What to expect in our early summer issue of easyFood Magazine

Early summer is one of our favourite times of year. The evenings are longer; the weather is usually (at least a little) warmer; we – and our bare legs – are out and about more; and most of all: we get to start enjoying eating outside – it’s the little things!

Spending more time outdoors sometimes means there’s less time in the kitchen – and we get that. That’s why this issue is loaded with recipes, ideas, tips and tricks to help you make the most of these glorious summer days.

Read on for a taste of what’s in store…

Sensational, seasonal favourites

In this issue, we’re aiming to spread a little hap-pea-ness, with an entire recipe section dedicated to the fresh, vibrant veggie which is at its peak right now! From pea, pistachio and chorizo linguine to chicken biryani with peas, there’s something for everyone (and every craving!).

We can’t forget about seasonal summer tarts either! Proudly gracing the cover, we have our crowd-pleasing peach, prosciutto and mascarpone galette – the perfect meal to enjoy with friends and family while the sun’s shining.

Dining al fresco

Picnic season is well and truly here, and we’re not one bit mad about it! From easy fried chicken and Asian slaw and dips to die for, to posh hot dogs and pitchers of cocktails that were made for sharing – we’ve got you covered!

The ultimate cheesecake combos

Make-ahead desserts are a summertime staple, which is why in this issue we’re mashing together creamy, sweet cheesecakes with some of our favourite treats. Would anyone like a slice of orange Solero cheesecake? How about some peach cobbler cheesecake? We’ve got it all!

Plus, in this issue our baking extraordinaire, Safiq shares her expertise and teaches easyFood readers about kitchen confidence and getting comfortable in an apron.

Exclusive interviews & food culture adventures

Take a trip to Türkiye and enjoy a host of olive-themed recipes, inspired by our recent travels. Plus, make sure to check out our exclusive interviews with top chefs and food producers on the food scene.

Super simple midweek meals

It wouldn’t be easyFood without a week’s worth of quick, easy-to-make recipes the whole family will love, and this issue is no different. Take the stress out of meal-planning with fuss-free recipes that can be whipped up in a pinch.

For those of us excited to get stuck into an array of summer activities, make sure to stock up on fuel foods, and check out our collection of protein-rich, nourishing recipes.
