The month of May brings with it the month I really need to get myself together and start being healthier. I have been trying but I really need to get a better plan worked out. That is why I sat down and created a meal plan for myself. Hopefully this will make me less stressed about what to make for lunch and dinner, and will also ensure that I actually eat better meals. This simple salad is the first proper meal that I made out of my eating plan and it tasted so good that I felt I needed to share it with you.
Serves 2 (depending on portion size)
Ingredients
3 large leaves of spinach
½ cucumber
2 tomatoes
½ avocado
¼ onion
a handful of nuts
2 tbsp pumpkin seeds
salt and pepper to taste
Method:
- Chop all of the ingredients and put into a bowl – the size of the pieces will depend completely on your personal choice.
- Mix together and serve.
- Place the left over salad in a bowl in the fridge.
If you’re not a fan of spinach then you can replace the spinach with lettuce.
It’s as simple as that! Such a quick and easy recipe – perfect for taking to work as a meal or eating with something else for dinner time. I love the crunch that the nuts add to it! If you’re looking for another quick and easy recipe then why not try the muesli recipe I uploaded a while back? Super quick, and healthy too!
What are your go to lunch recipes? Do you think that you will be trying this one? Let me know in the comments below!

My favorite go-to for lunch tends to be salad, too – I like mine with chicken, hard-boiled egg, spinach, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, carrots, and cheese. Usually, my guilty pleasure it to top it with honey mustard dressing – yum!
That sounds delicious! I need to eat more salads haha!
