It is quite easy to serve a delicious recipe that will be ready in about thirty minutes. You can serve it with tortillas or brown rice, depending on your taste. The ingredients will require 4 salmon fillets, 1 large onion that must be sliced, any types of three peppers, one packet of fajita seasoning mix, and chopped parsley.

Here is how you should cook it: set your oven to 200 degrees, peel, and slice up on the onions. De-seed and slice the peppers. Combine two teaspoons of olive oil and fajita seasoning. Brush the salmon fillets with your seasoning and set them aside. Add the vegetables to a large baking dish and add your remaining fajita mix. Combine things to coat. Bake it for 20 minutes.

Cauliflower Rice

One of the healthiest and low-card alternatives you can add to your meals! You can cook with the help of a frying pan or a microwave.

You will need a cauliflower, a little oil if you are frying, and any seasoning to match your taste. You should remove the leaves from the cauliflower and cut the florets into several chunks. Blitz it using a cheese grater or a food processor if you have one. Pat dry with a paper towel. Now, we can store the rice in your freezer and put it out when it is needed. As you have something healthy to eat, you can study with a happy smile.

The Vitamin Drink

Just mix these three ingredients for an immunity boost. Vitamin A is present in carrots by acting as an antioxidant. As for apples and oranges, you will get more vitamin C. Since the students have more than enough stress, this drink will be beneficial.

Talk to Your Family and Friends As You Cook

Do not ignore talking to your family members as you discuss the things you always liked as a child. Ask your beloved family member to share the secret recipe and try to cook along. It will help you to have some intimate time and fun as you finally get together and leave your comfort zone (if you are not good at cooking!). You shall see that your meals and attitude to a healthy lifestyle will change the right way!
