I am not a big fan of veg but am trying to introduce some...?

Do these meals sound (fairly) healthy to you guys?



*Chicken (cooked in a little oil in a wok) with noodles, mushrooms, peppers and soy sauce

*fish with jacket potato and corn on the cob

*pork loin with potato wedges and peas, corn and carrot

*jacket potato and cheese with green salad



I know there is not much veg, but its not a bad start right?



And how healthy/unhealthy do you think the meals themselves are? (I tried all these meal ideas last week and loved them all)I am not a big fan of veg but am trying to introduce some...?
Its a good start but when you fry vegetables you just introduce fat and kill most of the nutrients in them try to steam the vegetables first and then add them on the noddles then you wont really have to fry them...same with any other veggies just put them in a plastic bag and pop them in the microwave...then you should be ok.



also try to introduce fruit more then u don't have to eat as much veggies as u can get the same nutrients from fruit as u can in veg.



Potassium is important for the body, its the positively charged electrolyte in body cells. It helps maintain the normal functioning of the heart, brain, kidney and muscles. but too much of anything is bad just need to have it in ideal proportions and well its hard to really overdose in potassium anyway unless you eat like 50 bananas a day so its nothing to worry about, a banana a day should be good enough.



hope that helps.I am not a big fan of veg but am trying to introduce some...?
it's healthy but it all depends on how you prepare them and maybe take out some of the potatoes it has a lot of starch and potassium in it
I am a vegetarian myself and my favorite of what you mentioned was the first one minus the chicken. Mushrooms, peppers, onions, celery, spinach, tomatoes, potatoes, carrots and honestly any vegetables cooked with a little soy sauce and mixed with either rice or pasta. I consider if very healthy and the other things you mentioned sounded good as well. Just remember you really don't need much oil to cook these things in and soy sauce contains a lot of salt so be careful not to overdo it.

Hope this helps :)
try to get some more green veggies in there.
