What are some simple, yummy, healthy recipes?

Q. I am looking for some easy, healthy, yummy recipes. Short preparation and cook time preferred. Please keep in mind that I'm a college student that works part time and I cannot spend tons of money either. Also, I do not eat chicken or pork. I prefer to eat seafood most of the time as it is lean and healthy. I eat beef very rarely because I prefer it over iron tablets. Thanks! :)

A. Stir fry - Put a bunch of vegetables in the wok with a touch of oil, serve over short grain brown rice.

Soup - Boil vegetables, throw in some noodles, drop in a raw egg or some cooked beans, how about a few shrimp.

Tortillas, beans & cheese. Slice in some tomatoe and avocado.

Sandwiches - Get nice crusty bread, good cheeses, fresh tomatoes, grilled vegetables, tuna fish. Also smoked fish on bagels.

Pilaf - Rice with herbs & seasonings, mix in toasted nuts & seeds, stir in some minced broccoli, carrot or cauliflower, cook using broth for more flavor, add fresh melon on top

Get some good Indian, Chinese and South Asian cookbooks!


How to perfect my pizza sandwich recipe?
Q. I made up this recipe but I want some herbs to make the taste BAM into your mouth. So far it's just melted cheese and a healthy mix of tomato paste (with garlic and some bits of onion mixed through) between two thick slices of bread.

Any food you would put in it or any herbs you would suggest. I am aiming for it to taste like a homemade pizza. I would like to make it so the garlic bursts and shows itself clearly.

A. Oregano would be the best herb to add. It goes great with cheese and tomatoes and is always in pizza. Oooh, and make sure you add some black pepper too.

To bring the garlic out more, try rubbing a clove on the bread first, or grating a TINY bit of raw garlic in. The flavour's incredibly strong when it's raw, so it'll definitely bring out the garlickiness, but don't overdo it!
