Easy Peasy Beetroot Tzatziki Dip

    Look in my fridge and you will find an abundance of yogurt. Usually, not just any yoghurt, but Total Greek FAGE 0% yogurt. The stuff is divine. It's creamy enough to enjoy as a rich desert with various toppings whilst also being extremely healthy ; high in protein, low in fat and no added sugars.
It is also extremely versatile and easy to cook with in savoury dishes.
I needed a flavouring or dip for my salad the other evening and feeling uninspired by the choice of herbs and spices in the cupboard, I threw together this colourful dip, using only 4 ingredients.

It's literally so simple.

Beetroot (diced into small cubes), Lemon Juice, 0% Greek Yoghurt, Oregano or Mixed Herbs.

Ready for the step by step. It's detailed and tricky, I'll warn you now.
Ready?

1. Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl.
......
That's it. It can't get any more simple than that! Obviously it's best served chilled and I wouldn't recommend keeping it for days on end, but it's a lot healthier than a lot of pre-packaged dips and not to mention cheap too! I used Tesco's Basics beetroot so I reckon that per serving, this comes in at about 20p? Maybe even less.

Chilli and Ginger Steamed Salmon with Sautéed Vegetables and Mango-

    I'll admit, I prefer fish to meat. Always have done. Always will do. When I get salmon, it literally makes me happy inside! It infuriates me when students say that eating healthily and nutritious/interesting food is expensive and can't be done. FOOLS!

Most of my meals cost a lot less to put together than buying excessive takeaways and eating out, plus I enjoy them more and my body appreciates them too!

    I've found shopping in Asian supermarkets quite an experience! The fruit and vegetables are extremely cheap (the other day I got 20 oranges for a £1 and 4 cucumbers for a £1! and three mangoes for £1) and fresh, and you find some real treasures there too! Coconut essence? Bingo. Ginger? Bingo. Spices? CHECK! Anyway, I'm going off on a tangent here. This was really simple to make and light and fresh too!

♥ 1 Small Red Pepper (sliced and diced)
♥ 1 Small White Onion (small slices)
♥ 1 Garlic Clove
♥ 50g Dried Mango Slices
♥ Chilli Flakes

♥ 2 Pieces of sliced fresh ginger

♥ 2 Salmon Fillets

1. Sautee the vegetables in a pan over a low heat so the pepper slightly chars and the onion goes soft. Add half the ginger, the chilli flakes and set aside.
2. Steam the salmon fillets until soft and flaky, top with the ginger and chilli before wrapping in tinfoil and allowing the flavours to settle.
3. Add the mango to the vegetables and allow to soften and get warm. Then, serve the salmon on top of the vegetables and serve.

I chose to serve my salmon with a sweet potato, and courgette and spinach salad.
