Food Glorious Food!

One area I never fall off the bandwagon with is making sure every day is rich in fresh organic unprocessed food. I was very sick many years ago and initially healed through detox and an overhaul in my nutrition. And taking a break.

So, quality healthy pure food is top of the priority list. And where there's priority, there's always time. Saying that though, I know cooking healthy meals is a time issue for many.

This meal is a 15-minute dinner, start to finish!

METHOD:

1. Chop vegetables to your desired liking and use the amounts you’d like for yourself for a meal.

2. Put a pot of water on to boil, add brown rice Penne to cook for 10-minutes.

3. While the pasta is boiling, put carrot and cauliflower on to steam first for 5-minutes. After 5-minutes add the broccoli and courgette to the carrots and cauliflower. Turn off after another 5-minutes. Total steaming time is 10-minutes.
