English term or phrase: *name of a dish*
Hi!

Katta is looking for the name of a dish that gives you energy. All the ingredients give you power and are good for your heart and blood pressure.
A dish with the effect of popeyes spinach. A real power dish - so to speak.

Many thanks!

Selected answer:personal power platter / personal pep platter / personal energizer
Explanation:
There is a phrase "pepper upper" but it is dominated by "Dr. Pepper" soda. I understand that this dish varies from person to person, according to their energy needs.

(your) heart's content


Explanation:
"Heart's content" - or perhaps "Your heart's content" if you would like to emphasize the idea of it being a personalised dish

Quite literally, eating what you want (you choose the ingredients if I've understood correctly), until your heart is content, happy and healthy.

http://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/hearts-content.html
To one's (or your) heart's content means to one's complete inner satisfaction - until one's heart is content.

Hearty Choice


Explanation:
Just a first idea that comes to mind. It might work, unless someone else is already using it... It has reference to the main theme while also suggesting that the customer is free to select the ingredients.

Sorry Chris, I based my suggestion on the added explanation in the discussion field which has been removed by now.
