• Watercress 85g


Preparation Instructions:

2 Cook the quinoa in salted boiling water according to the packet instructions. Place the broccoli in a metal colander and set over the boiling quinoa. Cover and steam the

broccoli for 3 mins.

3 Once cooked, drain and rinse the quinoa and broccoli under cold running water. Remove the sweet potato from the oven.

5 Peel the avocado, remove the pit/stone and roughly chop. Spread the quinoa and sweet potato mixture onto a serving plate and spread the avocado over the top.

6 Finally, mash the second half of the pomegranate with a wooden spoon to knock the seeds out of it, and then scatter these over the plate along with the toasted nuts.
