Sweet and sour chicken

Sweet and sour chicken
EASY
LUNCH, DINNER
Prep & Cook time 25 mins

Sweet & sour chicken (or Pork) is a great way to combine veg, fruit, protein and carbs. I serve it with rice or egg noodles.  My daughter is not crazy about bean sprouts but I love them and she always is willing to try them. It´s also nice to put bamboo shoots which are rich in nutrients you can buy these in a jar or tin.  It´s a really quick dish and with the vitamin A & C from the pineapple and also vitamin C from the orange juice it´s perfect for the whole family.  Don´t be afraid to cook the veg quick in this recipe - more nutrients and nice and crunchy.

Pita pockets

Wholemeal Pitta bread with cumin chicken and yogurt dressing.
EASY
LUNCH, DINNER

Prep & Cooking time 20 minutes











Pita breads are so versatile. It´s also a lot more fun for kids to explore new foods and prepare there own pitta pocket.  I buy wholemeal pitta breads, look for ones that don´t contain E numbers. We use pita breads for dipping, toasting and pockets. This recipe we all love in our family, everyone fills their own pitta at the table.
