This summer, Rituals is focusing on kindness. Kindness for yourself, for others and for the world around you. One way to be kind to yourself is with feel-good food. Now, that doesn’t mean junk food (although a treat every now and again does us all good!) but tasty food that is nutritious and feeds your soul just as much as it does your body. With that in mind, sit down, unwind, and enjoy this delicious, comforting meal. The spicy tempeh burger is perfect for a Friday feel-good food night!
