Thinking about healthy lunch? Let's have Kale salad with barley

in #health7 years ago (edited)

My second half asked me for a prepare something healthy for a lunch
Then I was thinking what kind of lunch could be healthy for me but also won't be hungry an hour later
And then I got it...Vegetables and carbs together - vegetables for your health and carbs for full feel stomach

So we're gonna need:

  • Kale - full of very different nutrients such as vitamin K,A,C, manganese, copper
  • Barley - whole grain -it means good carbs what fill you for few hours
  • Tomato - lutein, betacarotene, lycopene (protects body against cancer)
  • Bell Pepper - Vitamin A, C and B6
  • Cucumber - Vitamin A,C and folic acid
  • Lemons - Great for your digestive, balance body PH and of course rich of vitamin C
  • Parsley - vitamin K, C, A, folate and iron
