Easy Ways To Eat Clean This Spring

Spring is well and truly in the air and the promise of summer is not far away. As well as lightening up our daily menus, we are trying to eat a little bit cleaner this season. Check out our easy ways to eat clean this spring for some non-judgy mealtime inspiration!

Get To Know Those Ancient Grains
Not just for the healthiest gurus amongst us, grains like barley, spelt and amarynth are very popular right now. Easy on the digestive system, and packed full of nutrients, they are a great way of bulking up without bulking out.

Love The Green Juice
Not content with juicing as a past time, this year we are advised to go as high in veggie juices as we can. The mainstay of celebs everywhere, green juices are packed with superfoods and nutrients and are a great way to start the day. Drink yours on an empty stomach for maximum benefits.

Add Some Veggie Days
Good for you, good for the environment, veg-packed main meal salads are our way forward this season.

Snack Like A Caveman
Think protein-rich snacks instead of hitting those carbs. There’s lots of great protein-rich snacks for sale in shops these days, but a simple snack of peanut butter spread on apple slices will do the job nicely, thanks very much.

Embrace The Cauliflower
Whether you’re making pizza from it or blitzing it in the processor to make ‘rice’ there’s no doubt that cauliflower is having its moment in the culinary sun. It’s really high in vitamin C, and is full of fibre, so it’s a great addition to your weekly  menu.
