2

Cook the snap peas: In a large pan on medium heat, add the oil (1/2 tsp, 1 tsp) and the snap peas. Stirring regularly cook about 4-5 minutes or until the snap peas are cooked but still a bit crunchy.

CARROT
Like all colourful vegetables, carrots are a gold mine of antioxidants such as carotenoids, polyphenols and vitamins. Beta-carotene in carrots helps protect vision (yes your grandmother was right!). A high intake of carotenoids has been linked with a significant decrease in post-menopausal breast cancer, as well as prostate cancer.
