This delicious stew shows up regularly on my fall and winter menu. I love its tasty blend of savoury and sweet ingredients. Reminds me of the wonderful meals I enjoyed in Morocco.

This is one of my favourite salads. It's a simple dinner, especially if you live in warmer climates, and the leftovers are great for next day's lunch. This salad is loaded with flavour and can be made the day before.
Lemon, Blueberry and Millet Muffins
When added to baked goods, like these muffins, millet provides a crunchy texture and nutty taste.

This hearty vegetarian chili, packed with fibre- and protein-rich pulses, is super easy to make. Cocoa and cinnamon add a unique, subtle flavour that makes this chili taste delicious.
Kale Chips with Sea Salt
These tasty ‘chips’ are an easy way to eat more green leafy vegetables. They’re an excellent source of beta-carotene, lutein and vitamins C and K. I suggest making extra – they won’t last long!
Leslie's Overnight Bircher Muesli
This satisfying breakfast is an excellent source of gut-friendly prebiotic fibre and probiotics. Halve the recipe if you want enough for only three breakfasts.
Red Lentil Soup
Don't be fooled by their red hue - when cooked, red lentils turn pale yellow. And unlike many other pulses, red lentils are very quick to cook.
