This pasta has a secret ingredient—white beans! But, you’d never know. Our friend, the humble bean, is a bit of a superhero: budget-friendly, protein-rich, and mild-flavoured, it’s worth a shot to sneak it onto any picky eater’s plate. Mash ‘em up “real good” to hide them in the sauce.

Banh mi is a sandwich traditionally grilled meat served in an airy and crispy baguette with pickled veggies, cilantro, and mayonnaise. Inspired by this Vietnamese delight, this bowl is full of smoky BBQ flavour that pairs perfectly with bright, crisp, and fresh veggies. A veggie-forward meal to try on #meatlessmonday!

Save money by making it yourself (less than $5 for 6 cups) and know what is in your food.

Flavoured, cooked cornmeal — delicious warm from the pot, or cooled and grilled as an accompaniment to stews.
