Picky Plate

Household fave picky plate

Serves: 2

Leftovers

This is a Friday dinner so we haven’t run with any leftovers however it would be super easy to do double the quantity as you go.

 

A Household Fave

This is an all time fave in my house. It started when I was pregnant when I couldn't handle eating anything cooked. Then it developed into a regular staple due to the freshness plus it’s such a simple way to end the working week.

 

What you'll need

2 carrots

2 stalks of celery

2 red peppers

1 cucumber

1 packet of cherry tomatoes

the other 1/2 bag of beans

the other 1/2 of your snow peas

hummus

red cabbage (whatever is left)

1 avocado

cheese of choice - I recommend grilled haloumi for a change

Optional Extras

toasted croutons

Optional: Make your own Hummus

Store bought is absolutely fine but if you want to make your own...

  • 1 tin of chickpeas
  • 1 tablespoon of tahini
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • olive oil
  • salt and pepper
  • fresh squeezed lemon
  • some water

Put it all together

Peel, wash and chop your veggies……. or just chop. If you have leftover wraps, toast them up in the grill with a light brush of olive oil then sprinkle on some sea salt for added crunch.

 

Fridge clean out:
I like to do a clean out of the fridge when preparing my picky plate. Grab those opened jars that are on your condiments shelf or in the back of the fridge like olives, sun dried tomatoes and gherkins. Chuck that all on the plate too or throw them in a mixing bowl with any oiled cheese that’s in the fridge like feta or goats cheese.
