    One Pot Pork Chop with Carrots, Mash & Gravy

    This one pot pork chop meal comes together with minimal hands on preparation and rewards you with a full plate of silky mash, tender carrots, rich gravy and melt-in-your-mouth spiced pork. Thick cut pork chops work best here, ideally around 3/4 to 1 inch thick. Our local butcher sells these for a similar price per kg to the main supermarkets in our area.

    Creamy Mushroom & Beef Stroganoff

    A few years back I stumbled upon this traditional russian variation by Julia Frey of Vikalinka. It’s simple, creamy and yet still light. Boosted with the rich flavours of mustard and marsala – it’s absolutely delicious. I’ve adjusted the recipe to make it a little more macro friendly. I’ve also included the serving of rice in our nutritional information panel.
