Light healthy lunch......just what your body ordered!

The last thing the body needs is a heavy meal at lunch time, we all know what happens when we have a heavy meal for lunch......drowsiness with the need to slow down or sleep. Opting for a light meal for lunch seems a sensible idea and can be fun allowing creative juices to flow.
Staples such as couscous and beans are versatile, they can be used with various combo making up a different meal every time.
My daughter put together this healthy meal which is light yet satisfying consisting of Pinto beans, vegetables and fish.
The only cooking required is boiling the pulse in water for about an hour.
