Thrive on Five was founded by sisters Nina and Jo Littler, who were joined by their good friend Randi Glenn. They all wanted to include more vegetables in our diets, but none of them had the time, or the inclination, to prepare them with every meal. So they started to look for ways to make it easier. They soon discovered, by adapting their favourite dishes, that it was actually possible to get all five portions into one dish. The five-a-day meal was born. The five-a-day meal had plenty of sceptics but, while trialling the dishes among family, friends and colleagues, Thrive on Five has realised how even the die-hard meat eaters have embraced the concept! They are just starting a business providing five-a-day meals to businesses and independent customers, first in London, but with the aim of rolling out nationwide.

Making these dishes taste as good as their meat equivalents was the key to ensuring even committed carnivores embraced the concept. The girls have built a sizeable following in London, and they ultimately aim to roll out the concept nationwide.
