We Malaysians are very proud of our food because they are highly flavorful. This is mainly due to our multicultural traits.
That is our problem there because its too flavorful. Most often its because there is too much seasoning like salt,sugar and worst of all MSG (monosodium glutamate).Because of this, we have been relatively slow in adapting to healthy eating as we often relate healthy food to being, plain, tasteless and unattractive.
So that is what CleanBites is about. CleanBites will be the avenue through which we will introduce healthy eating to Malaysians. It will be the kindergarten for healthy food. We will focus on gradually refining Malaysians’ food palette and changing their perceptions of healthy food.
Our food can be differentiated to 3 levels. At each level we introduce healthier choices. Level 1 being something that is closest to what we are used to and level 3 being the healthiest and taste the most foreign. With every food you learn 1 new thing about making healthier choices. For example white rice vs brown rice, the 5 whites to avoid(sugar, salt,flour, white rice and white pasta.) etc.
The spicy Orange-Chipotle Glazed Chicken Brown Rice Recipe is such a great idea because it contains 4 out of 5 food groups based on the Australian government dietary guideline, we use whole food and unrefined food from ingredients like skinless chicken breast to seasoning and is incredibly delicious. The flavor of the food is tangy, sweet and spicy and has a similar taste to Orange Flavored Chicken but with more heat and flavor.
The Grilled Vegetables Hoagie is a sandwich with a difference because we bake our own whole-meal loaf to ensure its freshness and nutritional values are maintained, it contains wholegrain flour that did not have additives, preservatives, dough conditioners, toxic ingredients nor sugar. Grilling the vegetables can softens the flesh and intensifies their flavor with homemade pesto sauce. Perfect for a nutritious healthy meal or as a hassle-free takeaway.
The Power bar is made of all natural ingredients. Pack with the right amount of energy to start the day without leaving you with a sugar crash making you sleepy makes this the Ideal Power bar. These natural energy bars have simple ingredient lists you can understand — fruits, nuts and seeds. This results in bars without weird off-tastes from the additives and we attempts to use raw honey to replace sugar.
