Fried Egg

Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Crack an egg into the pan and cook until the whites are set but the yolk remains runny, about 2-3 minutes.

Chicken and Vegetables Stir-Fry

Slice chicken breasts into strips. Heat oil in a wok or large frying pan over high heat. Add chicken strips and stir-fry until cooked through, around 5-7 minutes. Add chopped bell peppers and onions, and stir-fry for an additional 3-5 minutes, until vegetables are tender but still crisp.

Steamed Vegetables

Cut green beans and carrots into thin sticks. Steam in a steamer or in a microwave with a bit of water until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Season lightly with salt.

Roasted Sweet Potato

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the sweet potato into wedges or chunks, toss with a little oil, and season with salt and herbs. Spread out on a baking tray and roast until tender, about 20-25 minutes.
