Check this protein packed vegetarian surprise for lunch today.
The Chickpea Hot Pot is a sneaky vegetarian dish that's like a big warm hug! They'll never know there's no meat. Chickpeas and lentils are a fantastic source of plant-based protein. They're high in fibre and great for gut health. It's a fav!

Today's Roast Chicken, Lettuce & Vegan Mayo Sandwich is just one of the sandwiches on the menu today!
They're fresh and made with special care for your littles. The soft wholemeal bread is baked fresh to our special low salt recipe. Our chicken is roasted in a blend of herbs and spices for flavour, but with no nasty additives or sodium. We whipped up our amazing egg free mayonnaise that looks & tastes exactly like the real thing so no one misses out on mayo's creamy bliss, and then our sandwich team lovingly made them this morning. Enjoy!
