Black Bean Salad


This is a wonderfully refreshing salad and you don't have to stick to the exact quantities in the recipe. So simple to make and the colours look so vibrant in the bowl.

Beetroot, Carrot, Apple and Walnut Salad


I adore beetroot and could eat it by the plateful. The deep, rich colour makes salads very attractive and it's so full of nutrients, it's bursting at the seams. Beetroot contains a unique source of phytonutrients called betalains which have been proven to have anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties. A source of folate, manganese, potassium, vitamin C, tryptophan, magnesium, iron, phosphorus and copper, this sweet vegetable is also believed to be good for the heart and a great liver cleanser. This salad tastes very fresh and only takes a few minutes to prepare.

Coleslaw



Coleslaw is nutritious, delicious, easy to make and doesn't break the bank. Lovely with other salads, in wraps, sandwiches and just on its own, this wonderful and colourful  dish is a family favourite and popular all over the world.

Red Slaw


This recipe is so simple and quick to make but tastes heavenly and it has to be our favourite salad of the moment! I've used my egg-free mayonnaise in this recipe but you can use your own favourite if you wish.
