Recipes

Jennifer along with her chefs and nutritional experts have spent time creating some loved dishes here at Balance Box. Here are some below that you can try yourself at home.

Wasabi Brown Rice & Soya Bean Salad

We are nothing if not over-excited about the virtues of the soy bean. It’s pure genius. Not only is it instantly convenient, it’s also an incredible source of protein and has a lovely bite. This salad is packed with flavour and is really simple to make.

Courgette, Butterbean and Feta Cakes

These scrumptious little cakes can be enjoyed a multitude of ways. As well as being the focal point of a lovely dinner, they also make a delectable sandwich filling (see upcycle)

Preheat oven to 220C/425F/Gas Mark 7, and place a non-stick baking tray inside.

Breakfast Cranachan

Our founder Jennifer Irvine’s husband is Scottish, and so naturally cranachan is a favourite in her house. While traditionally cranachan is made with whisky, she created this lighter alcohol-free version, with extra nuts and fruit, which is perfect for breakfast.

Serves: 2
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Wheat free, Vegetarian

Prawn cocktail with virgin mary sauce

This classic eighties starter makes a wonderful protein-packed lunch. We’ve added our won twist, in the form of pureed avocado, to ensure you get some great essential fats.
