A Spoonful of Health: Healthy carrot snack

Ok, I need to start somehow…Of course it's all about diet, or mostly about healthy and calorie less food. I like to share own created recipes, giving ideas for low calorie and mostly vegetarian foods. I am going to post my daily dishes, describing how I made them, how may calories they are and something about the budget.

That blog is a non-official site for everybody who try to change to a healthier, but not distressed lifestyle.

A bit more about me: I am pretty picky on food, I don't really like meat, but I like sweets and like drinking nice beer, ale or wine. I really like all vegetables and always tried to make sure, that my food is as healthy as possible. And I know, my huge enemy are carbohydrates - such an ordinary woman…:)

So compare to all of that I keep an eye on my daily calories and exercises. I am using an application for counting calories (1200\day) and my own rules are: eating fruits till midday - nothing else, not eating any bread, pasta, pizza, etc (all good stuff:)) and avoiding sugar.

So if you still interested, follow my recipes and don't be shy to share yours, or comment on my notes.

Healthy carrot snack

Last evening I was sure, that I have to work at home, edit a short film and need to be awake until late. I was thinking what kind of food I should make to survive the night without munching lot of calories...decided to use just vegetables and I had a half of avocado at home...
...So I made carrot-aspargus-pepper snack and made an avocado-yoghurt dip. That filled me for dinner and has covered my hunger for snack while I was working.

Calories 300ish
Time: 15 minutes, Budget: £3-4

You need:
californian paprika
100 g chopped baby carrot
100 g aspargus
half white onion
drops of olive oil
100 g fat free yoghurt
half small avocado
garlic

In a pan heat the olive oil and add the chopped onion. Add the carrot, asparagus and the paprika at least. Fry them until you find the carrot enough soft - the others getting soft sooner. Add a dash of water, it helps.
While you boil and fry the vegetables, in a small bowl mix the avocado with the yoghurt with a fork and add some garlic. (Depends on how you like it.) I think no more description needed...:) You made your daily spoonful of health.
