Avocado & orange salad

Slice ½ avocado into a plastic container with segments from ½ orange, handful rocket leaves and a handful chickpeas. Add a squeeze orange juice, splash olive oil and a splash red or white wine vinegar. Pop on the lid and shake to mix.

Carrot & seed sarnie

Grate 1 carrot and mix with 1 tsp sunflower seeds, 1 tbsp raisins, a very small handful beansprouts and 1 tbsp of your favourite light fruity dressing (we used Sainsbury's Mango & chilli dressing). Spoon into a wholemeal roll or between 2 slices wholemeal bread.

    Made this for lunch the night before (including soy mixed in - shock horror) and was still really tasty when it came to eating it, although the carrots were a little floppy! I also added a squeeze of lime juice for a bit more zing and some fresh coriander.

    Yummy! I made with egg noodles, mangetout, sugarsnap peas and spring onions. I used turkey and added a drizzle of sweet chilli sauce with the soy. Delicious, healthy lunch!
