“The combination of pressure cooked skinless lentils (dal) packed full of protein, B1, B6, folate, iron and many other micronutrients. Fibre that brooms the gut, antioxidants from seasonal local organic veggies, immune boosting lauric acid in the organic coconut oil and some have MCT’s (medium chain triglycerides) in the organic coconut cream.

Darlin’ Dal is an incredibly nutrient rich vegan meal. Combine it with a grain or seed, and you have a complete vegetarian protein, a no-fuss meal that will help balance your mood, control blood sugar and energy levels, and nourish your entire body all year round. Darlin’ Dal is the perfect nutrient-dense 100% plant based meal for anyone wanting to maximise their health and well-being” – Elizabeth Cook Nutritionist (Adv Dip Nutritional Medicine – ATMS 50589)

Dal is a complete and complex form of nutrition, which we amplify with ancient Ayurveda recipes. It is gut-nourishing goodness which can elevate your mood and assist with weight balancing. Using pesticide free pulses that are split and hulled, it is the healthiest food you can consume and very easy to digest. No gluten, no dairy, no soy, no added sugar, no nuts, no corn, no GMO, no pesticides, no hidden nasties.

What’s left? All the good stuff.
