Deciding what to make for tea is just never-ending.

27/06/19

You can triumph one day, with a table of smiling places, only to crash and burn the next day. Similarly, if you have to delight your own tastebuds day after day, you might find yourself sticking to tried and tested favourites, which deliver in terms of getting a plate of food on the table but it doesn’t do much for the sense of lip-smacking satisfaction that lets you know that you’ve really enjoyed your food.

After all, when you’re watching what you eat, every mouthful counts…

At JD Seasonings, we’ve worked hard to bring together the best of blends, rubs and meal kits to make the most of every meal, but we’ve also gone one step further and developed recipes that will deliver deliciousness every time. So whether you’re looking for new ways to do family favourites or if you’re just starting to spread your culinary wings, we’ve got your back!

Pimp your pasta

Pasta offers a firm backbone to a meal but it will tip the balance calorie-wise. The smart approach to making more of your Italian favourites lies within the sauce. Creamy carbonara is out but our Spaghetti Amatriciana recipe sets out clearly how you can combine our Amatriciana meal kit with bacon and tomatoes for a balanced meal.

Spaghetti Bolognese is the perfect go-to mid-week meal but it can become a bit same-y. A change in recipe can transform your standard Bolognese into something special without.

Get a bigger bang from your bangers

Sausages are so versatile but how many times have you reached for a potato to mash and some beans or peas and voilà?

Sausages are packed with flavour but they do need to be balanced out by good healthy portions of vegetables. Our Sausage Casserole recipe sets out a tasty option that’s packed with extra vegetables such as carrots and peppers that can be served with steamed green veg or a salad, instead of carb-heavy mash.
