A spoonful of one of these ‘diversity jars’ is an easy way to add more plants to your day. Packed with nuts, seeds and flavour-boosting extras, they’re great sprinkled over everything from porridge, yogurt or smoothie bowls to soups and curries. Make a batch at the start of the week and keep it on hand for a simple plant diversity boost at every meal. 1 serving is 1 tbsp.
