I have a few up my sleeve that is surprisingly healthy. With that being said, I am not saying they will apply easily to Weight Watchers or whatnot. Instead, it is about how many types of vegetables are thrown in there and ultimately plump the meal and creates a bit of freshness.
Gumbo (jambalaya, etouffee, or a cassoulet): onion, celery, capsicum, corn.
Shepherd’s Pie (…..fine! It’s more cottage pie that I do, being beef and whatno): sweet potato, onion, carrot, peas, corn (that last one especially for a Quebec style spin).
Scottish Beef Stew: onions, sweet potato, carrot, swede, leek. How I managed to fit everything into my slow cooker when I did the recipe, I will never know.
Firecracker Chicken: onion, capsicum, snow peas. If you look at this, then the sauce recipe it will make sense.
Chilli (in general): onion, capsicum, corn, and (although they are not vegetables) lots of beans. Other recipes call for carrots, and celery.
Of course, most recipes can be spruced up with a mere cup or two of frozen mixed vegetables. Plus, tomato does feature frequently in the cooking I do. That just shows how easy and cheap making something that bit healthier really can be.
Thanks, Mikey. These are all fantastic ideas and extra vegetables are always a welcome addition.
