Eat with any meat, in tortilla wraps, with nachos or dipping vegetables, arepas, etc etc etc.

Pesto chicken pasta salad

In a bowl: roughly chopped spinach and lettuce, chunks of cucumber, cooked pasta (spirals work well), white seedless grapes (if you have any), and cooked (boiled/grilled) chunks of chicken breast (pork also works). 

Pour over: 1 portion of Greek yogurt, 2 tbs of pesto (adjust if using "real" pesto), 2 or 3 TVs of lemon juice, salt, pepper, a few slugs of (omega 3) olive oil - all mixed together. 

Smoothie lollies

In a blender roughly chop (pulse?) as one delicious fruit. Approx one peach/nectarine/Nutella cup of strawberries. 

Stir through one portion of Greek yogurt. 

Freeze in ice lolly molds.

Fajitas

Gently fry finely chopped onion and red pepper, remove when soft and onion is beginning to colour.

Fry finely sliced pork (or chicken or beef) tossed in a mixture of: garlic powder, cumin, paprika, cilantro, parsely, cayenne pepper, black pepper, salt. 

Add the onions and peppers back to the pan and mix all together. 

Serve with rice ("plain" or "Mexican" - lime and cilantro), sour cream (or Greek yogurt or creme freche), small lettuce leaves (or tortillas) to wrap it up in, avocado or guacamole, and napkins.

As plain as I can make it rice

Gently fry a couple of finely chopped shallots in oil. 

Rince 1 cup of rice. 

Add to the shallots and fry for a bit. 

Add 2 cups of water. 

Add (most of) one chicken stock cube (low/no salt!) - make sure it dissolves. 

Add about 1 tsp salt. 

Bring to the boil. 

Allow enough water to evaporate so that you can see all the rice. If you need to stir, do it before this point. 

Put over _extemely_ low heat and cover. 

Check after about 10 minutes. If it's too wet, leave it to cook longer. If it's too dry, and a ladleful of water and leave it to cook. 

When it's done, eat!!!

Additions: any or all combinations of: 

 normal onions, chopped carrots, peas, sweet corn, bacon (fried at the beginning), chickpeas, chopped green beans, chopped garlic, cilantro, lime juice (excellent with Mexican dishes), etc....
