Some of my best recipes arise from making stuff up as I go along. This is one of them!
It's an incredibly simple meal and is a complete and utter cheat from start to finish. I've mentioned it a few times on my Meal Planning Monday posts and it always gets an excellent response and a request for the recipe, so here it is.
But first of all, a picture:
Aubergines, courgettes, red & yellow pepper, onion, extra virgin olive oil, basil, garlic, black pepper, basmati rice, halloumi.
I'd like to make out that it's really complicated but it's not. Aldi sell a bag of chargrilled mediterranean vegetables for £1.45. They also do boil in the bag basmati rice. Ten minutes in a wok for the vegetables, ten minutes in hot water in the microwave for the rice and toss the two together. Lightly grill the halloumi on both sides. Shove it all on a plate.
Et voila!

Got to love simple!
Sounds good, will give it a go sometime, especially as I love squeaky cheese 🙂

looks very similar to Jack's Tilda kids dinner that I've just posted! Simple is good.

I am all for a quick tip! I often do a risotto type quick tea but this is quicker still, thanks for sharing!
