Easy Healthy Meals You'll Actually Look Forward To Eating

We’re all about healthy recipes that are easy to make, packed full of delicious ingredients and don’t compromise on flavour. You know like Coriander Lime Grilled Salmon, Baked Cod and Courgette Salad (that sort of thing). They’re the type of meals that are usually ready in 30 minutes, require minimal prep and use a variety of healthy ingredients that are more than easy to find. In desperate need of easy healthy meal ideas? Check out some of our favourites now.

This sauce is a great jumping off point. Feel free to swap in similar ingredients for countless delicious sauces. Try swapping in shallots for garlic, lemon for lime juice, or brown sugar for honey. The herbs are also adaptable: basil, parsley, and tarragon would all be great swaps for coriander. You could even add a splash of white wine if you're feeling fancy!

This courgette salad is so easy to throw together, and best of all, there's no cooking required! Yep, those courgette ribbons are served raw, tossed with sundried toms and goat's cheese, and a pumpkin seed dressing which although optional is a MUST in our opinion.

This recipe in particular is for those who are after something super simple, a quick to throw together meal - and this bad boy takes just over half an hour to get on the table.

Pesto is great for a quick meal, but the jarred version never quite seems to retain the vibrant green colour and aroma of freshly blitzed, homemade pesto. Traditional pesto usually uses basil, pine nuts and heaps of Parmesan, so we've tried to make our version a little bit healthier, incorporating pumpkin seeds, kale and avocado instead (sorry to the Italians reading this!)

If you're looking for a new Indian dish to perfect at home, you've got to try our chicken tikka recipe. The traditional dish consists of small pieces of marinated chicken, threaded onto skewers and grilled. Unlike a chicken tikka masala, this tikka dish is more like a tandoori - so no sauce!

If you're someone who's afraid of cooking seafood at home, cod is the fish for you. It's basically impossible to mess up: It cooks quickly, is hard to overcook (unless you really forget about it), and is easy to flavour however you want.

White beans are a great blank canvas, especially for bright, assertive flavours like lemon and fresh herbs. Perfect as a side, or as a meal topped with a poached egg, these beans prove from-scratch really does make a difference.

We love this meal because it comes with lots of veggies! If you want to be extra-healthy, serve the salmon over a bed of rocket or spinach.

OK, FINE. Classic Chicken Noodle Soup is already pretty good for you. But we made this even healthier by loading it up with lots of kale, using low-sodium stock, and opting for boneless skinless chicken breast.

The key to acing this dish is to cook the asparagus until its tips are crispy and stalks slightly blistered. The slight char will add a whole other dimension to the enticing flavour of this vegetable.

This super versatile lentil salad is a meal-preppers dream. It's healthy, it's flexible, it keeps for a full week, and it tastes better the longer it sits! Have we convinced you yet?!

Orecchiette, literally translating to "little ears" in Italian, is a crazy underrated and under-utilised pasta in the home kitchen. The tiny little indentations catch so much sauce! Here, the sauce is similar to that of cacio e pepe. You just need butter, pasta water, pepper, and cheese. Toasting the pepper in butter is key, folks. DO NOT skip it.

When it comes to pasta we want something simple and fast. Pasta Pomodoro is a step above from Spaghetti and Meatballs and highlights the freshness of tomatoes — pomodoro means 'tomato' in Italian.

Poached salmon sounds nice and fancy but it's actually one of the easiest ways to cook salmon. It comes out perfect and tender every single time.

This prawn salad is one of our favourite things to throw together. It takes literally 10 minutes to put together but thanks to the zingy dressing and fresh ingredients, it feels like so much love and attention has gone into it.
