5 a-day

Following the Health guide lines of eating 5 portions of fruit or vegetables a day, I went on a shopping spree in Morrisons.
I bought:
red peppers,
2x bags of Rocket, Spinach and Red Chard lettuce,
Pomegranate,
Sugar snap peas,
Green beans,
Stir-fry box,
Sweet potatoes,
Sweet corn,

and a few essentials such as:

Sweet chilli sauce,
low-fat salad dressing,
chick peas,
noodles,
Quark.

I already had Brussel sprouts, parsnips and cheese.

For a delicious lunch (after having real porridge for breakfast), I have been having a delicious, crunchy, filling, healthy salad:

Salad leaves, sugar snap peas (snapped in half for that satisfying *pop*), pomegranate seeds, few pieces of cheese, sweet corn, either a dollop of quark or a splash of dressing (or both, mixed together in a cup for a creamy dressing). Yummy.


For dinner last night we had the stir-fry:

Left over sausages were chopped into small pieces then fried in a wok, adding some sweet chilli sauce for a little kick.
When the meat is cooked through, add loads of halved Brussel sprouts, chopped green beans, and the stir-fry box (we used the Chinese style one).
In a small pan, boil some water and put 1 portion of noodles in for 4 minutes until soft.
Keep stirring the stir-try to make sure all the veg is cooked, add some soy sauce to add some salty flavour while cooking.
(This made enough for the two of us for dinner and some left-overs for lunch)

When everything is ready (this meal is so quick and easy), put the noodles in the wok and pull them apart into the vegetables.
Serve into noodle bowls, pour some more sweet chilli sauce over, eat with chop-sticks. Divine.

So there you have it: 4 portions for lunch, 4 portions for dinner. Healthy healthy.
