3 Easy Salads for A Lazy, But Healthy Meal
I won’t waste your time with too much talk, because I never understand the purpose of having people scroll through 5 pages of story telling before getting to the point, in this case: the recipes.
All I will say before we get to the good stuff is that these meals are meant to be simple and EASY, but really satisfying. You can always swap in and out the ingredients you like, but there are a few key points to creating a solid salad.
Tips for making a healthy, but quick salad.
Keep microwaveable rice or quinoa (or other grain of choice) stocked in your kitchen. There are a good amount of options that are organic and made with simple ingredients (ie. rice). I always keep frozen rice stocked in the house to ensure there’s a quick and easy option that I know won’t go bad.
No-fuss protein is another must to ensure you actually incorporate enough protein into your meal. This is something that is too easy to skip, but so important. A few of my favorite include: canned tuna, hard boiled eggs, tofu or tempeh, feta cheese, black beans or even chicken or turkey dogs :).
Don’t skip on the toppings to spice it up and add crunch and flavor. This can be seeds like sunflower or pumpkin seeds, tortilla strips or pieces, or hemp seeds for extra protein!
