Not sure what to have for DINNER? Why not have something healthy and wake up feeling energised.
Make sure your dinner includes vegetables, protein and low carbohydrate or small portion of carbohydrate.
Food containing protein are egg, chicken,turkey, pulses(beans, peas) I personally eat more poultry but you can get lean meat as well when shopping or take out the fat(the white stripe) before cooking. (this helps reduce the fat content). We need more protein and less fat. Be sure to have more pulses if you are vegetarian or vegan.
-Carbohydrates: potatoes, rice, pasta (plain), yam(small portion), couscous and more.
Try and go for green leafy vegetables such as spinach and you canals have tomatoes and cucumbers. If at all you don't have access to any fresh vegetables, get frozen or canned version.
My simple dinner for today
-Rice with steamed spinach and chicken stew or sauce.
Side dish: cucumber and sweet cherry tomato.
Let me know if you want to try my recipe and i'll make a blog on it.
