I love simple recipes that come together quickly and are adaptable — it means you don’t get sick of them and can adapt them to suit your current season or the ingredients you have on hand.

This is one of those vegetarian keto recipes — it’s really quick and great to throw together for a snack or as a healthy starter. You could flake through some canned or smoked fish or shredded chicken for extra protein, or keep it meat-free and stir through some roughly mashed hard boiled eggs.

Swap out the asparagus for some grated zucchini or roasted cauliflower, omit the feta in favour of some cubed, fried halloumi or some ricotta. If you don't want to use any apples, try radishes instead — although almost any whole foods can be used in small amounts when you follow a low-carb diet. You can change up the flavour profile by using different herbs or adding spices to the dressing (smoked paprika works well here). The options are endless!
