π₯ We are back with another healthy lunch idea for National Nutrition Month and this one is all about color! Building a big, colorful salad is one of the easiest ways to pack a ton of nutrients into one meal.
Start with a base of mixed greens or spinach, then load it up with whatever colorful vegetables you have on hand. Cherry tomatoes, shredded carrots, cucumber, red onion, roasted sweet potato, and avocado are all great options. Add a protein like grilled chicken, hard boiled eggs, chickpeas, or canned salmon, and finish with a simple dressing of olive oil and lemon or balsamic vinegar.
The more colors on your plate, the more vitamins and antioxidants you are getting. Think of it as eating the rainbow! A satisfying, nutrient-packed lunch does not have to be complicated. Follow us all month for more healthy meal ideas! π
