it's time for this mama to start eating better. not that i eat BAD (all the time...) but i have got the point where i need to be more thoughtful about the food i put in this body of mine.
i have been feeling sluggish, meh...just lacking that energy to pump you through the day.
the thing is i have so much knowledge of food and what it can do for you, thanks to being raised by a mama that has taught me nutrition well.
i think to keep myself accountable i shall share what i make on this little space of mine. and perhaps it might be of interest to ya'll. i make most of my dinner 'recipes' up. i.e....what is lurking in the fridge.
so without further a-dew...
last nights dinner.
drum roll please.
roasted kumara, chickpeas, spinach, red onions.
sauteed with garlic and cumin seeds.
i served it up with a big squeeeeeeze of lemon and greek yogurt.
DAAAYUM. it was good.
and then.....today for lunch. i honestly didn't take long to get together.
a minestrone soup.
i just cut up int 1cm-ish dice some vege-aroonies.
mushrooms
celery
carrots
kumara
spring onions.
sauteed those puppies off in some olive oil.
added a load of garlic.
no vampires, cold and flu's or men will come near me!
S&Pep.
theeeeen, i added a tin of chopped tomatoes in juice.
and 2 cups of chicken stock.
and let that cook for a while, and then add a handful of pasta.
taa-daaa.
vege-alicious.
i topped it with a handful of spinach, a dollop of sour cream, shaved parmesan and spring onions.
cracked black pepper.
again. so good.
i may have two hug helpings of this.
and i may feeling like a stuffed thing right now.
at least i know it's all good.
i'm sure my body will thank me for this.
love to hear your go-to body-feel-good foods.
share share share.
it is good to share.
peace.
