The pretty little jewel like seeds of pomegranate always cheer up a simple dish. Pomegranate molasses is now available in many shops and is thick and fragrant, a lovely tangy reduction of pomegranate juice, adding depth of flavour to many dishes. Quinoa is high in protein and this makes a nice satisfying lunchbox.

I was inspired by Jamie Oliver’s superfood salad YouTube clip that I watched on the train back from London yesterday, so when I got back home I had a ferret around to see what ingredients I could use up based on this high protein salad.

It’s London Marathon weekend and yesterday Rob, a keen sportsman, asked me if I could suggest a high protein low fat lunchbox meal to take in to work. You can make this the night before, eat it for supper even! adding a few more things to it that take your fancy, maybe some feta, some seeds.
