Meredith Hayden is a private chef and recipe developer who takes her shopping trolley around NYC, then heads to the Hamptons with her clients in the summer. From ten-minute dinner ideas to elaborate five-course meals for a special night with the girls, there are recipes for every occasion.

For Excellent Cocktails:

Join Jules

Jules started making cocktails with her sister in lockdown before launching her TikTok account three years ago. Compared to other mixologists on the app, her recipes are easy to follow and use minimal ingredients, so you can learn to make classic cocktails with just a few things, as well as more unusual combinations you’ll want to serve at your next dinner party – mint martinis, anyone?

Maddi is like the best friend you didn’t know you needed. We love her ‘carbs before a night out are a must’ video series, in which she makes a quick dinner with a classic cocktail or two – think crispy chicken chilli noodles with negronis. She also shares the ingredients or food trends she’s loving, from pickled veg to pho takeaways.

2024 is about choosing health, wealth, and, most importantly, ourselves. Taking charge of our lives by making those small changes will make a big difference. And, for me, opting for this avocado oil from @Chosen Foods as my daily cooking oil is one of the ways I’ll be practicing mindful consumption for a long, healthy, and better life ahead.

Actually quick one pot Thai green noodles This is the recipe that I make when I don’t want to cook but want something fresh, filling and healthy. Its super versatile, you can swap the vegetables for whatever you have in your fridge and use whatever protein you like. Tip all into one pan, cover and leave to simmer until everything is cooked. Portion up and feel free to top with extra spring onion, coriander and some chilli. You will need to serve 2 450 kcal and 24g protein 1 tin light coconut milk 2 heaped tbsp Thai green curry paste 2 tbsp each fish and soy sauce 1/2 chicken stock cube 1 carrot, julienne or peeled into ribbons Handful tender stem broccoli 1 red pepper 3 tbsp peas or edamame 160g raw prawns 2 spring onion 2 nests of dried egg noodles Tip the coconut milk into a large saucepan.

OODLES OF NOODLES • EP 9: Miến Gà 🍜🐓 Yes she might look clean and simple but she is definitely not short of pure fragrance and comforting flavours. There are endless varieties of chicken noodle soups out there but Mien Ga is firmly one of my favourites! I actually made a slightly different version of this for a supper club once and it went down a treat! So why not give it go?? The best part has to be the crispy shallots & crispy garlic oil because it takes eating a regular chicken noodle soup to putting you infant of the gateways of heaven. Enjoy! Xxx •Ingredients (makes 3-4 bowls): 2.5 litres water 4-6 free range chicken thighs, with skins & bones 1 small onion, halved 2 carrots, quartered 4 sprigs spring onion, halved 5x 1cm thick slices of ginger 2x 1inch blocks of daikon 1 tsp salt 1 tbsp chicken powder 1 tsp msg 2 tbsp fish sauce 1 cube palm sugar 2 shallots, finely sliced 100ml veggie oil 10-12 garlic cloves, minced Pinch of salt & sugar 200-250g glass vermicelli noodles *After 45mins-1hr gentle simmer, season to taste. I used: 2 tbsp fish sauce 1 tsp pepper •Garnish: -finely sliced spring onion, chillies & coriander -crispy shallots, crispy garlic oil & cracked pepper optional: squeeze of lime ***My bowl is from @madeinjapanuk 🥣 •Tips: -wash your chicken, put in salted boiling water for 2-3mins to draw out all impurities & drain (this cleans chicken properly + keeps broth clear) -start stock pot with cold water and turn heat up -when chicken, aromatics & seasonings are in, bring to gentle simmer for 45mins-1hr for optimal result. -dont get oil too hot for shallots and garlic as you want the fragrance drawn out without burning it too quickly -drain shallots & garlic a minute or 2 before you think it’s ready as the residual heat will keep cooking it. Ie don’t wait until it goes brown otherwise it will burn -soak glass noodles in boiling water for 10 mins, drain & rinse with cold water. Microwave a portion of noodles for 1 minute before adding broth #mienga #oodlesofnoodles #glassnoodles #noodlerecipe #noodles #homecooking #vietnamesefood #vietnamesenoodles #chickensoup #chickennoodlesoup #asiancooking #comfortfood

Deep green vegan pasta. A delicious and nourishing health boost for these colder months ahead. Takes no time at all to make, uses just five ingredients and just so happens to be vegan. Although I do love it with a dollop if whipped ricotta on top. This makes enough sauce for 4-5 portions. 250g cavolo nero, 200g spinach, 1 clove of garlic, 1 lemon, 100ml olive oil. #pasta #recipe #cooking #vegan #healthy #delicious #fyp

For Vegan Dishes:

Natalia Rudin

Vegan cooking doesn’t have to be carb-heavy or repetitive, and there are plenty of TikTok chefs to prove it. One of our favourites is Natalia Rudin, who creates tasty, vibrant dishes packed with fruit and veg. She makes lots of hearty stews, as well as dishes topped with pickles and generous bowls of pasta full of plant-based protein. A wise follow for meat-free Mondays.
