My Spaghetti Vegetable Medley

I do love experimenting with foods, but when it comes to vegetables, I always stay safe. I, however, moved further down the vegetable path and came up with this recipe. Don’t get me wrong, I love vegetables and I find them interesting, but, combining vegetables or incorporating into a meal is usually a problem for me.

This recipe is simple just like my other recipes, it is easily adaptable. The recipe is suitable for vegan and vegetarian as it contains no meat. The vegetables I used are hand-picked and fresh for the purpose I used them for.

Good food should not be complicated. Buy fresh vegetables and experiment with them. You can use couscous, rice, bulgur instead of spaghetti. The recipe works well with anything. (more…)

Why not try this healthy spaghetti with grilled mackerel for a change? It is easy to make and takes about 45  minutes to sort out.Personally, food meant more than just eating, it is a way of nourishing my body and taking care of its metabolism. What is the point of eating if it does nothing to the body? Food is to the body like breath is to life.

It is very rich in omega-3 fatty acids.It also contains the type of fat that is beneficial to our body called monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids. Wholemeal spaghetti is the type of pasta that I used, you can choose any pasta of your choice. However, I think it is important to know that wholemeal pasta is high in vitamin B, minerals such as manganese, selenium and magnesium. It is filling compared to refined pasta and it supplies the body’s need by slowly releasing energy.  It contains high nutritional benefits naturally, unlike refined pasta which is enriched with vitamins. The wholemeal food contains the body’s need naturally with fewer fortifications.
