Community of healthy eaters: I made a recipe today I’d like to share with you.
The recipes here in the blog sections are super easy to make and healthy to eat.
I hope it gives you a change in your cooking routine.
It always makes me happy if I cook something I’ve never done before or try it a different way.
I'll explain you here what makes the dish healthy and satisfying:
The sweet potatoes are rich in fibers and healthy nutrients. You won’t crave sugar or other processed carbohydrates that much afterwards. It's a natural food and simmered in a bit of water is the healthiest way to prepare the sweet potatoes.
Leek is high in vitamin C and gives the dish the flavor. The same will do onions or garlic.
The asparagus contain fibers, minerals and vitamins and help cleanse the liver.
The black beans make sure you get your proteins needed and are a good source of iron.
