I'll be honest, I made a good few changes in this recipe. I woke up this morning and realised I had nothing to take to work for lunch so I needed something quick to make that I could leave in the oven. Unfortunately the lack of pre-planning meant I had to use what ingredients I had to hand. Changes: I used nothing but raw cashews (my fave, so probably would have opted for that anyway), 1/2 a red and 1/2 a yellow onion, I was out of mushrooms so used a grated courgette/zucchini instead, I used 2 eggs as I only had medium sized ones and one wasn't enough to bind the mixture, I used dijon mustard mayo instead of dijon mustard (again because it was all I had) and I only had about 75g of halloumi cheese left so had to make do with that. So not major changes but lots of little amendments. Even so, this was a good recipe recipe. Quick and easy to make and nice to just fling in the oven and leave. The addition of courgette/zucchini was nice, so in future I might use half mushrooms and half zucchini. Only having half the cheese made it more low fat but I think the full amount was really needed as the halloumi was a bit lost in the recipe and it was left tasting a little bland. My only real bug was that I think the herbs were a bit on the heavy side. The parsley worked nicely but the dried herbs tasted really strong to me, and I only used 1tbsp in the first place as I'm not a big fan. In future I will use probably just 1tsp and perhaps add something else instead. All in all a really nice recipe - great to take to work for lunch, healthy, tasty and a definite keeper. Thanks PinkCherryBlossom!
