This fresh salad recipe featuring tuna, sliced mango and pecans comes together in no time! To turn this side dish into a complete meal, serve it with grilled salmon.
Yes, I went there – I took tuna salad and loaded it with a bunch of veggies and mango, drizzled with yogurt dressing and added a big handful of pecans and sunflower seeds.

Hey friends! How are you? Hope you’re enjoying the morning. Btw, Happy Friday! ;-) It’s been a while since I’ve done a stay-in-shape-related post, so I thought I’d share some of the things I’ve learned in keeping myself in shape during the last few hectic weeks.
As you already know, I don’t believe in quick magic diets that promise you to lose weight in a short time, gain energy and fix all of your health problems.
Quality for quantity, get fit for video games — this is how I see it, “no excuses” when it comes to making healthier choices. So, give one, two, or why not even all three of these habits a try for a month, and let me know how it works for you….
This rucola, blue cheese and walnuts salad served with roasted grapes makes for a great dinner – light enough not to knock you down so quickly, but surprisingly delicious from the roasted grapes to awaken your lust… for everything. I promise! ;)
I love everything about today’s salad. Have you guys ever tried roasted grapes? If not, you really need to. Not to mention, they pair perfectly with blue cheese and walnuts. …
A double dose of protein for tomorrow’s lunch anyone? Buttery black lentils, hearty white quinoa and chunks of avocado… Mmmmm, you bet it tastes awesome. Really awesome!
Summer came back to Düsseldorf and I am SO happy. Life and people seem easier to deal with when the sun is shining.
I am also in the mood of eating tons of fruit all day long and very simple meals (fast to prepare too) like today’s salad. Now imagine the buttery black lentils combined with the hearty white quinoa how it goes. Avocado lends a lovely, buttery flavor and fresh oregano makes this salad look and taste alive. Don’t you also think? :) …
This homemade guacamole served with lentils & beans salad looks festive, right? And it’s delicious, creamy and light – right on time for a busy weeknight.
This particular guacamole recipe has been my fast-to-grab snack over the past couple of days. Basically, I went and topped some whole-grain crackers with guacamole and sliced hard boiled egg and I was good to go for some time. By the way, I strongly recommend you try this snack – deliciousness guaranteed.
Loaded with avocados, cucumber, garlic, green onion, cilantro, olive oil, lime juice and salt, it might be your favorite sauce, too. What I love most about this recipe is how compatible is with, literally, everything: salads, chips, crackers, chicken, dipping veggies, all your favorite healthy stuff….
