If you want a healthy dinner recipe that would not add to your weight, here’s what I have for you from my long-lost healthy-eating secret book. A recipe that requires one herb, 1 tbsp olive oil and just 1/2 cup rice, not to mention only 15 min of your time. If you, like me, move homes, go places and want to do more with your time – I am telling you, you’ll find this recipe to be more than jut healthy. It’s quick, delicious and almost comforting without the calories. That’s what our March is all about! Healthy, easy cooking!
