The vegan movement has been enjoying macro bowls for years and now we’ve upgraded it by topping it with duck. Macro bowls combine 2-3 vegetables with a good carb such as quinoa and a protein source (our delicious duck).

Kale, cherry tomatoes, quinoa and red cabbage make a tasty base for leftover roast duck. Alternatively, use sliced duck breast for a nutritious lunch that is a source of all the right kind of nutrients.
