Red Rice Salad | Recipe

A beautifully wholesome dish with a colourful twist – we use red rice for extra vibrancy. This salad is filling yet refreshing and could easily become a satisfying main by adding some extra leafy greens. Serve warm or cooled.

Giant Couscous Salad with Saffron-Roasted Tomatoes & Beetroot | Recipe

This salad is deliciously rich and generous, with earthy, punchy flavours. I serve it with Greek yoghurt and harissa on the side, or pair it with the Labneh, Dukkah, Salted Cucumber and Radishes, and perhaps a couple of dips.

Courgette, Chickpea & Feta Salad | Recipe

This salad is delicious warm as a light dinner, or at room temperature when on a picnic. The beauty of it is that the flavours get better the longer it sits. I like to eat it with some peppery wild rocket leaves, served on the side (keeping it separate stops the leaves wilting on the way to the picnic).

A delicious coconut-inspired recipe from Cathedral Cove Naturals.

French Lentils, Beetroot and Goat’s Cheese Salad | Recipe

Hearty and sustaining — but not so much that you need a lie-down after eating it. This also keeps well in the fridge for a couple of days. If you can find golden beetroot, they look especially appealing in this salad (shredded raw carrot or pumpkin will look great too).
