Pure comfort. This is a no recipe chickpea, tomato Pure comfort. This is a no recipe chickpea, tomato, roasted aubergine and cheesy bake that we had for lunch. Served with a big, lemony green salad for those of us who eat salad (can’t get Willow to touch lettuce or herbs 😳). I know you’ll ask me for the recipe but it’s not something I have tested and typed up. It’s basically chickpeas in a garlicky, tomato sauce and roasted aubergines, slow cooked so the flavours all deepen, then baked with cheese. Not too dissimilar from an aubergine parmigiana but with chickpeas. I’ll work on getting a more thorough recipe to you soon as it was SO good and so comforting, I’ll definitely be making it again. For now there are similar recipes saved on my @pinterest board so take a mooch around and see if you find anything you like there as there are heaps of gorgeous recipes saved on my winter board that I often make or adapt or take inspiration from when I can’t think what to make or want to lose yourself in a little visual foodie heaven for a while. I hope you are all doing as ok as can be ❤️ . . . . . . . . . . #ameliafreer #makinghealthysimple #simplefood #healthyfood #comfortfood #aubergineandchickpeabake #christmas2020 #eeets #yummy #simplygoodforyou #heresmyfood #onmytable #tasty #delicious #goodfood #homemade #recipe #foodphotography #eatbetterfeelbetter #healthyfoodchoices

The Christmas season can mean a lot of heavy meals The Christmas season can mean a lot of heavy meals. Delicious and joyful as these certainly are, I think we all have days or occasions when we might feel like something festive but a bit lighter. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ This colourful Warm Festive Salad with an Orange Vinaigrette is for exactly those kind of days. It's a really adaptable recipe, so you can edit and swap most of the ingredients according to whatever you have available or that needs using up in the fridge (so perfect for those quieter days leading into the New Year). It also tastes great topped with some strips of torn leftover turkey. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Link to the full recipe is in my bio. x⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⁠⠀ Photo credit: @thisisjenrich⁠⠀ #christmasrecipes #ameliafreer #healthychristmas #christmas #christmasfood #healthychristmasrecipes #christmascooking #festivefood #healthyfood #healthyeating #recipes #feedfeed #christmasdinner #food #holidayrecipes #recipe #christmastime #merrychristmas #foodphotgraphy #instafood #foodie #cooking⁠⠀ ⁠⠀
A HUMBLE REQUEST...Happy Friday! I hope your week A HUMBLE REQUEST...Happy Friday! I hope your week has been ok. I know this is not a usual Friday evening post but I’m a little behind this week.. however, I’m sure you will understand.⠀ ⠀ My 4th book came out this year, yet it feels like such a long time ago. Due to a combination of COVID and the mystical ways that social media algorithms work, a few of you still don't have a copy of Simply Good For You. So I hope you don't mind me reminding you about it, as a little hint for a last-minute gift idea (for yourself as much as anyone else!). Simply Good For You is packed with genuinely quick & easy - but also nutritious and tasty - recipes for all. It's a book for the everyday, not the one-off occasions, as it's what we do consistently, day-in, day-out that matters most when it comes to our health and nutrition. Those weekday breakfasts, WFH lunches, and speedy suppers - the moments that mark time in our busy lives. It's also what my family and I genuinely eat at home. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ My books, and your incredible support of them, is the foundation upon which all of my other work, content, free recipes and articles has been built. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ It is what enables me to work alongside my little team (there's 3 of us here behind-the-scenes), and allows us all to continue doing what we love: Sharing compassionate, evidence-based and practical information and ideas on ways to live a joyfully healthy life. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ I am, and will continue to be, inordinately grateful for your support of my books. The book is discounted on Amazon and Waterstones has signed copies available. Link in bio x⠀ ⁠⠀ And the most enormous and heartfelt thank you to everyone who already has a copy of Simply Good For You (or any of my other books) and to those of you who've super kindly got one for a friend. ⁠Please share below which your favourite recipes are, I’d love to know as I have a little mini celebration for this book that I know has, in a small way, supported many of you through this challenging year 🍾 ❤️⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⁠⠀ #ameliafreer #simplygoodforyou #giftidea #book #nutrition #healthyfood #quickhealthyfood #healthy #healthyeating #health #foodie #easyrecipe #plantbased #realfood
FESTIVE RECIPES: If there is one part of the festi FESTIVE RECIPES: If there is one part of the festive feast that can be more worrisome than any other, it's the Roast Turkey. I sometimes skip this part altogether and just do two big roast chickens instead (it's cheaper, easier and takes less time), but I know that's not traditional! So if you are going to tackle a turkey this year, here is my favourite recipe (link in bio). ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ My top timing tip, especially if you don’t have masses of oven space, is to aim to have your turkey coming out of the oven to rest at least 1-1.5 hours before you eat. This might sound a long time, but the bird will stay warm if you wrap it in foil with a couple of tea-towels over the top. This then frees up your oven to roast the veggies at a higher temperature than the bird needed to cook at. So long as you ensure the gravy, plates and other parts of the meal are hot, nobody will notice in the slightest that the turkey is merely warm. Promise! ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ My second tip is to use a meat thermometer. It is absolutely worth buying one of these as it makes turkey cooking much simpler (and you are also less likely to overcook your expensive bird). The reassurance that comes from knowing that the bird is well cooked through means we can be more responsive to what’s actually in front of us, rather than what’s been written on a page. You'll find a link to one I suggest at the bottom of the recipe. x⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ Photo credit: @thisisjenrich ⁠⠀ #christmasrecipes #ameliafreer #healthychristmas #christmas #christmasfood #healthychristmasrecipes #christmascooking #festivefood #healthyfood #healthyeating #recipes #feedfeed #christmasdinner #food #holidayrecipes #recipe #christmastime #merrychristmas #foodphotgraphy #instafood #foodie #cooking #turkey⁠⠀ ⁠⠀
I thought I’d share these beautiful flowers with I thought I’d share these beautiful flowers with you as they are certainly bring me joy at the moment. This week does seem to be overwhelming and frazzled for so many as we try to wrap up work and everything else on top for the year. I am desperate to have a proper, much needed break over the next couple of weeks. But inevitably there is still an endless to do list. I had to have a chat with myself today about letting go and accepting that not everything can get done and that I really do need to take a break from work rather than continuing to meet everyone’s needs. And remind myself of what is actually important because it can be so easy to neglect the things that really matter while drowning in “busyness”. So, I thought I’d share this today as another little self-care tip that I am giving to myself as much as to you all. Its a really simple one but I think many of you might appreciate it. It's a reminder that Christmas, however important it might feel this year, really doesn't have to be perfect to be wonderful. Make sure you give yourself permission for things to be Good Enough, and to take a break so you don't end up exhausted by it all. Allow yourself to accept help from others, and to 'break the rules' a little bit! A bit of cheery imperfection is often very charming. As we crawl to the finish line of this year, I am going to let go and most importantly, look forward to enjoying quality time with those that I CAN be with this year❤️xx . . . . . . . . . #ameliafreer #selfcare #flowers #andbreathe #makinghealthysimple #letgo #notaperfectchristmas #christmas2020
