Ready in 25min

Preparation 15min

Ingredients

  • 1 x sweet potato
  • 1/2 Broccoli
  • 1 x tsp olive oil
  • 1 x tsp Italian herbs (or of your liking)
  • 1 x crushed garlic clove
  • 4 x eggs
  • 1 x packet of unsalted almonds
  • 1 x roasted chick pea
  • 1 x unsalted cashews
  • 1/4 cup of Goji berries

Preparation

VEGGIES

1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees

2. Slice sweet potato into chips, slice up broccoli

3. Drizzle oil over veg and add garlic and herbs

4. Place in oven, roast broccoli for about 15 minutes and sweet potato for about 25 minutes (cook sweet potato longer if you want them a bit crispy!)  

5. Divide veggies into 2 serves

 

EGGS

1. Fill saucepan with cold water & add the eggs, once water is boiling time them for 8-9 minutes

2. Drain the eggs under cold water and set aside to cook

3. Once cool, peel the eggs then place in a container and ready to go.

 

NUTTY GOODNESS

1. Arrange the nuts and berries into separate containers or lock zip bag and it’s ready to go. You could do small groupings of about 6 or so of the nuts and chickpeas, also add just a few Goji berries to each mix. 

 

Tips

1. Mix and match with the nuts but don’t over eat, they are a healthy fat but consuming too many nuts in one sitting, might not be ideal if you are trying to watch your calorie intake.

2. If I have a busy week ahead, I will do my prep all in one day and have them all ready in containers to take (best doing this on your day off).

3. Can boil your eggs longer or less depending how you like them

4. You can also cut up other roast veggies of your choosing (variety is a great thing right!)

5. Another snack I do often are 3 x celery stalks with almond butter spread (only from health section; check ingredients should only be almonds nothing else!!) and I’ll also do 2 x carrots washed and sliced

6. I don’t peel my carrots as a lot of the nutrients are in the skin just be sure to wash them first!
