A vibrant and nutrient dense dinner providing a balance of vegetables and protein promoting skin repair and immune function (serves one).

Ingredients:

• 1 red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 carrot, julienned
• 1 tsp turmeric
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 100g tofu, sliced
• 100g broccoli

Instructions:

1. Slice the red bell pepper and carrot into thin strips. Cut the broccoli into small florets.
2. In a large pan or wok, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
3. Add the broccoli, red bell pepper, and carrot to the pan. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
4. Sprinkle turmeric and black pepper over the vegetables and stir to combine, allowing the spices to coat the veggies evenly. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
5. If using, add the tofu or chicken to the pan and cook until the protein is heated through and tender (about 5-7 minutes).
6. Once everything is cooked, serve the stir-fry warm with a side of quinoa or brown rice for a complete, nutritious meal.
