Sweet potato soup is a big bowl of comfort. It’s vegan, has cheap ingredients, is quick and easy to make. It can also be frozen for future lunches and dinners. Perfection! Each serving provides 234 kcal, 3g protein, 43g carbohydrates (of which 16g sugars), 4g fat (of which 0.5g saturates), 9g fibre and 0.5g salt.
Pav bhaji is carb heaven. Spiced mashed potatoes and vegetables are scooped into soft bread rolls. They are a cornerstone of street food in Mumbai and made with their own masala spice blend. There’s lots of ingredients here, but they are actually very easy to make.
The secret to this sandwich is to do nothing. That’s right, just let it rest for an hour or more so that the vinegary sweet juices soak into the bread.
It’s a BLT, but not as you know it! The ‘smoky bacon’ is actually marinated tofu, baked in the oven until crisp, for the ultimate vegan sandwich. Each serving provides 749 kcal, 30g protein, 51.5g carbohydrates (of which 18g sugars), 44g fat (of which 7g saturates), 14g fibre and 3g salt.
You won’t be tempted by a kebab once you’ve tried this perfect post-pub cheesesteak sandwich. Add mustard or chilli sauce if you need to clear your head.
