  1. SPICED BARLEY

    Preheat the oven to 220°C. Place the rinsed barley in a pot with ½ the NOMU rub and 400ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until al dente, 25-30 minutes (stirring occasionally). Drain and cover.

  2. BEETS & BROC

    Spread out the Beetroot pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, the remaining NOMU rub, and seasoning. Roast in the oven, 30-35 minutes (shifting halfway). Place the broccoli pieces and drained lentils in a bowl, coat in oil and seasoning, and set aside.

  3. SEEDS & DRIZZLE

    Place the pumpkin seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside. In a small bowl, combine the cashew cream cheese with the pomegranate dressing (to taste). Season and set aside.

  4. WHOLESOME VEG

    When the Beetroot has been in for 10-15 minutes, remove from the oven and shift to one side of the tray. Place the broccoli pieces and lentils on the other side, in a single layer, and return to the oven for the remaining cooking time.

  5. APRICOT & BARLEY

    In a bowl, toss the cooked barley with ½ the chopped apricots, and seasoning.

  6. GET STUCK IN!

    Bowl up the barley next to the rinsed green leaves. Side with the roast veg and drizzle over the creamy dressing. Garnish with the toasted pumpkin seeds and the remaining apricots. Either toss it all together, or serve as is – “Buddha bowl” style. Yum!
