Bored of eating the same old meals? Eating seasonally can bring you not only variety but lots of flavour pleasure that we all deserve to enjoy at home. This week the almighty aubergine 🍆 is my ingredient of the week and if you have followed me for a while you know that it’s up there as one of my all time fave ingredients. An ingredient that is particularly enjoyed in southern summer Italian cooking. 🍆 Aubergine Parmigiana 🍆Pasta Alla Norma (tomato and aubergine) Are two of my fave 🍆 dishes and those have been shared with my Saucy Society membership for some delicious inspo this week. What’s your fave aubergine dish of all time? #aubergine #seasonalcooking #eatbetterfeelbetter

Have you ever cooked with CRAB? I’m excited that this week I have partnered up with @garofalopastauk and created a super easy, super sexy pasta recipe using this fabulous seasonal ingredient. CRAB SPINACH + LEMON CRUMB SPAGHETTI. Crab is one of those ingredients that can feel a little overwhelming to cook with as it can feel quite BOUJEE but the reality is, most large supermarkets stock crab meat in their fresh fish section. Plus you don’t have to do any of the time consuming prep as it’s already cooked and dressed. Therefore all you have to do is decide what you want to enjoy it with. EASY RIGHT??! If you would like to cook with crab, why not try my new recipe along with @garofalopastauk SPAGHETTI ALLA CHITARRA which will be revealed on Thursday. You will need a handful of ingredients: 🦀 200g crab meat 🧄 4 garlic cloves 🌶 1 fresh red chilli 🍃 125g baby spinach 🍞 2 tbsp panko breadcrumbs 🍋 1 lemon 🍝 250g spaghetti alla chitarra @garofalopastauk (order from @ocadouk or @amazonuk) 🍶Olive oil 🧂Sea salt 🧂Black pepper. Let me know if this has inspired them to cook with crab. And remember’cook food that makes you feel good’💃🏻 #crabmeat #pastarecipe #easycooking
