This evening, I was inspired to make the following dish, after having watched my friend Chef AJ’s latest show, which I’ll post for you at the end. Here’s what’s for dinner at my house. This is such an easy recipe – so there are no excuses for not eating a healthy meal! Plus, I made enough for a family of six people – this way I will have leftovers for lunch & dinner! I may have to invite a few neighbors over to eat! Just sayin’!

As you can see this is so easy peasy that there should be no excuses for why not to cook at home! Last week, I was exhausted from a long day of working on some projects. I didn’t feel like going out and I was craving something substantial, so I went through my fridge and cupboards and came up with this dish
Veggie Pasta al dente

Half a pack of Organic pasta
Head of broccoli washed and cut
1 Red Bell Pepper
1 Tbsp Sesame Oil
2 Cups of mushrooms
2 Rainbow Carrots – optional
Garlic – as much as you desire

Instructions
-
Boil water and cook the pasta in a large pot – follow instructions on the pack.

Voilà, dinner is ready!
