Author Notes
With a big passion for cooking, and talking all things foodie related, even I have those days where ‘cooking’ really isn’t on the table. I know, I know, you weren’t expecting it, but i do… and often! Before the health bug bit me, this would be the perfect excuse i needed to grab a takeaway, indulge in dessert for dinner, or even just have a cup of tea and go to bed! Needless to say I never felt great the morning after! Now when I get home from a busy days work, I not only know exactly what easy meals I can make but I set a 10 minute stopwatch, so i know that whatever I’m about to make can take no longer than that. Quick, speedy, stress free and over in 600 seconds. Simple! One of my favourite go to speedy meals at the moment is a simple tartine with rice bread, homemade hummus, and an olive, tomato, lemon and basil salsa. Literally takes no time to make and tastes absolutely delicious! The balance of Low GI sustaining carbohydrates from the bread with the protein rich hummus, and tantalising veggie packed salsa, makes for a brilliantly nourishing and filling meal. —Saskia Gregson-Williams
