Thanks to the popularity of gluten-free/sugar-free/raw/vegan diets, there is no shortage of inspiration for dishes to feed yourself and your family. No need for wall-to-wall carbs, nor protein and potatoes every meal. Use vegetables as the cornerstone of your menus, with the occasional addition of fish or meat.

Invest in a cheap spiraliser — mine is like a pencil sharpener and makes light work of courgettes, spinning them into courgetti (spaghetti-style strips) in minutes. Keep one in your Passover culinary kit. And a mandolin will help you make “lasagne” sheets out of butternut squash.

My courgette with avocado pesto takes minutes to pull together, is as pretty as a picture and will leave you feeling saintly. Any leftover pesto makes a great dip.
