| Lindsey Dickson's (The Eating Tree) delicious Quinoa bars are packed full of protein and energy - a great sustaining treat or the perfect snack to take out cycling. |
These delicious bars, packed full of energy, are great for me in the morning when I am running around doing umpteen things at once and a sit-down breakfast is just not going to happen. Unfortunately, as everyone knows, animals do not feed and water themselves, PE kits will not gather themselves together at the wave of a hand and cars will not magic the children to school without a driver. Mary Poppins I am not.
I keep these very easy to make bars in the fridge and grab one on the go. The combination of quinoa, oats, seeds and dried fruit keep me energised for a few hours until after the morning’s chores are out of the way.
Even though I do try to eat healthily, if I am eating a healthy treat I like it to taste good as well. If it tastes too ‘worthy’ I always think I might as well forego the calories and eat a stick of celery which is nice but not much of an indulgence. These are wonderfully buttery but not too sweet unlike a lot of commercially made granola bars.

Look no further than this umami-rich, plant-packed vegetable ragu full of diverse fibre and other nutrients to nourish you and your gut. Inspired by Yotam Ottolenghi's ultimate tray-bake ragu, this recipe contains even more plants. Hodmedod’s Broth Mix is the perfect base, containing no fewer than 7 different pulses and grains, and adding beautiful texture. The recipe packs in 12 different plants, not counting the herbs or spices, which add another half dozen. Serve with a side salad and you'll be well over 20 plants in a single meal.
This deliciously moist apple and walnut cake from Sarah Cotterell and Aitana Infante is made with sourdough but nonetheless simple and easy to make.
Flatbreads are a staple of many cultures around the word and would have been one of the first leavened breads as they don't require an oven and can be made over a fire by heating a flat rock. These flatbreads are quick and simple to make in a heavy bottomed pan on the hob and go well with a variety of dishes.
