Wholewheat Spaghetti Tossed in Le Roule, Topped with Pan-Fried Salmon.
Every busy parent needs a handful of go-to recipes that are quick and easy to make yet nutritious and filling too.
The children adore Le Roulé, which is hand-rolled cheese log filled with garlic, herbs, cranberry and peppers.
I simply like to add some paprika and a little sweet chilli sauce to the salmon to give the dish a kick.
I use whole wheat pasta which is packed full of fibre (typically three times as much as regular white pasta) as well as higher levels of vitamin E, major B vitamins, antioxidants, protein and healthy fats.
