Fava Bean Breakfast Spread
Awesome recipe! I ate this for lunch yesterday because I was starving and it sounded good and quick. The only thing I did a bit differently was that I added a bit of tahini. I also used the immersion blender right in the pot, so it was smooth and chunky. I had a ton of leftovers so this morning I heated a bowl up of the bean spread and topped it with a fried egg. This probably isn't authentic, but the beans taste amazing with the runny egg! As a breakfast its definitely very filling and nutritious!

Quick Artichoke Pasta Salad
This was really good. I added the zest and juice of one lemon for a bit more flavour. I also topped it with some feta. This is a great simple vegetarian dish!

Vegetable Cutlets
As written these are bland, but with my modifications they tasted great. I followed the recipe, but I didn't add the green beans until the final 3 minutes of cooking. I didn't want mushy vegetables. I hand mashed them and left some of the potatoes chunky. For seasoning I added 1 tablespoon (yes one tablespoon) of garam masala. I'm used to spicy food and this was still mild flavour with a kick. I also grated one medium onion and two garlic cloves. The first time I made this I used only seasoned bread crumbs. They turned out great, but this time I made them with 3/4 a cup of seasoned bread crumbs added to the potato mixture, and I dipped them in egg and about 3/4 cup of panko. They turned out much crispier. The seasoned bread crumbs added to the flavour, but I will continue to use panko as the breading. I top these with mango chutney. Everybody who has had them says they're great!
