1. 1

   Prep everything first: wash and trim the spinach and cherry tomatoes, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

2. 2

   Cook the wholewheat pasta in salted boiling water for 10-12 minutes until al dente; save a splash of pasta water.

3. 3

   Slice the seitan thinly and stir-fry over high heat for 4-5 minutes until browned.

4. 4

   Stir the pesto through the hot carbs with a splash of cooking water so it turns glossy, then top with grated parmesan.

5. 5

   Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the spinach and cherry tomatoes for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

6. 6

   Build the bowl: wholewheat pasta first, then the veg and seitan, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the rocket.

7. 7

   Bulking upgrade: add the pesto, almonds for extra energy-dense calories.
