food, glorious food.

so.
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.
