From a classic old world vegetable soup to a sensational shakshuka, our vegetable lunch dishes unleash a world of possibilities! Packed full of poblano peppers in a spicy Mexican tomato sauce, chiles rellenos are a crispy crunchy classic, and if you’re looking for winter warmers, try a silky-smooth spiced butternut squash soup, or a chunky chickpea and artichoke masala. Light bites include Szechuan noodles, or a tomato and basil tarte tatin, and don't forget falafel sandwiches with sesame mint yoghurt sauce and veggies for a quick ‘n’ easy midday meal.
