1 Order in fresh
Veg always going off in your fridge? “Use a food delivery service that ships the exact ingredients you need along with simple recipe cards to your door,” says Giles Humphries, co-founder of mindfulchef.com.
2 Play with your veg
“Invest in a spiraliser,” says Humphries. “These cheap gadgets transform your dinners.” Think carrot ribbons and sweet potato noodles. “You won’t get the same blood sugar spike as with white starchy pasta.”
3 Blitz in a smoothie
Fill your juicer with nutrient-dense veg in place of just sugary fruit. “Start your day with a kale, spinach, banana and almond milk mix for an iron-rich, fibrous boost,” says Humphries. Add spirulina for extra vitamins and protein.
4 Convert into rice
“Swap carbheavy rice for innovative – and more flavoursome – cauliflower or broccoli rice,” says Humphries. Mix it up in a food processor (or buy it ready-riced) for a creative, low-GI option.
