Almond & Lemon Zest Green Beans
Crisp-tender green beans tossed with toasted almonds, garlic and lemon zest for a quick, bright side dish.
Simple Cauliflower Cheese
Simple Cauliflower Cheese is classic comfort food at its best: tender cauliflower florets wrapped in a smooth, creamy cheddar sauce and baked until bubbling. The sauce is rich without being heavy, with a mellow savoury depth that lets the cauliflower shine.
It works beautifully as a hearty vegetarian main or as a side dish with roast meats and greens. The golden top and creamy centre make it especially satisfying on colder days. Serve straight from the oven with crusty bread or alongside a roast for a dependable crowd-pleaser.
