  • Spaghetti Squash Marinara Bar

    A build-your-own plant-based bowl where roasted spaghetti squash meets a chunky mushroom-zucchini marinara, then splits into two paths. The keto side gets a rich walnut-mushroom crumble, briny olives, and hemp hearts for fat and texture without the carbs. The heartier side adds creamy white beans for a satisfying, complete meal. Everyone tops with fresh basil and builds exactly the plate they want.

  • Mediterranean Bowl with Roasted Vegetables

    Vibrant roasted vegetables tossed with za'atar form the heart of this build-your-own bowl.

Every single component is vegan, so everyone at the table can dig in.

  • Zucchini Noodle Pad Thai with Crispy Tofu

    Spiralized zucchini tossed in a bright, tangy tamarind-lime sauce with crunchy bean sprouts, scallions, and crushed peanuts, topped with golden-baked tofu cubes.

The zucchini noodles keep the carbs low, and rice noodles are offered separately for anyone who wants them. No sweetened sauce here, just pure tamarind punch balanced with lime and a hint of heat.

  • Beef Kofta Curry with Cauliflower Rice

    Spiced ground beef meatballs bob in a rich tomato and cumin curry, bright with ginger and warm spices. Ladled over fluffy cauliflower rice, it's comforting and aromatic without being heavy. The kofta stay tender, the sauce clings, and every bite delivers that deep, warming flavour you want when you're properly hungry.

  • Cauliflower Rice Burrito Bowls with Tofu and Avocado

    A vibrant, customizable plant-based bowl that works for everyone at the table. Cilantro-lime cauliflower rice forms the base, topped with golden chili-lime tofu, smoky roasted peppers, creamy guacamole, fresh salsa, and toasted pumpkin seeds. Black beans and corn sit on the side so keto eaters can keep it low-carb while vegan diners load up on the heartier staples. Every component is completely plant-based, and the leftovers hold beautifully for next-day lunches.

  • Shrimp and Zucchini Noodles with Garlic and Chili
