Find a few favorites and keep these on rotation!

1. Lamb chops with potatoes and a fennel salad

   1. Lamb chops will last well in the fridge if you cook up a bunch at the start of the week. Take 1-2 per day depending on their size.

   2. Roast a tray of potatoes and also keep these in a container. Serve these with aioli daily. 

   3. Use a mandolin or finely shave/chop fennel and red onion. Add toasted walnuts, rocket and parmesan if you tolerate dairy. Serve with a dijon mustary, honey, lemon and olive oil dressing.
