How to make it
- Prepare the vegetables in bite-sized pieces. Use the grains and beans already cooked as specified. Keep raw salad vegetables, avocado, citrus, seeds and herbs aside for the finish.

- Add any tofu or tempeh and cook 5–7 minutes, stirring. Add cooked grains, beans and remaining cooking vegetables, plus broth if listed or a splash of water. Cover for 3–5 minutes until everything is steaming.
- Fold in leafy spinach if listed until wilted. Add the reserved fresh ingredients and seasonings; serve bread alongside if listed.
- Divide the finished recipe into the stated number of equal servings. All listed ingredients are included in the nutrition estimate.
