Eating healthy doesn’t have to be expensive, fancy or time consuming! Sometimes, we get overwhelmed with all the options and forget that throwing a bunch of veggies together IS enough!
Simple meals are where it’s at for me during the week when I have classes to teach, clients to meet and kids activities to drive around too. I keep my fridge stocked with veggies and my pantry full with canned beans for salads, wraps and bean burgers.
And no need to make a separate meal for the kids, they will love this salad. Mine always go back for a second helping!
You probably have some, if not all of these ingredients in your fridge right now:) If not, stock up because you might only have 20 minutes to make dinner one night and now you can whip up the perfect meal with no stress.
