6 Healthy Easter Recipes | Mindful Chef

March 23, 2018

Celebrate Easter with these 6 hearty, yet healthy, recipes. Choose from one of three lamb recipes or opt for our vegan suggestions and finish off with our decadent chocolate mousse for the perfect Easter feast.

1. Slow-cooked lamb with crushed potatoes

Slow Cooked Lamb with crushed Potatoes
Treat your family to a traditional Easter lunch, try our slow cooked tender lamb shoulder simmered in a herby tomato sauce alongside crushed potatoes and green beans. Fresh rosemary, parsley and bay add a fragrant aroma to the sauce with the bonus of offering medicinal properties.

2. Persian spiced lamb with pomegranate and tzatziki

If you’d rather spice things up, try our fragrant spiced lamb with pomegranate quinoa and tzatziki, made with thick coconut yoghurt, refreshing cucumber, zingy lemon and mint for aiding digestion.

3. Lamb steak with mint sauce and parsnip mash

If you’re short for time, try our super speedy succulent lamb roast with homemade mint sauce, alongside parsnip mash and purple carrots (rainbow or regular orange carrots will also work well!).

4. Scandi-style lentils beets and coconut yoghurt

Scandi-style lentils, beets & coconut yoghurt

This warming Scandinavian-inspired dish of roasted beetroot, crunchy radishes and black beluga lentils, makes the perfect vegan starter, drizzled with a coconut yoghurt and dill sauce. Beetroot is an excellent source of iron and folic acid.

5. Parsnip kale and kidney bean hotpot

  Parsnip, kale & kidney bean hotpot
Serve up our protein-packed parsnip, kale and kidney bean hotpot as a vegan main. This delicious dish is layered with sweet roasted parsnip crisps and drizzled with a homemade parsley pesto, for a boost of vitamin C.

6.Chocolate avocado mousse

Avocado and Chocolate Mousse

To finish, this rich and creamy chocolate avocado mousse is made only with coconut milk, avocado and raw cacao and a drizzle of maple syrup. It tastes so indulgent but contains only ingredients that are really good for you, gluten-free and vegan. We serve ours with coconut yoghurt and berries!
