Healthy nuggets, chips and beans :)

This evolved this evening from leftovers but I was delighted!

My "chicken" nuggets were actually leftover roast turkey breast, cut into strips. Beat two eggs with pepper and dip the strips in, then roll through oat bran for a crispy coating. Fry in a non stick pan til nicely golden, done! You can do this with chicken breast from raw too, same method, just make sure to cook til chicken is cooked through.

For my "chips" I actually made celeriac cubes. I've just recently discovered celeriac and I'm a bit in love.
Peel and dice a celeriac into 1cm cubes (ish, don't worry too much). Fry in a small bit of olive oil with a generous sprinkling of thyme (I use dried wild thyme) until toasty golden looking, then add 4 tablespoons of warm water and put the lid on. Turn the heat down and let it steam for about twenty minutes until tender, stirring occasionally.

Add simple baked beans on the side and there you have it, junk food that's good for you!
