whole foods. She explains which foods contain protein and the
simplest and most delicious ways to include a broad range in your
diet to ensure that you optimise your protein consumption with no

Three Seed Porridge with Berries for breakfast, Spicy Lentil Baked
Eggs for a power brunch, a nourishing Spring Root and Farro Salad
for lunch on the go and Halloumi and Pine Nut Burgers for a

bowls of energy such as Cauliflower Dhal with Coco-Lime Yogurt,
Annie shows that good nutrition and good food should always go hand
in hand.
