Bright and tasty!
This week’s recipe is courtesy of food blog The Awesome Green. Originally made with poached egg, we’ve decided to scratch that from the ingredients list for a vegan and pregnancy-friendly recipe.
Tasty, healthy and beautiful, it’s so colourful, it’ll have you thinking spring has come early.
Enjoy!
