It's the second recipe from this link. I'd forgotten it was an Ottolenghi recipe as I rarely do them (due to the faff that is usually involved) and had torn the recipe out to keep. Thanks for spotting that @ppeatfruit as that helped me find it! Obviously I just swapped the yogurt for dairy free.

B. ground walnuts/pumpkin\linseeds lemon and pear smoothie
L. Ryvitas pnut butter and salad.
S. We had our local 'good' restaurant delivery meal to support them, it was a good night to choose as we celebrated Biden's Success with a glass of champagne! Well I had a sip (I don't really like it ) dh does I had to sort out all the veg, there were lots of seasonal ones; on a bed of spelt grains. Probably with some dairy in the sauce but I can't be too fussy with them , they're very sweet and do me special dishes!
