Looking for an easy but impressive bite that’s on the lighter side?

My top pick for guests or a nice lunch for your family is this Instant Pot tomato soup along with an egg-based dish such as this classic Spanish omelette (tortilla de patatas) this yummy zucchini slice or a perfect Mary Berry quiche lorraine. Also find out what to serve with quiche (40+ easy ideas).

For something a little different, make a light meal of these famous crispy halloumi fries or this yummy baked feta with tomatoes, feta and olives – or maybe both of them at once. You’ll impress everyone, from the youngest to the oldest.

Or why not treat yourself to brunch (or breakfast-for-dinner!) with these classic English pancakes or asparagus tartlets with bacon?
