Rainbow Crudité with Feta & Herb Dip
There’s nothing like a vibrant rainbow bowl of crudités to brighten up a table—and nourish your body from the inside out. This colourful platter isn’t just beautiful, it’s brimming with nutritional power: rich in gut-loving fibre, antioxidant-packed polyphenols, and carotenoids that support skin, eye, and immune health.
Each vegetable brings its own benefits—juicy cherry tomatoes are loaded with lycopene, a powerful antioxidant linked to heart health and reduced inflammation.
Asparagus offers a natural prebiotic boost, supporting digestion and detoxification. Cruciferous heroes like tenderstem broccoli are rich in compounds that help balance hormones and support liver function.
Add in bitter leaves like chicory and radishes to stimulate digestion, and you’ve got a bowl that does more than satisfy your tastebuds.
Served with a creamy, herby feta and Greek yoghurt dip—full of protein, calcium, and healthy fats—this is a delicious, vibrant way to eat the rainbow and support whole-body health.
Ideal as a snack platter, a starter, or a light lunch, this bowl is proof that eating the rainbow really is one of the simplest, most delicious ways to eat well.
