Smokey Breakfast Beans

This smokey breakfast bean recipe is a much better alternative to something like Heinz Baked Beans for breakfast. Not only does it contain no sugar, but is also combines 5 additional vegetables into the mix to ensure you have already met your minimum vegetable quota for the day on one breakfast plate. As a result, it’s also lovely and filling. Creamy butter beans work really well in this recipe, but it would also work well with another type of bean such as cannellini beans, black beans, and even chickpeas.

Roasted Vegetable and Beluga Lentil Salad

This roasted vegetable and beluga lentil salad is such a simple recipe and it’s also deliciously nutritious. It’s got a Mediterranean feel but with North African seasoning to mix things up. Black beluga lentils are my favourite variety of pulses. They’re quick to cook and don’t go mushy like some others. They contain a good amount of plant protein, fibre and a number of minerals including calcium, potassium, magnesium and a number of B vitamins.
