The Food Poem


There are five food groups on the food pyramid

That I should choose from each day.
Vegetables, grain, meat, dairy and fruit
Will help my body work and play.

Healthy body builders will choose carefully
A healthy balance each day.
Eating foods from each category
Will help me live a healthy way.

Healthy One-Dish Meal

Hi again!!

Today, I am going to modify a dish that I have taken over the
3 day diet and make it healthier.



This dish is... Aglio Olio (Ham + Mushroom)!

Well, this dish has carbohydrates, protein, and some fats but it lacks the vegetable component.


Thus, I can make it healthier by adding more vegetables to the dish (Zucchini, Celery and Parsley), which will increase the dietary content of the meal.
Furthermore, the Aglio Olio and its ingredients are boiled using Extra Virgin Olive Oil, where the
original dish made use of vegetable oil, which is more unhealthy. Now the Aglio Olio is a balanced
meal!!

The Healthier Version:



Spaghetti - Wholemeal Carbohydrates
Ham - Meat
Zucchini, Celery, Parsley - Vegetables




= A super healthy meal!!!


That's all for now..
Til next time :D

Patience~
