Hetty Lui McKinnon says this vegetable sandwich is perfect for picnics, but there's nothing stopping you from eating it inside too.
Inspired by one of America's iconic deli sandwiches, this vegetarian iteration of muffuletta uses roasted vegetables rather than cold cuts and the olive salad infuses every bite with a zesty punch.
This sandwich can also be made ahead. Just reach for some bread (focaccia or ciabatta recommended).
Use this nourishing smash from Heidi Sze as you see fit, but between two slices of your preferred bread is an obvious (and delicious) choice.
This smash filling takes just 10 minutes and relies on a tin of inexpensive chickpeas as a base.
You can also play around with different flavour combinations, depending on your preferences and what you have handy. Trade parsley for chives, gherkins for capers or mayonnaise for plain yoghurt.
Pickled carrots, mayonnaise and chilli sauce meets with thinly sliced marinated steak in this banh mi.
The time-consuming part is marinating the beef for 30 minutes beforehand, but fear not it only takes 3 to 5 minutes to cook it.
This take on a traditional crispy banh mi comes from Loi Nguyen, one of the accomplished home cooks taking part in the Recipe of the Year.
Store-bought flatbreads, herby chicken, crunchy vegetables and a garlicky sauce are combined into an easy and satisfying meal in this recipe from Heidi Sze.
If weather and energy levels allow you could cook the chicken element of this meal on the barbecue, or even make the flatbread yourself.
