Part of the quinoa 'Double Up Dinner' recipe collection. This beautifully fresh salad bowl is bejewelled with pomegranates that add a lovely sharpness to the salad complimenting the creamy cheese. Note: It's important to blanche green beans before eating. Raw green beans contain lectins, which may trigger symptoms like nausea, diarrhoea, or vomiting. The lunch bowl will keep in the fridge for around 4-5 days. Note: This is about 2-3 servings dependant on the veg you use. Here are some swaps and suggestions: Use spring or red onion. Use any/all veg: Sugar snaps, blanched green beans, runner beans or fresh garden peas. To create a vegan dressing use maple or agave syrup.
