Who doesn’t love Asian food?  Quick, delicious, sometimes spicy and utterly satisfying, rev up your regular at home meals with these simple tweaks to your favourite dishes.

1/ Swap starch-heavy sushi rice with quinoa.  The chewiness adds added texture to sushi rolls, and is full of fibre.

2/ Who doesn’t love a fresh Vietnamese roll?  Instead of rice paper, try using tofu sheets (available at Asian groceries), stuffed with fried prawns and rice.

3/ Combine a little Asian flair with tacos.  Fry wontons for an extra crisp shell, and top with pickled vegetables, rice, diced avocado and fresh tuna.
