Healthy, because
Thanks to the fibre it contains, wholemeal pasta is long lasting and stimulates digestion. Cauliflower and parsley provide us with plenty of vitamin C, which is important for an intact immune system.
Even smarter
For vegetarian enjoyment, you can replace the fish with fried tofu cubes or feta cheese, for example.
