Healthy, because
Whole wheat noodles contain plenty of fiber, which makes you feel full for a long time and stimulates digestion. Cauliflower and parsley score high on vitamin C.
Even smarter
For even more vital substances, serve a green salad with a dressing of native vegetable oil, for example rapeseed oil or linseed oil.
