Got leftover uncooked daikon, bought roasted chicken wing and some baby spinach. Felt like having Shin ram yun noodles soup. This is my quick and lazy meal.

“Daikon, or Japanese radish, is a low-calorie, high-fiber root vegetable that aids digestion, supports the immune system, and promotes healthy skin. Rich in Vitamin C, potassium, and folate, it contains digestive enzymes and antioxidants, contributing to overall health. Additionally, it may help with respiratory issues, reduce heart disease risk, and is beneficial for pregnant women due to its folate content.”

“Roasted chicken wings are a nutritious protein source, offering muscle repair and essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins, especially when prepared in healthier ways such as baking or air-frying. They support muscle building, appetite control, and metabolism, with around 30g of protein per serving and are beneficial for various diets due to their low-carb content. Additionally, they provide heart-healthy fats and nutrients that promote energy, immunity, and bone health.”

“Baby spinach is a nutrient-rich, young variety of spinach that is sweeter and less bitter than mature spinach. It can be enjoyed raw in salads or cooked, providing vitamins A and K, iron, and folate. High in antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin, it supports eye health, while nitrates may help lower blood pressure, reducing heart disease risk. Its antioxidants also fight free radicals, potentially lowering chronic disease risk and improving brain health, all while being low in calories, aiding in weight management. People prone to kidney stones should moderate intake due to oxalate content.”

My meal is spicy, colourful, healthy and delicious. Let’s cook!!!
