This superstar chef has been busy cooking up our sweet and smokey beans for tea.

Chop 1 sweet potato into chunks, drizzle in oil and cook in the oven at 200°c for about 30 minutes until they’re golden brown.

Carefully peel and chop 1 onion and a garlic clove (with goggles like Figgy!) and chop 1 red pepper. Put a large saucepan on a medium heat and add 1 tbsp olive oil along with the onion, garlic, red pepper, and 1 tsp each of ground cinnamon, sweet paprika and cumin seeds. Cook until everything is soft and lightly golden, stirring often to make sure it doesn’t stick.

Add 1 tin of haricot beans (drained and rinsed) and 400g passata to the pan. Stir and bring to a simmer. Cook for 20 minutes until the sauce is thick. Season to taste.

Spoon the beans into bowls and top with the roasted sweet potato chunks, guacamole, sour cream, grated cheese and/or crumbled tortilla chips (so good!)

We’ve been busy adding lots of teatime ideas to our website for speedy after school meals - most of them can be made in advance and quickly reheated, or cooked on one tray to minimise washing up and fuss.

I’ve had lots of conversations over the last couple of weeks with parents who are feeling the fear and stress of packing lunchboxes for their children everyday. And I totally get it - we all want to fuel our children well and give them the energy they need to get through the school day, but time is short, school days are busy and lunchboxes can feel really challenging.

I want to help! I’ve put together an ebook - a guide to stress free lunchboxes - that’s full of lunchbox ideas and time-saving tips and tricks as well as my simple formula for packing a lunchbox. I hope it will help to ease any stresses and make these school days run a little more smoothly for you.

Here’s one of our favourite mid-week meals from @gkstories if you’re in need of some inspo for teatime. This is a great shout for a school night - you can prep the veg before pick up, or quickly chop it up when you get home, then pop it in the oven to do it’s thing. Roasting veg gives it a char and caramelisation that adds sweetness and a crunchy texture that goes down well with kids. Serves 4.

Preheat the oven to 200C. Chop about 800g of your favourite veg (potatoes, sweet potato, beetroot, parsnip, carrot, cauliflower, red onion are good here) in to bite sized chunks and put on a tray. Toss with a little olive oil and some salt, then spread out and roast for about 30-40 minutes until the veg are golden and tender. Add a drained tin of black beans or chickpeas towards the end of the cooking time. Top with green pesto, lemon or yoghurt and spiralized apple or cucumber (you could thinly slice or grate if you don’t have a spiralizer). Easy peasy and super delicious for the whole family.
