Grilled Sweet Potatoes with Pistachios
Healthy, because

Nutritional values
Pistachios contain a large amount of valuable polyunsaturated fatty acids and can thus prevent cardiovascular diseases. The green kernels are particularly rich in polyphenols. These antioxidants provide better protection of our body cells against free radicals and can slow down cell aging. Parsley - the classic among kitchen herbs - brings many essential oils that support digestion. The green plant pigment chlorophyll has a blood-cleansing effect.
The orange slices also make a great healthy side dish.
