This weekend the weather has been glorious. There is nothing like a bit of summer…
Spring Into Summer With Ryvita
Ryvita have recently created a range of new recipes which capture the seasonal tastes of Summer, allowing you to enjoy healthy meals without forgoing the taste. Ryvita asked me if I wanted to have a go at recreating one of their recipes and sent me some Ryvita for me to have a go at making one. I love Ryvita, the new range of flavours are really tasty and I often add some to my lunch box with different toppings.
I opted to try Crunchy Fish Finger Ryvitas with Crushed Peas and Two Minute Tartare Sauce. Fish finger sandwiches are very popular with my husband and son and this looked like an interesting twist on the sandwich. It uses Ryvita sunflower seed and oats crispbread as the base. The crispbread is topped with pea purée, fish fingers and a home-made tartare sauce for a snack that is bursting with flavour. As an easy to prepare lunch it is great, it was really quick to make. The pea purée works really well with the fish fingers and the tartare sauce just finishes it off perfectly. My son was not impressed when he saw them, he said I am not eating cardboard! When he tried them though he loved them and they disappeared fast. He also added a touch of ketchup to his which he said made them even nicer. Using Ryvita as a base makes them healthier than using white bread.
I will be definitely making these again, they are a lovely Summer recipe and perfect for either a light lunch or an evening supper on a hot day. If you wanted to make a bit more of a meal you could serve them with a large mixed salad.
