Prep these wholesome dishes in advance to ensure you always have something for lunch or dinner at hand
Struggling to find the time to prepare a hearty, home-cooked meal? Too tired to cook by the time you get home from work? Introducing batch cooking, a type of meal prepping that involves making large batches of food ahead of time (normally over the weekend), to be frozen and eaten over a span of weeks – or even months.
Batch cooking doesn’t mean compromising on taste, texture or nutrition. Our easy vegan and vegetarian recipes are inspired by world flavours and are your gateway to healthy eating resolutions – why opt for greasy takeout when you already have a wholesome meal at home, ready to go?
Whatever you're in the mood for, prep and set yourself for weeks to come with our recipes (from left to right):
- Celery, chickpea and dumpling stew: a hearty vegan dish made with turmeric, miso and chickpeas for when you're in need of comfort food.
- Mushroom chilli with lime sour cream: a meatless, moreish chilli paired with cooling sour cream and a zing of lime.
- Black-eye pea masala with kale: a vegan stew brimming with the spices and aromas of garam masala.
- Butter beans with agrodolce dressing: tender butter beans coated in sweet, sour and sticky agrodolce dressing and topped with peppery watercress.
