Lottie Murphy's midweek meals and frittata

Summer is over and you might be feeling a little demotivated as the swimwear gets packed away and the jumpers come out. It's also so easy to start giving in to cakes and daily warming chai lattes on the go this time of year and that's fine but it's great to try sticking to balanced wholesome meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner to keep you on track and feeling great for Autumn. Eggs are perfect for all meals and really great this time of year when you're immune system might need a boost. A perfect midweek dinner below to try is this Butternut Squash, Courgette and Feta Frittata.
