Why you should eat Green Veggies.

We all hear the health gurus preach “Eat your (green) veg”, but have you ever really thought why it’s a good idea to include leafy green veggies in our diet?  Not only is leafy green veg low in calories, it is also majorly beneficial for your overall health. Including greens in your diet lowers your risk of obesity, heart disease, high blood pressure and keeps your mental health in top condition.

All about that Green Veggie Life

If you are minimizing your meat intake and is passionate about eating a plant based diet – this recipe is for you. You can make a whole meal out of this delicious and nourishing Green Veggie Bowl. I included the super power of:

spinach (full of iron, calcium and magnesium),

broccoli (Vit K and C, folic acid and potassium)

peas (dietary fiber, Vitamin A, iron, folate, thiamin, Vit C and manganese)

garlic (lowers cholesterol and is great for gut health)

zucchini (more potassium than bananas) and included fresh herbs like parsley and mint.  

Simply stir fry the ingredients in coconut oil, top with cashew nuts and drizzle with fresh lemon juice and cashews.
