Every person knows that in order to truly be healthy you need to eat a nutritious and balanced diet and get a proper workout regularly. Sadly, there isn't always enough time or energy for us to really do the things we want to do. At the conclusion of the day, almost everyone want to go home, not to the gym. We want a delicious, greasy burger, not an equally delightful salad (unless we’re vegetarians). The good news is that making wise decisions doesn’t have to be a chore. If you keep going with it, you'll get all of the required nutrients and exercise. Here are some tips to be as healthful as possible.

Walk up the stairs. Rather than riding an elevator, climb up the stairs to the floor you live or work on. This isn't as simple to do if you work on a very high floor but if you work on a lower floor, using the stairs is a excellent way to get some extra exercise. If you do work on a very high floor, why not get off the elevator a couple of floors earlier and walk the rest of the way? Most people will decide to be idle and take an elevator instead of choosing exercise on the stairs. Even just a individual flight of stairs, when walked up or down a few times a day--can be a great boost to your system.

There are lots of things you can go after to become healthy. Extensive gym visits and narrowly defined diets are not always the answer. It is the little things you choose on a daily basis that really help you with weight loss and becoming healthy. Being intelligent about the selections you make each day is a start. A proper amount of physical activity each day is also important. Remember: being healthy and balanced isn’t just about losing weight. It has more to do with making your body as strong as it can be.

8. .
   
9. Once ready, cover with a towel and leave for 45 minutes.
10. Now you can move onto preparing the different toppings.
11. Chop the akawi, rinse it and then soak it in luke warm water for 30 minutes (this washes the salt out).

17. Back to the dough....
18. Heat your oven to 220c (hotter the better)..
19. To get the manouche perfect, you need a lot of heat from the bottom so that the dough will be evenly cooked. Its best when you’re able to fold it after its cooked (not too crispy anywhere).
20. If your oven doesn’t have a bottom heating element then you will probably need a pizza stone. If you dont have one of these then you can do what i did and use a hot pan on the hob to pre-bake the bottom side and then use the ovens grill to cook the toppings and the top side of the dough, it was difficult to do in the kitchen but turned out really well.
21. Roll out the dough and split it into around 10 parts, be sure to add some flour to the surface to stop it from sticking.
22. Using the rolling pin, roll the dough into a circular shape like pizza.
23. Apply the toppings to the base. Spread a little vegetable oil on the dough before adding the cheese to help it cook better then cook in the oven or using the suggestion above.
24. Its done once the toppings are cooked properly and the dough is cooked but not too crispy. You should be able to lift one side and have it fold nicely while looking like the picture below.
25. Enjoy!.
26. 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻.
