Healthy version of a Hobbit feast


It seems I have plenty of time on my hands? I am a Lord of the rings fan and today I am celebrating Hobbit day. I have adapted the hobbit foods to fit into a healthier version of 'second breakfast'.



Ingredients:

For the salad, combine:
2 Adelaide tomatoes, sliced
1 bunch of mixed salad (spinach, lettuce, radicchio)
2 tablespoons italian dressing

 For the soup:
2 carrots, chopped fine
2 medium potatoes chopped
1 onion chopped
2 tablespoons Massel chicken stock powder

Boil ingredients in 1-1.5 litres of water. for 20mins Add a pinch of salt, pepper and Massel chicken stock to taste

For the bread: 
2-4 slices of toasted gluten free bread
You can choose butter or hummus as a spread. Olive oil as a dip is also a healthier option.

Stir fry mushrooms:
1 flat mushroom, sliced
8-9 white button mushrooms, sliced
4 cloves minced garlic

In a heated pan, add rice bran oil and stir fry minced garlic. Add mushrooms and cook on medium heat for 10-15mins.

Hobbit corn:
2 ears of corn with husks and leaves intact
Remove one side of the leaves and give the corn a brief rinse
Steam for 15-20mins.

For the drinks:
1 cup seedless grapes
1 apple, sliced
250ml water

Blend on high in a blender. Serves 2 cups.

Happy Hobbit Day!
