2. Choose your vegetable

Sweet potato, cauliflower, white cabbage or broccoli work particularly well, whether raw, braised, boiled or oven roasted.

3. Proteins

Lentils, tofu, tempeh, kidney beans, chickpeas etc can be roasted in the oven or fried in a hot pan. Lightly spice them for more flavour.

4. Salad, raw veg, sprouted seeds etc

Fresh seasonal raw veg such as grated carrots, cabbage, cucumbers and sliced radishes, cherry tomatoes, steamed vegetables and shoots add colour to your veggie bowl.

5. Topping

Nuts, seeds or berries are ideal toppings.

6. Good dressing

The right dressing is really important. A honey and mustard dressing goes with almost everything: 1 part mustard, 1 part honey and 1 part natural yoghurt. Mix well and season with salt and pepper.
