Such a crazy combination – I can totally see (or taste) it working!
- Ella Woodward
  
  It works so well! I’m so in love with it. I added half an avocado, pomegranates and pumpkin seeds to it today too and wow was that insane! So so delicious!

This is DELICIOUS! I was genuinely excited last night for left-overs lunch today. Thank you!
- Ella Woodward
  
  Thank you! I totally agree! I always make lots of leftovers of this to see me through a few days of lunches and snacks and no matter how many times I eat it I’m always excited by the though of it!

Wow the lime marinated fennel is so good I almost ate all of it before the rest of the salad ingredients were done! I also poured the marinade into the salad which worked well.
- Ella Woodward
  
  I’m so glad that you loved the fennel! It’s one of my absolute favourite things, I’m so addicted! I bet pouring the marinade over the salad is awesome too, not sure why I didn’t think of that – thank you 🙂

Hi Ella. Is there any other green veggie that I could replace the kale with? (as there is no kale available in Germany – or at least not in my city). I really love your blog and receipes!
- ellawoodward
  
  Hi Bee. It won’t have the same effect but yes you can totally replace it with something like sautéed spinach 🙂

Hi Ella!
Just wanted to let you know you have a new biggest fan! I’ve made this and your portobello-pomegranate-quinoa since discovering your blog and absolutely adored them both! I can’t wait to ake more f your recipes, especially your pecan pie! As a Londoner it’s also lovely to read a British blog as I follow so many Americans! Just one question, what olives did you use here?
Thanks for sharing!

  I’m so glad that you love the blog, thank you! I’m not sure which olives they are, I’ve used all different kinds though and it’s always amazing! These ones I brought at borough market, my favourite place in london! xx

    I love it there too!
    Second question! Where did you get your cast iron pan???

      It’s from Le Creuset 🙂

Hi Ella. 🙂
I’m an 18 year old who lives in Singapore (with Vietnamese origins but born French). I had some health issues that led me to become a vegan and go gluten-free for many months. I eventually stopped because my parents got sick of cooking the same old things over and over again and I just couldn’t find the time since I was in the process of exams when I first started. Since then I’ve been trying to eat more varied food because eating the same healthy thing gets really boring and you just give a twist to everything!
After finding your blog a couple of weeks ago I’ve been inspired to make time to cook for myself, particularly because my father travels a lot.
I just wanted to thank you for all of your delicious and easy to follow recipes that have allowed me to live the healthy and varied menu I’ve been trying to pursue. Despite having some difficulties finding all the ingredients in Singapore I have managed to find some substitutes (if I can’t find pomegranate seeds, I’ll use blueberries instead sometimes).
Just wanted to let you know that you’re appreciated all the way down on this end of the globe too.
Thank you!

  One more thing! Your photos are fantastic and really convinced me to try some of your recipes the first time I stumbled upon your website.

  Thank you so much for your lovely comment Elizabeth! I’m so glad that you’re loving the blog and that it’s insuring you to cook!

I stumbled upon your website by accident. How amazing! I just wish the app was available for versions other than ios 7.
Can’t wait to try the recipes over here in Sunny California! Bravo….

How have I never discovered kale before now?! I am most definitely a convert and this recipe is so tasty. I didn’t have any fennel so I added a few artichokes. Already looking forward to having it for lunch again tomorrow!

hi, what is one cup in grammes?
- ellawoodward
  
  Hi Sarah, so sorry but sadly I don’t have the gram measurements for this recipe but I think you may be able to find the conversion online. Hope you love the recipe! X

Hi great recipe! Quinoa- do you mean 1 cup uncooked or cooked please?
- ellawoodward
  
  This is uncooked quinoa, which you then need to cook with water on the stove. Hope you love the recipe x
