From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Pesto and chilli courgetti

4 courgettes
Half a 190g jar basil pesto
A sprinkle of chilli flakes
100g cherry tomatoes

Use a spiraliser to create your “courgetti” from the courgettes.

Boil the courgetti for 20 seconds, drain and evenly stir in the pesto, making sure all of it is covered.

Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and toss into the dish. Serve with a generous sprinkling of chilli flakes.
