We've opted for a meat-free meal using just carrots, parsnips and peas to bulk it out but for carnivores, you could always add in your preferred meat.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="root-veg-pea-pilaf__square" class="ci-image ci-square" src="https://ui3.assets-asda.com/dm/root-veg-pea-pilaf__square_GL?scl=1"></p><h2>French-style beef casserole</h2><p>This rich, <a href="https://www.asda.com/good-living/recipe/french-style-beef-casserole" target="_blank">meaty recipe</a> is the epitome of comfort food.

Simply fry the onion, garlic, peppers and paprika in oil before adding tomatoes, simmering, and cracking in the eggs. Top with chopped chives, cheese and serve with hot toast &ndash; an indulgent breakfast, sure &ndash; but an equally satisfying supper, if you ask us. If you don't consider it a meal without meat, add a side of chorizo or crispy bacon.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="shakshuka-web__square" class="ci-image ci-square" src="https://ui3.assets-asda.com/dm/shakshuka-web__square_GL?scl=1"></p><h2>Chorizo & seafood jambalaya</h2><p>We&rsquo;ve given the Cajun classic a Spanish paella-style twist by adding in some chorizo and switching meat for seafood in our <a href="https://www.asda.com/good-living/recipe/chorizo-seafood-jambalaya" target="_blank">jambalaya</a>.
