Avocado Chicken Salad
We love this salad served on top of greens as much as we love it between two slices of Sourdough Bread. If you can't find a good ripe mango, pineapple would be delicious as well!

Antipasto Bites
Fresh tortellini makes this the hearty appetiser of our dreams. If you're not a fan of olives, pepperoncini peppers would be a delicious substitute!

Basil Avocado Prawn Salad Wraps
Lettuce wraps are the one of the best ways to eat healthy (and low carb). These wraps are stuffed with our new favourite twist on prawn salad: basil avocado.

Moroccan Carrot Salad
This carrot-and-raisin salad gets an upgrade with a slightly spicy, slightly sweet, and very addicting sauce. It brings out the sweet freshness of the carrots and makes the whole dish sing. We are tempted to pour it over all of our salads from here on out.

Lentil Salad
This super versatile lentil salad is a meal-preppers dream. It's healthy, it's flexible, it keeps for a full week, and it tastes better the longer it sits! Have we convinced you yet?!

Roasted Chickpeas
Chickpeas are good for so much more than just creamy homemade hummus. (Though, that's definitely a good use of them!) They also make for a particularly good salty snack, and are infinitely adaptable based on what you've got in your spice cabinet.

Avocado Crisps
Having a hard time getting your crisps nice and thin? Spray the bottom of a dry measuring cup with nonstick cooking spray and press lightly on the scoops of avocado mixture to flatten. It's super easy, and totally mess-free!

Chicken Salad Sandwich
This chicken salad baguette is just delicious...

Courgette Crisps
How thinly you slice your courgette will affect how long it'll take in the oven. We recommend checking on the crisps after about an hour, though it'll almost definitely take longer than that.

Egg Salad Sandwich
Once you boil your eggs, this classic sandwich practically makes itself.
