quick houmus flatbread

This is barely a recipe but as it is something that I make almost every week and is so handy that I hope it helps get you out of a hole too.

On nights or lunchtimes when I need to get food into my boys’ hungry tummies fast I have a few staples I reach for. This is one of them. I’ve made a version of it since they were first on solids. Don’t be put off by thinking this is just food for children – it is a great quick healthy lunch for anyone. I love it alongside some home-made soup or sometimes with some shredded chicken and fresh tomatoes on top.

I keep wholegrain flat breads in the freezer all the time. They are perfect for throwing together a quick pizza-ish dinner or for serving with curries. You could also use pita or a tortilla. I also always have greens in the fridge and spinach in the freezer – that way I can throw a handful into whatever I’m making for dinner.
