Thai Mango Salad

I honestly did not set out to make mango salad but my online grocer sent me 2 unripe mangoes and I didn’t realise that before putting them into the fridge. As such, they never got the chance to ripen and when life gives you unripened mangoes, you make mango salad! Ingredients:  1 unripe mango 1...

Warm Salad with Prawns

I think this is one of the healthiest meals I’ve had throughout this whole circuit breaker period. It was also my excuse to use up what’s left of my Hollandaise sauce. You can choose various types of vegetables but these were the ones that I bought and am finishing up. Ingredients: 1 asparagus stalk, sliced...

Another Meatless Salad

Yes, I’ve done it this time! NO meat in this salad and vegans can substitute the egg with something else. I pigged out on pizzas yesterday so for lunch today, I decided to be a good girl and eat something that is full of fibre and healthy. Following my ‘Almost Vegan Salad‘, I used spinach...

Almost Vegan Salad

I call this my Almost Vegan Salad because it is almost all non-animal except that I had to add in mussels, which vegans can opt not to have. Haha…this is a very simple salad that is rich in iron, omega 3 and fibre. Very suitable for those who are on a low gluten, low carb...
