix of spelt and almond flour, this nutty tart pairs beautifully with the creamy mascarpone pesto filling and is topped with pretty ribboned courgettes for a show-stopping result.

The pastry is blind-baked first to retain a buttery, flaky texture and elevate the taste. But if you’re pushed for time, you can make, fill and bake in one go – just don’t skip the fridge rest time as this will help it hold its shape during baking.
