These Smashed Chickpea Quesadillas are a definite taste explosion in your mouth, and are absolutely fantastic. The quesadillas are super easy to make, quick and surprisingly filling. These smashed chickpea quesadillas are vegetarian and the flavours are incredible - so much flavour in each mouthful. They're zingy from the added lime juice, a little spicy from the hot sauce, sweet from the red bell pepper, and extra cheesey from the cheddar and cream cheese. Like we said, an

Stews in our opinion are one of the most comforting, and satisfying meals there is. Simple, humble ingredients that are truly delicious. Stews are a fantastic way to use up ingredients in your veg or meat drawer, and are easily adaptable to suit your taste buds, mood, season or diet. Stews of course, are delicious by themselves. However, with the added treat of homemade dumplings, it becomes, AMAZING! We LOVE, LOVE, LOVE dumplings, and they're are never enough. Everyone alway

This Lentil soup is hearty, loaded with flavour, and 100% DELICIOUS! Sometimes, the simplest of ingredients make the most incredible recipes. Most soups are light, and honestly not that filling. However, this is definitely a filling soup. The lentils really bulk it out, leaving your tummy satisfied. Plus, if served with some freshly sliced bread to dip in you are going to feel full - would highly recommend. Perfectly delicious served by itself. However, the added sprinkle o

Sloppy Joe's is a fantastic one-pot family dinner. It's quick, easy to assemble and above all it tastes fantastic! This is fantastic any day of the week and it's a great dinner that the kids can assemble themselves and add their own toppings. We love to add some grated cheese, sliced cucumber and jalapeños. You can add what you fancy or keep it simple with just the meaty sauce. Either way it will taste delicious! We like to serve ours in soft baps, but you could use crusty r

We made this this week for a family dinner and it was a huge success - they LOVED it! This is a great vegetarian main meal or makes for a delicious side dish.

If you've not yet tried these delicious pizza stuffed pancakes, then you've been missing out. The pancakes are infused with fragrant Italian herbs and inside filled with loads of ham, cheese and ketchup.

Originating from the UK and Ireland, cottage pie is a delicious savoury meal, minced beef and various vegetables topped with mashed potato, then baked. The alternative is shepherd's pie, which is the exact same but instead of beef you use lamb or mutton, so choose whichever you'd prefer. We love to grate cheese over ours so that it all melts and adds an extra layer on top. Anyway without further ado, let's get on with this delicious recipe! Happy Cooking! The Chai Home 😋 ING

Ragù is a delicious meat-based sauce, commonly served with pasta. However, due to the rising popularity of vegetarianism and veganism, ragù is off the menu for many. That's why we opted to make a vegan version instead, using lentils, as they have a meaty texture. It's full of flavour and so easy to make and you can use whichever type of pasta you would like, but we chose spaghetti. This is sure to be a dinner time favorite, so let's get on with the recipe! Happy Cooking! The

If you are looking for a meal to give your taste buds a FIESTA! this is the recipe for you. It's jammed packed full of fresh flavours, fresh veggies and goodness. This recipe has a little kick of spice, but if you like to turn the spice level up a notch or two, then you can go ahead and add more chilli paste or add a fresh sliced chilli.
