Not sure of the fine details 237, digestability is key though.

Thanks Pasta, River Cottage, Yotam Ottolenghi and that style are very much my comfort zone :-)
How about a fattoush salad with cooked veg instead of the usual tomato and cucumber? Maybe with chargrilled asparagus and courgette with sumac dressing and maybe a dollop of moutabel for good measure?

That's a really good idea, 237. Won't be able to use asparagus sadly as it will be outnof season but a fattaoush type salad and moutabel, muhammara etc style meze is brilliant!
I love moutabel. It`s easy to make as well although it`s not the same without the griddle that they use in the Middle East to get that burnt taste. If I remember rightly, I slightly scorched it under the grill after roasting to get the smokey flavour.
I'd never heard of moutabel before...but that sounds yummy.

And aubergines are really cheap right now...:-)
Cook some rice, allow to cool in the fridge. Couscous also does well.

Chop onion and peppers, add to rice.

Add cooked sweetcorn and peas

Add fruit...my mum used to add mandarin oranges but I like either halved grapes or thinly sliced pineapple.
