Broccoli stir fry


#chillingoutside#winterstarter#

Most of my friends are non vegetarians and would wonder and ask what you all vegetarians eat in your lunch and dinner?

Sometimes it's really difficult to tell but I feel less confused in winters as there are lot of seasonal veggies available in market. Today I prepared broccoli stir fry tossed in chilli sauce with fresh broccoli, peas, capsicum, carrot and potato(new),seasoned with black pepper powder, oregano and creamy cheese.

Broccoli is a food with many health benefits and great taste , while low in calories, it is rich in mineral and vitamins, in addition to fibre. And it's very good for kids too.
