The finished lunch, yumm... |
Another yummy lunch today. This is a recipe I have made a couple of times before. What I like about it is that it is so ridiculously healthy you feel virtuous eating it!! Oh yeah....and it's tastes delicious to boot. You marinate some chicken breast pieces in olive oil, orange rind, cumin and garlic. The oranges are then used for the salad, along with some tin lentils, my home grown parsley and chives, cucumber and red onion. On the plate are perfect proportions of protein, vegetables and carbohydrates. I served it with a slice of Wholemeal Sourdough bread and topped the skewers with low fat yoghurt.
Leftovers: You could freeze the chopped, marinated chicken in to individual portions for later use. The salad could be eaten over a couple of days and would be a delicious addition to any barbequed meat or as a vegetarian wrap served with yoghurt or cheese.
