The Perfect Gut-Healing Chicken Soup When trying to improve your gut health, be sure to include lots of gut-loving foods like bone broths! My favourite bone broth recipe can be found here, it's from BePure and the flavours are beyond amazing. I like to prep a lot of bone broth in advance and then freeze it in 1.5 litre lots. This means that it's perfect portioned for this recipe - my favourite soup. To keep the chicken fresh throughout the week, I like to batch my chicken into 2-day portions and freeze them. Every second day during the week, I'll defrost a batch of chicken and quickly poach it for 7 minutes in a pot of boiling water and this easy lunch is ready to go!

2. Stella's Super Slaw This is a wonderful meal prep dish and a great way to pack lots of vegetables into a lunch meal. The opportunities are endless for toppings, extra protein options or the addition of noodles for an extra boost. It's surprising how well this salad keeps during a week as well. This gives you the option to reduce the amount of prep required for your daily lunch, while still giving you the opportunity to add variety throughout the week with different flavour/topping variations. This recipe is definitely worth a try. Check out our recipe here! 3. Detoxifying Cauliflower Tabbouleh Cauliflower is known as a cruciferous vegetable - alongside the likes of broccoli, cabbage, kale and turnips. This is because they contain important phytochemicals that are released when they are chopped, chewed, fermented, cooked and digested. In simple terms, try to incorporate these vegetables as often as possible! They aid great detoxification throughout the body. This recipe is a lovely wee lunch, and a protein element could easily be added if you are more of the protein type. This recipe is originally sourced from BePure, so be sure to check out their original recipe here. You'll Need:
