Greek Beef & Vegetable stack

An amazing combination of Mediterranean flavours and vibrant colours. The beef can be heated if you prefer, but it is just as nice cold. The haloumi adds a strong, salty contrast to the soft subtle flavours of the vegetables.

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 20 minutes
Total time: 30 minutes
Serves: 4

Ingredients
  • 2 red capsicums, thick strips
  • 2 yellow capsicums, thick strips
  • 2 red onions, wedges
  • 2 zucchini, thick slices
  • 250g cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 2 garlic cloves still in skin
  • salt and pepper
  • 1–2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 250g haloumi, 1 cm thick slices
  • 600g cooked roast beef, 1 cm thick slices
Sauce
  • 4 tablespoons Greek yoghurt
  • 2 tablespoons mint sauce
  • 1–2 roasted garlic cloves, mashed
  • 1 large handful mint, chopped (optional)
Method
  1. Preheat oven to 200°C.
  2. Coat capsicum, onion, zucchini and tomatoes in olive oil and arrange together with the garlic cloves on a large baking tray (you may need two trays). Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook until tender but not too soft (about 20 minutes). Remove from oven.
  3. Heat a non-stick pan on medium heat. Toss haloumi pieces in the oil and cook for 1 minute each side until golden brown.
  4. Take the roasted garlic from the oven tray, cut the top off and squeeze out the garlic. Mash it with the back of the knife or chop it and mix with sauce ingredients in a separate bowl. Taste and adjust to your liking.
  5. Lay a slice of beef on each plate and arrange vegetables and haloumi in a stack on top.
  6. Drizzle with yoghurt sauce.

 Tip: To coat the vegetables, I like to put them in a plastic bag with the oil so they get coated evenly.

No Food Shaming.

If you grew up in the ‘80s, ‘90s, or early 2000’s, chances are you were taught to see food through a moral lens: veggies were “good,” chocolate was “bad,” and fat was something to fear. That messaging stuck.

So now, when you reach for a bag of chips after a long day or say yes to dessert, a quiet voice in the back of your mind is likely to whisper: “You shouldn’t.” You feel like you’ve done something wrong – simply for eating something you enjoy. And here’s the thing: our kids are watching. They’re listening. The way we talk about food becomes the way they relate to it.

If you want to raise confident eaters, it’s time to let go of the “good” vs “bad” food narrative and allow your kids to enjoy food without guilt or shame. Let’s be real; some foods are more nutrient-dense than others. But that doesn’t mean that we need to rank them on a scale. Instead of calling food “good” or “bad”, try talking about how it fits into the bigger picture of what our bodies need. 

Read on for a few ways to reframe the conversation:
