RECIPE // fast teriyaki stir fry with prawns, broccoli and brown rice

Today I had my first day in my new job at Pinnacle Fitness cafe. Except it didn't feel like I was working. No clock watching or waiting for home time, I was just hanging out with lovely people preparing food and watching the charity strongman competition. Congratulations to everyone who attended and contributed to raising money!

After all that time spent in the kitchen however, I do feel like having a bit of a break and cooking something super easy, but nonetheless tasty. Pre-made sauces from supermarkets are by no means healthy, but you can limit the damage by making sure you enjoy them with an abundance of green vegetables, lean protein and unrefined carbohydrates. That's what you call balance, it's realistic.
