Tonight for dinner I made some basic pasta with tomato sauce.
I topped the pasta with broccoli and a few leftover falafels to act as “meatballs”.
As a side I baked green beans with sliced onions and minced garlic in olive oil (for a kick of vitamin E). Once they were done baking I mixed in some toasted pine nuts and pear infused balsalmic vinegar for extra flavor! It was quick and delicious!
