About Mindful Chef
The weekly menu
There are 28 recipes to pick from each week, every one free from gluten. Dairy-free and plant-based choices are included. Past dishes include a Chermoula Chickpea Stew and a Chickpea Goan Curry. Breakfasts, snacks and drinks can be added to the same box, so one delivery can cover more than dinner.
