I meal prepped this chickpea pasta ahead of time.

It’s chickpea spaghetti ((“spaghetti”)), shredded chicken (real chicken), a variety of mushrooms (none of them magic), in a portabello mushroom, and tomato sauce ((from a jar)).

When I went to take this photo, I’d added the (obvious) prerequisite, Parmesan cheese — but the photo looked boring (and all one color), so I added some olives and microgreens to give it some life. (#magic.)

Now it looks great.

I’m telling you this, because posting my food has made me a better eater ((so I’m going to keep doing it)).

I’ve found that more fruits and veggies is always the answer.

((Always.))
