Whether you eat your dinner at lunchtime, tea time, supper time or, if you work the night shift, breakfast time, it is essentially your main meal of the day. As such it is best if you make this meal tasty and appealing so that you get the most enjoyment you can out of this repast.
Choosing different foods for your dinner can not only bring variety into your diet but it can also expand your culinary experiences and widen the food choices you will have.
To make your dinners more exciting you could try adding a starter to the meal, an appetiser that creates excitement about what is on offer for the following course. Finish your meal off with a pudding or some cheese and fruit and you will be less likely to need to ‘snack’ before the next meal.
A great and easy starter can be made from tomatoes, basil, olive oil and crushed black peppercorns. If you want to you can add some small pieces of mozzarella cheese. This works well both with and without the cheese.
Slice the tomato and chop the mozzarella, if you are using it. Lay slices of tomato on a plate then some mozzarella next, then tomato and finish with mozzarella. Roughly chop some fresh basil leaves and sprinkle these over the top, drizzle sparingly with olive oil then top it off with crushed black peppercorns to taste.
For something a little different, chop the ingredients and mix together in a bowl, then lay salad leaves on a plate and spoon the mixture on top.
