  1. Looks very tasty. You could add all sorts of things like pan fried chicken breast, fresh tuna or soya.

    Otherwise just enjoy it with big smile on your face knowing it's veggie and doing you the world of good.

    1. Yes, agreed. It's a lovely recipe and 'veggie' would go down well.

      And being vegetarian is not only much better for our health but it's a moral issue too. It would be great if more of us could think about that.
