Myself and my other half are on a vegetarian buzz for the month of April. We are trying to eat less meat because we are both animal lovers and we kind of baulk at the thoughts of killing animals. The minute we embarked on this venture, all my favourite cookery started cooking lovely lamb dishes for Easter. Like everything you only miss it when it’s gone.

I was on the hunt for vegetarian recipes, and I came across this recipe from the Weight Watchers magazine May issue. I really liked the yogurt and feta topping. I was only short of liking the plate after eating this. Hope you enjoy.
