hi guys hope you’re well okay we are
doing jam jar salads something you can
rustle together very very quickly
something portable it could save you a
load of money this is the principle the
in your working days at work you could
be only having delicious healthy food we
want to have all the elements of a
balanced plate so also we want to get it
there you know if you put the dressing
at the top it’s going to make everything
soggy so there’s a kind of order that we
can do lovely complex carbohydrates
dressing and dairy two or three of your
five fruit and veg today yes this is
good stuff proteins we’ve got nuts
they’re completely nutritionally
balanced we have an Italian one we’ve
got an Indian one here crunchy pop it
onto the top always crunchy things at
the top and wet things like the dressing
down at the bottom so it doesn’t kind of
go soggy we want that we’ve got a
Moroccan one all of these things I’m
going to talk about are under 600
calories so I’m going to do a British
inspired one the glass is beautiful also
you’ve got Tupperware and plastic stuff
here
so first up carbs now you can swap this
out for rice whole wheat couscous pasta
you name it about 75 grams of any carb
pearl barley is great because it’s very
very British it’s going to release
energy nice and slowly so it’s going to
keep you full up for longer next up
beets these are raw just give them a
wash grate them you get amazing color
the whole point of these jam-jar salads
is that it shouldn’t take any more and
about three minutes to put together just
grab and go so in with our beets at the
bottom so it’s not going to color
anything else underneath it other than
the pearl barley we need to do a
dressing now extra virgin olive oil
don’t forget is a hundred and twenty
calories per tablespoon okay now I know
you’re hearing that from me who loves
extra-virgin olive oil but then we’re
going to go zero fat organic yogurt two
tablespoons as it’s zero fat it’s kind
of giving you the ability to use the
extra virgin olive oil and I call it you
one of that we want it to be purely
beautiful and balanced and healthy we
want a pinch of salt and pepper a nice
heaped teaspoon of grated horseradish
from the
a little squeeze of lemon juice just to
give it a nice little zing it’s really
really good we could put a few more
beets in there spinach watercress very
very British then we can go in with our
protein this is top side of beef so it’s
really lean that’s 70 80 grams is
perfect a little bit more spinach and
watercress really pack that in a lovely
red apple that will go Brown and a way
to fix it it’s just a little squeeze of
lemon juice and give it a little toss
around you can see even that little bit
of beetroot look at how it’s changed the
colour straightaway pop it in push it
down there we go
walnuts are actually one of the kings of
the nut world for is all you need good
for heart health sprinkle that on top
