Big Bowl of Goodness

Hellooo!

Just thought I'd quickly share with you what I made for lunch today because it tasted so good!





I chopped one small avocado, a quarter of a sweet red pepper, and a small handful of cherry tomatoes. Then I baked some kale in the oven (just popped a few handfuls in a small baking tray and drizzled with olive oil and a bit of salt) and steamed some tender stem broccoli. Then there are some puy lentils from one of the Merchant Gourmand packs (really quick and useful).

I made the houmous earlier by blending 1 400g tin of chickpeas, 2 teaspoons of tahini, 5 tablespoons of cold water, 1 teaspoon of cumin, the juice of 1 lemon and a dash of paprika and salt - I definitely prefer making my own houmous rather than buying it from a shop because it tastes better (if I may say so myself) and you know exactly what has gone in it (some shop-bought dips contain so much unnecessary sugar or other nasties that it's definitely worth making your own). 

To top it off, I sprinkled on a little bit of feta and some sunflower seeds.

This simple but delicious salad kept me full all afternoon and is full of vitamins and other goodness.

Happy Friday everyone! x
