Bought my favourite noodles, chicken breast, cherry tomatoes, and baby spinach on sale. My dinner tonight is noodles as it’s pouring heavy rain. Needed soup meal.
“Chicken breast is a lean, high-protein meat known for its nutritional benefits, supporting muscle growth and weight management, while providing essential B vitamins, phosphorus, and selenium for energy production, immune function, and bone health. It helps control appetite due to its high protein content, making it a heart-healthy choice compared to red meat. Versatile in cooking, it fits well into various diets, including low-carbohydrate and high-protein plans.”
“Cherry tomatoes are a small, sweet, and juicy variety of tomato that are rich in vitamins, antioxidants like lycopene, and minerals. They offer health benefits such as supporting immune function, promoting eye health, reducing inflammation, and potentially protecting against chronic diseases like heart disease and cancer. They are a low-calorie, low-fat, and nutritious addition to a variety of dishes, including salads, pastas, and snacks. The high Vitamin C content helps maintain a strong immune system. The antioxidants lycopene, lutein, and beta-carotene can help protect against age-related macular degeneration and other eye diseases. The antioxidants in cherry tomatoes can help protect against heart disease and may play a role in cancer prevention. “
“Baby spinach is a nutrient-dense leafy green rich in vitamins A, C, and K, iron, and antioxidants, offering benefits for eye and bone health, blood pressure reduction, and immune function. It also aids in healthy skin and hair, improves iron absorption, and supports digestion, while containing lutein and zeaxanthin to protect against age-related vision issues.”
My simple dinner is comforting, colourful, healthy and delicious. Let’s cook!!!
