Here’s a dish that will definitely ‘pasta’ taste test! Half-moon courgettes cooked with garlic and creme fraiche, served with wholewheat pasta and oven-baked chicken.
“Chicken is a great source of protein, important for helping children grow and with muscle repair. At N Family Club, we include protein foods at least twice each day on our menu.
We also serve wholegrain foods such as pasta at least once per week at lunch and dinner. This delicious pasta dish provides slow-release energy and fibre to help keep little appetites satisfied.” – Laura Matthews, nutritionist.

1 spring onions
1 garlic cloves
1 courgette
Olive oil for frying

Directions:
Chop the spring onions and garlic finely. Slice the courgettes into half moons.
