Duck and grain salad recipe
This indulgent, yet easy lunch will be the envy of the office. Rich hoisin duck is tossed with Thai-inspired grains, avocado, baby spinach and Tenderstem broccoli tips. By keeping the sauce to the side and tossing together at the last minute, it keeps the salad fresh and crunchy. This recipe uses half of the ready-prepared grains and duck to make one lunch serving, so you can save the rest for another day or double up to serve two.

- Simmer the Tenderstem broccoli tips in boiling water for 3 mins. Drain and tip into a bowl with the Thai-inspired grains, duck (from half the kit), baby spinach and pomegranate seeds. Transfer to a lunchbox.
- Cut the avocado into chunks, cover in half of the lime juice then add to the lunchbox.
- Heat the seed mix, cayenne pepper and soy sauce for 1 min in a frying pan, cool and put in a small snack bag.
- Mix half the hoisin sauce (from half the kit) with the remaining lime juice and sesame oil; put in a lidded container. To serve, mix the grains, dressing and seeds.
- Cook's tip: If you like, take an orange for a snack. Peel and segment the orange into a separate container, so there's no messy peeling at your desk.
