These Cumin Roasted Lamb Ribs are going to be a fast favourite in your home.  Since I created this recipe a number of friends have made it a number of times, and I’m not even paying them to do so; they’re just that easy, that delicious and that repeatable.

First of all they don’t take very long lamb ribs can cook a lot quicker than other on-the-bone cuts of meat, secondly there is a lot of flavour fast with this recipe utilising high temp roasting and delicious cumin as the main spice, make these extra tasty.  If you can’t immediately find ribs available to you, definitely ask your butcher, they’re often less expensive than other cuts which is a great bonus.  If you haven’t tried lamb ribs before, this is a recipe to let them shine for minimum technique, expense, and effort – what more do you want from a fast dinner dish?!


My Notes on Lamb Ribs

  • This cut of meat makes for very tasty on-the-bone cooking!
  • Unlike other meats, lamb ribs can cook quite quickly, to a very tasty and pleasing standard!
  • Lamb ribs can work with low and slow, or fast high heat cooking – so versatile. 
  • Lamb ribs can accept a lot of flavour from dry spices, wet marinades, and slow cooking, complimenting a variety of cuisines.
  • One of the best bits – there’s no cutlery required- midweek mojo at its finest with finger food!!!

A green bowl of lunchtime adventure goodness! This green bowl is crunchy and soft, salty and sweet, energizing and calming, monochromatic but a rainbow of nutrients – oh yeah! It’s got everything! This green bowl has just the right amount of complementary ingredients for fabulous satisfaction, satiety and totally worthy of a great big healthy pat on the back after consumption. (Speaking of pats-on-the-back, one of my teachers used to say, “You want a pat on the back? Hang on, let me just go get a cow…” Cheers, sir, feeling so acknowledged right now… come to think of it, that’s probably a big ol’ bowl of green too – we love our grass-fed cows… but let’s not go there…)

 

While this bowl is a great option for all my vegan and vegetarian friends, the awesome fats in the avocado make it filling, enjoyable and sustaining for non-vegos alike – don’t knock it till you’ve tried it my meat-loving-mates. If it’s really ‘not enough’ or as an individual, you’re requiring even more protein and/or energy, you could absolutely add some salmon or chicken to this, which would team up very nicely!

Goat’s Cheese Mousse with Grape

I quite fancy a cheese board! This Goat’s Cheese Mousse with Grape dessert hits just the spot when you’re craving both savoury and sweet!

As always, I love creating modern desserts that have a handful of elements, easy to pair with seasonal produce. For this dessert, the grapes are fabulous both roasted and fresh; their sweetness is complemented by the tangy goat’s cheese or chevre and mellowed by the nutty coffee crumble. But you could just as easily use plums, peaches, pears, berries, figs and more throughout the year. Similarly to the transparent, delicate disc shapes created when cutting grapes, be considerate of the way you prepare your ingredients. Changing the shape or experimenting with how ingredients are cut and prepared, can change the eating experience.  This also allows for a variety of creative plating presentations which can be a lot of fun for you and your guests!

For other easy desserts suitable for sensitive eaters, intolerant tummies check out my Vegan Mousse with Tangelo or my Breakfast for Dessert recipes.

Breakfast for Dessert, or Dessert for Breakfast – You choose!

The best thing about this Breakfast for Dessert Recipe is that you can have each element prepared well in advance. This means that you can have dessert ready in under a minute whenever you feel like. Or perhaps when guests arrive unannounced. It may be after a long dinner, that has moved on to the couch in front of a movie.

The frozen yoghurt can remain in the freezer.  The granola lasts in an airtight container for weeks.  You could easily use frozen berries if fresh berries are unavailable or out of season! The yoghurt and berries have a naturally occurring low sugar content. But because of the other protein and good-fat rich ingredients, this dessert shouldn’t have a disastrous effect on your blood sugars!  

Desserts don’t get much more simple, satisfying, semi-sweet, and most of all minimal-effort, than this Breakfast for Dessert recipe!  I’d love to hear about all your recreations, tag me in your dishes on social media!

Some of you may even all have my Game-Changing Granola sitting in your cupboard, just waiting to be prettied up for this dish!

Right, let’s get into it!

As per usual, gluten free, grain free and refined sugar-free, this dessert may actually be too good, to be true! For other intolerant friendly desserts check out my Valentine’s Day entry.

This Beef Salad celebrates a selection of leftovers, quickly cut up fresh ingredients and some fermented or pickled pops of flavour and goodness. You can easily create this beef salad, just like me, in under a minute, when you’re well prepared!  Who doesn’t love steak and salad? But it can be a little heavy on the portion size at the local pub.  This beef salad is a more appropriate serving size, packed full of flavour and nutrient dense, so you need and feel like less, naturally. Fast food never tasted so good!  In fact, you don’t even have to get into a car, place an order for this one – its faster than that!  The best part is, an hour after eating this one, you don’t crave more or hit a slump – you’re energised to keep going, you’re satiated and feeling fabulous!

A delicious Salmon Salad really does hit the spot.  The good fats in the salmon provide a slow energy release, have a great mouthfeel and really round just about any combination of vegetables together, beautifully.  This may not be the combination of vegetables you most recognise to pair with salmon, so why not give these a go – or any of your favourites for that matter – you’ll get the hang of these adventure lunchtimes in no time!

As a reminder, if you want to connect with your colleagues over a lunch break, make a Salmon Salad together or try out these others.

Lunchtime Adventures Ideas:

  1. Collaborative Cuisine (or a way funkier name for your faculty or department) – each person in your office brings an ingredient and one person per day makes everyone salads utilizing those ingredients.
  2. Family Build-A-Box – steam a little extra, chop a little extra, roast a little extra; buy and prep a little extra of all your separate ingredients for easy lunchbox assembly throughout the week, with enough variety to keep it interesting.
  3. Jar Salads – you’ve seen them before, so just do them! Put your heaviest and wettest ingredients at the bottom so when you turn it onto a plate, it’s already dressed, but not limp or soggy, because eww!
  4. Survival Kit Salads – keep some handy and super convenient, ready-to-go tins and jars of nutrient dense, flavour and texture-rich beans, lentils, nuts, seeds, and dukkah. Some emergency tuna in your desk drawer perhaps, for when those pesky meetings run overtime etc. Don’t skip the meal; just make it a little quicker than usual.
  5. Pot Luck Lunch – everyone brings their best dish to share with everyone else, simple is good, but be brave and try something new and, depending on the number of your staff, you could maybe just rotate a roster!

Bliss Balls seem to be in jars on almost every healthy café’s bench top near the register for last minute thoughts and quick sales – the healthy upsell. But why don’t you make them yourself and tailor them to your desire and dietary requirements? These super-spheres of strength and sustenance are portable, convenient, and significantly satisfying. At this time of year, let’s call them Bliss Baubles and match(a) their colour and flavour to the season’s theme. Let’s try Red Berry Bliss, Matcha Pistachio greenies and some chocolate spiced Christmas Pudding Balls. The method is the same for all of these recipes, so it’s only the ingredients you need to play and experiment with, to get your ultimate snack sorted!
