A couple of times a week we give our clients their carbs at lunchtime instead of dinner and this recipe does carbs at lunch really deliciously.
You can easily take it to work with you. Adding chicken or prawns will help to keep you fuller for longer.
For the sauce:
For the salad:
Cook the noodles briefly in boiling water, or buy ready-cooked.
Combine the dressing ingredients using a small whisk or a fork.
Stir the dressing into the noodles.
Arrange all the other ingredients in a bowl.
Add the noodles.
Enjoy!
Loads going on here in terms of fibre and antioxidants but let’s focus on nuts for a minute.
Most people don’t eat enough nuts and seeds and yet they are incredibly nutritious foods. peanuts in particular are a fantastic source of copper; copper helps to make strong connective tissue and strong bones and blood vessels. Having strong blood vessels is critical for health and longevity, anything we can do to stop vessels rupturing is a great thing. Copper also helps us to extract energy from carbohydrate foods (let me just remind you that carbs are excellent, we love healthy wholegrain carbs and so does your body!)
Peanuts are also a rich source of manganese which also helps with having fantastic bones and skin as well as helping to control blood sugar. And in these days of diabetes epidemics that’s a huge bonus!
Nuts for the win!
