With every new year comes the chance for a fresh start and for many of us that means trying to be a little healthier in our day to day lives. Our waistlines won’t let us get away with eating cronuts and cruffins forever, amiright?

So without further ado, here are 30 of the best clean eats to kick-start 2016.

1. With more clean eats on the menu than dirty eats, pick almost anything at Panache and you’ll be just fine. We quite like the chia seed parfait topped with yoghurt, coconut shreds and nuts.
2. If you’re in the mood for a healthy burger Solomon’s Cafe have you covered with their bio-dynamic beef burger served on grainless toast with tomato relish, cashewed kale and sauerkraut.
3. Get more than your daily dose of greens with Little Bird Cafe’s green brekky bowl Filled to the brim with spinach, snow peas, broccoli, avocado and mushrooms, the bowl is topped with two poached eggs.
4. Want to eat healthy but tired of chewing? Head to The Market Juicery for their Creamy Green smoothie—spinach, avo, banana, celery, mango, cucumber, cinnamon and walnuts blended with the milk of your choice. It’s health in a cup.
5. When Meat Free Monday rolls around, grab a tasty vegan pattie from the folks at Veggie Mama.
6. Addicted to pizza? Quell that addiction with one of the healthy raw pizzas available at Little Shop Of Plenty in Maylands. With a buckwheat, golden flax and veggie base, we like the marinated field muchroom, kale, cashew crème fraiche, lemon thyme and garlic pizza.
