This week healthy eating by cooking meat, fish and vegetables in a parcel in the oven. Cooking in this way makes it nice and healthy due to the food being steamed within the oven and all the flavours joins together to make a great flavoursome meal.

We made the parcels with turkey, chicken and cod but you could use any fish, any vegetables can be used but they must be cut into the same size pieces so they will all cook at the same time. We used stir fry vegetables, carrots, new potatoes, green beans, leeks, peppers to name but a few, garlic and lemons were used by a few students. Sweet chilli sauce and sweet and sour sauce were used to enhance the flavours. The parcels were made with greaseproof paper but you could use kitchen foil, which would be easier to seal together. They take about 30 minutes to cook but make sure that the meat and vegetables are cooked thoroughly before eating, if it is not ready then put back in the oven and look after 10 minutes.
