I am not sure how I suppose to call this meal that’s why the name “healthy rice”. It is for my understanding a vitamin bomb because there are a lot vegetables, you could make it fully vegetarian keeping the sausages out, but I think they give extra taste to the meal. It is easy to make, you get your daily vegetables portion and taste great, what else do you need? (more…)
Sometimes I hear people saying that eat vegetarian is boring, well that’s absolutely not true. I am not vegetarian, I like to eat meat or fish sometimes, but at home we eat for sure a few times a week no meat or fish at all and it is a very colorful and healthy meal then. If you grilled your vegetables they taste fantastic and they are a bomb of vitamins. You can grill I think all vegetables, it is easy and delicious and you can made endless combinations. (more…)
Potatoes is one of those ingredients that you can make in endless ways, boiled in water, fry, baked or mashed. Also it is a great source of vitamins C, B6, potassium, thiamine, riboflavin, folate, magnesium, phosphorous, iron, and zinc. So forget about that myth that potatoes are making you fat, if you cooked them on the right way are perfectly healthy and even healthier if you eat them with the skin, because the skin has the most vitamins.

I love to make my own vegetable bouillon (broth) because every time taste different, it is easy to make, you can freeze in portions and use when you need it and of course it is healthier because you know what is in there, you have put the ingredients, no chemicals are there. This recipe will help you to make the most fantastic broth with a lot of vitamins and more. (more…)
Risotto is per definition one of the favourites at home, with all kind of ingredients, most of the time I make the vegetarian versions some how they are the most creamy. This risotto with mushrooms is from the book Jamie 30 Minutes Meals, it is is just so delicious, quite easy but as all risotto’s impossible in 30 minutes 😉 In the book is a full menu, risotto, salad and dessert, I only made the risotto and part of the salad, no dessert to keep the meal healthy and all took me about 1 hour cooking, but still I love it and I am going to make again, who cares about the time when a meal is good!

Minestrone soup is one of our favorites at home, normally I use a basis with passata, but this version from Nigella from her book “Kitchen” is absolutely delicious. The good thing from such a soup is that you can just change the ingredients with whatever you might have left over in your refrigerator, perfect to avoid food waste. Also is just what I called a vitamin bomb, since you are using a lot of vegetables and soup is one of the healthiest ways to have your vitamin portion for the day. (more…)
At home we are used to eat pasta, most of the time of with mushrooms or minced meat in a good sauce of course, but chicken is something we don’t do much. When I saw this recipe in the book “Jamie 15 Minutes Meals” I thought, that one I need to try and what a fantastic idea that was, a very healthy meal, full with veggies and a bit of chicken, just for the twist.
