Roasted Vegetables, Cous Cous Salad and Black Bean Noodles



Today's meal idea is one of my favourites. I love mixing different foods and flavours in a fusion of taste. It allows you to get many different flavours along with the combination of a variety of nutrients. 

This meal is so simple. I roasted some sweet potato which I had cubed, sprayed with fry light and added paprika to. I then roast them in the oven for half an hour or until soft. 

The couscous salad is a simple mix of wholemeal couscous cooked and them mixed with chopped spinach and any spices such as mixed herbs and basil. 

I also roasted some peppers, mushrooms and celery again sprayed with fry light and covered in mixed herbs. 

I also cooked black bean noodles (which are high in protein and a great alternative to pasta) and mixed them with some passata sauce and topped with fried red onion. 

This might seem like a lot of food but it is mainly vegetables with some healthy grains and noodles. However it is a delicious mixture and interesting combination of flavours. Most importantly it is filling, inexpensive and full of protein, vitamins and minerals. This is a great family meal as there is something for everyone and lots of choice. Each part of the meal is also quick to prepare so it is easy to get everything ready at once. 

Hopefully this meal idea will give you some ideas for your next healthy, vegan meal.
