Recreation of ‘Baked Beans’

Green peas are much more nutritious and full of vitamin K, fiber and antioxidants and are very affordable. This makes a great side dish with lunch or dinner.

Nachos

Posted on November 4th, 2016

Nachos are often considered an unhealthy meal due to the amount of added salt and sugar through the use of processed sauces, the amount of cheese, guacamole and corn chops that they are served with.

Posted on November 4th, 2016

Spaghetti bolognaise is often associated with heaps of pasta and a very rich tomato based sauce often full of salt and sugar. I have created this version to include lots of vegetables, lentils, fresh tomatoes and tomato paste to keep it healthy and filling. Lentils are great for bulking up the dish to make it last longer as well as providing a vegetarian source of protein. It is recommended that you use a wholemeal spaghetti to gain the most nutritional benefit or using a gluten free option that is based on buckwheat or brown rice to keep this meal healthy.
