  • delicious served on rye or wholewheat bread – lightly spread hummus or basil pesto onto bread then add roast veg – top with rocket.
  • served on it’s own with a sprinkling of feta – place under grill or in microwave until feta starts to melt.

Recipe:

  • Onions
  • Garlic cloves
  • Cherry tomotoes or tomatoes on the vine
  • Baby marrows
  • Red peppers
  • Yellow peppers
  • Aubergine
  • Mushrooms

Preheat oven to 200 degrees C or 475 degrees F.

Spray roasting dish with non-stick cooking spray.

Cut up vegetables into bite size pieces.

Sprinkle with salt, pepper, herbs (origanium, basil, rosemary or mixed herb) and drizzle with olive oil (optional)

Arrange evenly in a large roasting pan.

Roast for 40 – 45 mins (turn after 20 mins) or until vegetables are nicely browned and serve.

Bon Appetite!

 Time Saving Tips- For Quick, Easy, Healthy Meals!

 

Draw up a menu plan for the week

·        Include breakfast, lunch and dinner – this allows you to plan your shopping for the week. Saves you going to the shops on a daily basis.

 

Make a shopping list

·        Buy food for 3-4 days – planning means you only shop twice a week.

 

Buy on-line from supermarkets – (some deliver to your home)

·        Woolworths

·        Pick ‘n Pay

 

Make double or 3 times the quantity of a recipe when cooking

·        The time it takes to make one meal is same as time it takes if you double up or use triple the ingredients.  Freeze one or two meals so that occasionally all you’ll have to do is defrost a meal. Use the time you would have spent cooking to pamper yourself or spend quality time with friends or family.

 

Buy ready made food

·        Supermarkets stock a range of healthy  (low fat) meals.

·        Soraya Diesel of Brinjal Catering (Cape Town) – offers a fantastic service where she comes to your home to provide personal meal preparation, see her newsletter for more information

Teach your family how to cook
