Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Pasta with broccoli and lemon cashew-cream sauce

    • Astrid5555 on January 18, 2021

      Oven-roasted the broccoli instead of boiling it with the pasta, which I prefer much more. Kids believed me when I told them we were eating cheese sauce: this vegan cashew sauce tastes incredibly cheesy. Not my favorite broccoli pasta, but a quick and healthy weeknight dish with potential.

  • Super-green ricotta rolls

    • lou_weez on April 07, 2021

      These were really delicious. The 250g of ricotta didn't seem quite enough to bind all of the greens together so I upped the quantity to 450g and that seemed to do the trick.

Publishers Text

Australia's bestselling cookbook author and most trusted home cook, Donna Hay, returns with a beautiful new cookbook that you'll want to use every night of the week. There are endless arguments out there for bringing more vegetables to your table - your own wellbeing, your budget, our environment, the list goes on. Whatever your personal reason, there's one that I think is universal - FLAVOUR. Gone are the days where a sad salad or soft steamed carrots were our only options. These recipes use vegetables in a whole new way, adding so much life to your weekly routine. Who knew broccoli (in my mind the superfood of all vegetables) could make such a delicious pizza base, flat-bread or tart shell? Often for lunch, or even a snack, I'll bake my super-green falafels in the oven and my studio team love them. As for my boys? Their current weeknight request is my crunchy raw pad Thai - so yum. Inside Week Light, you'll find all these ideas and so much more. It's essentially my week in food, in a book - super-quick, family-friendly, fuss-free meals made REAL. Vegetables are at the forefront of nearly every recipe, with a few meat options thrown in, and there are lots of my all-time classics re-worked to include more goodness. This book is about using food to refuel and re-energise, while nurturing ourselves with flavour. Happy cooking!
