Solo Cooks Meal Plan 7
This week, as it’s officially autumn, it felt right to have recipes that strike the balance of cosy comfort and an end-of-summer freshness from vegetables that won’t be featured as much over the next few months. We’ve got creamy orzo, crispy gnocchi, sticky chicken and crunchy vegetables- all in the same week! We eat well over here my friend. RECIPE NOTES: Use 1/2 red pepper, 1/2 courgette, 1/2 red chilli (optional) and 2 spring onions for the Korean vegetable pancake. Feel free to add any other leftover fresh vegetables you have lying around too! You need pesto for the chorizo, corn and courgette gnocchi. You can buy pesto OR you could make a homemade pesto using the mixture of leftover herbs you have. Simply blitz herbs with olive oil, 1 garlic cloves, a squeeze of lemon, nuts if you have them and some parmesan. TIPS FOR LEFTOVERS You can freeze any leftover gnocchi in portions, then pull it out and boil/bake from frozen when you next need it.
Korean Vegetable Pancake with a Chilli Crisp Egg
This vegetable pancake has its origin in Korea (where they’re known as yachaejeon) and is the perfect dish to use up odds and ends of any vegetables you have lying around.

Chorizo, Corn & Courgette Gnocchi
This is episode one of my new STUDENT SERIES where I’m sharing recipes, and maybe the odd bit of advice, so you are fully prepared for any student situation. This recipe is the perfect mid-week meal- an on-the-hob, not too fussy but still quite impressive meal that takes no longer than 20 minutes to whip up.

Creamy Chicken & Chorizo Pasta
This creamy chicken and chorizo pasta is the perfect single-serve, 20 minute weeknight dinner when you're cooking for one but want it to feel a bit more special. I think we should all be romanticising solo cooking because it really is such a joy!

Creamy Lemon Orzo
This is SUCH a simple dinner, perfect for a weeknight when you only want to spend 10 minutes cooking. It’s a very forgiving recipe so you can adjust the portion size or the amounts as per your preference.

Sticky Soy Glazed Chicken
The magic of this dish comes from the sauce- this sticky soy glaze can be spooned over many a main course but here I’ve gone for golden, pan-fried chicken thighs (though you can also find my soy glazed salmon recipe here too). The whole thing takes about 15 minutes and is a dinner I make again and again.
