How We came up with this recipe

We’re all total converts to a quick homemade pizza recipe because they’re still super convenient and delicious but they’re also fresh tasting and don’t contain loads of preservatives.

I created this recipe with simplicity in mind, so we tested this with passata, garlic and oregano as the pizza sauce, spread over naan breads with a cheesy topping, plus the extra toppings of your choice (my favourite is pepperoni and red onion).

We knew we were onto a winner when we discovered the prep took about 2 minutes and then they cooked perfectly in the oven in 10 minutes, with that same oozing, golden, cheesy topping that we all love so much in pizza.

If you have the energy you can make a side salad for lunch or add some homemade chips for dinner.

But when time is short and tummies are rumbling, these pizzas are always an easy win.

Naan Bread Pizza Ingredients Notes

• Naan breads – These come in all shapes and sizes in the supermarket. Just buy what best suits you as this recipe works with them all. You could even try garlic or flavoured ones for a little variety
• For the pizza sauce – You will just need passata, garlic powder and oregano. Low cost and healthy!
• Mozzarella – If you buy ready-grated you will save yourself loads of time
• Toppings – I use red onion and pepperoni but it’s your choice!

These Halloumi Fajitas are so quick, tasty and colourful! What’s more, this delicious vegetarian family recipe provides a satisfying dinner on the table in about 15 minutes.

I’m not sure I can find a meal that can’t be improved with the addition of squeaky cheese. Who’s with me?!

For these Halloumi Fajitas, we take our favourite Greek/Cypriot cheese and add some spice, veggies and the usual sides.

It really is super simple.

Halloumi Fajitas Ingredients Notes

• Halloumi – You’ll need 2 packs for 4 people. You can slice up a block or buy it pre-sliced. If you’d prefer it to be softer rather than squeaky, try soaking it in boiling water for 10 mins before frying!
• Onions – I have left these as optional as I know lots of children take offence at them! I do tend to include them if I can as they add flavour and extra vegetables
• Bell peppers – Use whichever colours you prefer. I like a mix of red and yellow. Just deseed and slice into thin strips
• Cajun spice mix – Use whichever brand you have/like. Be sure that the pack hasn’t been hanging around for years as it does lose its flavour! You can use a Mexican/taco/fajita spice mix if you prefer
• Tortilla wraps – I like to toast these under the grill or directly on the gas hob before serving to give them a little texture and colour. This is optional though
• To serve: It’s up to you but I like to add sour cream or Greek yoghurt, lime wedges and my own salsa (tomatoes, red onion, lime juice, mint). Alternatively you could use a shop bought one

How to make Halloumi Fajitas

1. Chop the veggies up and heat in hot oil in a pan along with half of the spice mix. When starting to blacken at the edges, set aside.

2. Slice up the halloumi, lay into a hot pan, sprinkle the remaining spice mix and cook until brown on both side.

3. Add everything into the pan together to heat though and drizzle the honey over.

4. Serve on a platter with wraps, yoghurt, lime wedges and avocado (plus salsa if using).

Chicken Quesadillas Ingredients

• Cooked chicken – Leftover, shop-bought or cook your own
• Black beans – Drained and rinsed
• Sweetcorn – Tinned
• Red onion
• Fajita seasoning – From a jar rather than packet
• Sunflower oil – Or olive oil
• Large flour tortillas
• Grated mozzarella

How to make Chicken Quesadillas in a pan

1. Mix the chicken, beans, sweetcorn, onion and fajita seasoning in a bowl together.

2. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat, and place a wrap in.

3. Sprinkle over some of the cheese.

4. Next, sprinkle over a quarter of the filling evenly.

3. Sprinkle more cheese (approx 25g) on top of that.

4. Using a second clean pan, weigh down the quesadilla and cook for about 3 minutes on each side.

Hint: You will have to work relatively quickly making the quesadilla up to make sure it doesn’t burn underneath | Repeat the process for the other quesadillas and keep them warm on a plate covered with foil, or in the oven on a very low heat.

• Halloumi – You’ll need 2 packs for 4 people. You can slice up a block or buy it pre-sliced. If you’d prefer it to be softer rather than squeaky, try soaking it in boiling water for 10 mins before frying!

For the homemade sticky sauce:

• Honey, sweet chilli sauce and ketchup – These regular store cupboard ingredients are a dream team for flavour and consistency

To serve:

• You can use whatever fillings you fancy. I like to add the halloumi, little gem lettuces, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, hummus and lime into small tortilla wraps

How to make Halloumi wraps

1. Mix your sticky sauce ingredients in a small bowl until combined.

2. Add the halloumi slices to hot oil in the pan and fry as per the recipe below. When brown, add the sauce and coat the halloumi, continue to cook according to recipe below.

Now: Heat your wraps in the microwave, or wrapped in some foil in a low oven (or have them cold).

Spread each wrap with hummus, add lettuce, tomatoes and onion and top with pieces of halloumi – give each wrap a squeeze of lime to finish. Wrap up and enjoy!

Substitutions

• Paneer – You can use paneer instead of halloumi if you prefer
• Salad – You can swap the salad filling for whatever you fancy
• Wraps – You could go for wholemeal wraps for additional fibre or gluten-free if you want to make this a GF meal
