Have resolved to start eating healthier since I found out the shocking news that my diet, while seemingly adhering to the pyramid, is completely haywire. Seems like the food pyramid alone is not enough to analyse diets.

Doesn’t it look yummy?? J
Tried cooking this with mum just now and though mine did not look as appetising as the photo above, but it tastes just as yummy as if I did not substitute the cream and pasta. Will try to upkeep a healthy lifestyle starting with this!!
