Chow mein is one of my favourite dinners to knock up in a hurry – and an excellent receptacle for odds and ends of vegetables kicking around in the fridge. Some dried noodles contain egg, so flip the packet over in the supermarket and check the ingredients. If you do struggle to find egg-free Chinese-style noodles, you can use dried spaghetti instead. It won’t be strictly traditional, but it’ll still be delicious.

Overnight Oats is a great recipe to make the night before, as it’s a healthy breakfast to just grab and eat straight away in the morning. Try using this as a base recipe and adding different fruits, seeds, spices and nuts to find your favourite topping!

This one-pot rice dish not only saves you washing up time, but can be easily adapted to use ingredients you already own.

These brownies make for a cheap yet decadent dessert, using only a few ingredients, for the fudgiest result!
