These work well, either on their own for a lunch, starter or light supper. You can combine with the dressed lemon leaves and the minted courgette cubes if you wish to have a more substantial meal.
For those able to eat wheat...
Serve with toasted ciabatta slices.
If you have ciabatta leftover, use with the sublime tomato soup, the mushroom and sherry soup, the mushroom and herb provencal and the pepper paprikash. If you have beans leftover, see the bean chilli and the Mexican bean salad. If you have cherry tomatoes leftover, see the quick fling pasta.
