Healthy Sausage & Chips

Sometimes you just need a plate of food that takes you back to childhood. Eating food is not meant to be a chore. It’s meant to be fun. It’s meant to bring back happy memories and be a sociable occasion that you can share with your friends and family. It’s funny really because when I was a child I would never have chosen to eat sausages and chips, but now when eating it I can’t help but feel I missed out on so much. To be fair this plate of sausage and chips is nothing like that beige plate of fried, greasy, unhealthiness that it would have been as a child, but then that goes to show that healthy food can still be fun, comforting and tasty!
