Superfood Salad (Ve)

Superfood Salad (Ve)

Today we're sharing a recipe that is great for supporting energy levels and gut health. A lunch recipe you can look forward to and prepare at the weekend so you're ready for the week ahead. This vegan meal prep is absolutely delicious and nutritious.

Kale

Perfect for meal prep since it does not get soggy easily and is packed with Vitamins A, K, C, B6.  Kale also contains a type of sugar called sulfoquinovose, which feeds the good bacteria living in your gut.

Carrots

A great source of Vitamin A, fibre and antioxidants.  

Quinoa

A great fibre source for digestive health, and can be helpful for blood sugar control. You may also like to read 'symptoms of high and low blood sugar' written by our nutrition team.
