Book SynopsisThese 52 recipes are a comprehensive range of diverse salads, including vegan salads, grain salads, Zoodle and seafood salads. Expect myriad flavours from across the globe. Imagine a Vietnamese-style chicken coleslaw, Mexican-spiced quinoa salad or a Japanese(ish) combination of edamame and chickpeas with avocado-lime dressing. Do you know what Korean-style Bibimbap is? The 5-Minute Salad Lunchbox explains, alongside its foolproof recipe. Sometimes preparing your food for the impending can feel impossible. You opt for the easy way out: buying lunch.

This book makes food prepping an exciting and nutritious lunch a total breeze. Lunch breaks should always be something to look forward to. A restorative breath – away from a working world of email chains, customer service nightmares or manual labor. Your mornings will be drastically improved by the comfort of knowing that your 5-minute salad awaits you. With the protein gained from any of these 52 salads, you can safely forgo that second afternoon coffee: this is all the energy your workday is ever going to need.
