I had no idea what to call this dish, but I had to put it up because it’s super quick, easy and so delicious and\u00a0nutritious\u00a0– not to mention suitable for vegetarians and vegans – win\/win. And silverbeet is incredibly cheap and affordable at the moment as it’s in season, so there are no excuses for not eating healthy – at least not that it’s ‘too expensive’.<\/p>\n

Double up the recipe and you have for lunch the next day as well.<\/p>\n

Serves 2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
• 6 stalks silverbeet (green part only, roughly chopped)<\/li>\n
• 1 cup of pumpkin (diced)<\/li>\n
• 1 medium zucchini (diced)<\/li>\n
• 1 cup cooked barley<\/li>\n
• Salt & Pepper<\/li>\n
• Moroccan Spices<\/li>\n
• Small handful shredded coconut<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Directions:<\/strong><\/p>\n

  \n
  1. In a pot, combine 2 cups of water to 1 cup of barley. Let it simmer on a low-medium heat for about 30 mins.<\/li>\n
  2. Dice the pumpkin and steam lightly until soft.<\/li>\n
  3. In a skillet, heat 1\/2 tsp. coconut oil and add the pumpkin and zucchini to the skillet. Roast\/fry for about 3 minutes.<\/li>\n
  4. Add the chopped silverbeet – remember to only use the green part of the silverbeet as the white part will give a bitter taste – toss around with pumpkin and zucchini. Add salt & pepper to taste and 1 tbsp. moroccan spices.<\/li>\n
  5. Add a small handful of shredded coconut and toss together with the rest of the vegetables.<\/li>\n
  6. Add 1 cup of the cooked barley to the dish and toss together.<\/li>\n
  7. Enjoy!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
