See so many people reducing carbs that I feel we need a thread for those of us who love them! I am looking at this as part of an over all healthy diet, not weight loss related.
This week I have enjoyed a few tasty recipes:
Slightly baked baby potatoes with a bit of oil and seasoning, with baked mushrooms, petit pois, rocket and ham, mixed together with fresh basil and a tbs of homemade pesto.
This was so quick to knock up (soften spuds in microwave for 3 mins first), and so tasty!
Cold wholegrain penne pasta with red and yellow pepper, spinach, basil, onion and pine nuts. Can add pesto or other dressing and perhaps a sprinkling of feta cheese to serve.
Wholegrain rice with peppers, mushroom, broccoli, courgettes and feta - add some chilli flakes and garlic, toss together and eat alone or with some sardines.
Mackerel with sticky rice (treat), sesame seeds, brussel sprouts and peas, maybe a few sprigs of tenderstem. Add a dash of ginger or soy sauce.
Minty baby potatoes with feta and mediterranean veggies, baked sliced chicken breast and your preferred dressing.
Wholemeal roll or sourdough toastie with tuna and jarlsberg (or cream cheese if you prefer) with added sliced mushrooms, rocket, cucumber and lemon, pepper.
Tomato/Lentil and veg soup with a sprinkle of cranberry wensleydale, a side pot of tuna with sautéed padron peppers.
Any of your favourites to share?
