I love simple healthy food

Hey y'all!

I love to cook but I love to keep it simple and healthy. I believe that each time that you cook you are not simply eating you are "nurturing" yourself.

So my rule is:

simple
healthy
under 30 minutes
and ready to go!

I've been very fortunate to have the chance to travel the world and definitely Mediterranean food is my favorite type of food ever!

I can't live without my Italian and Greek food.  I simply LOVE them! I'm sure you have a Greek food store just around the corner...

I live in Atlanta, and we have the International Bakery on Cheshire Bridge Road which is a Greek store where you can find lots of imported products from Greece. They also cook their own Greek food and you can take it home, freeze it and have it any night at home. So convenient! 

This weekend my husband and me felt very "Greek like" so we drove to the Greek store and bought some basics that we will be using in our daily dinner salads.

Check out these amazing simple items:

Extra virgin olive oil, Kalamata olives and feta cheese

This feta cheese looks out of this world!...





Also every Sunday I cook my weekly meals that I will be having at work. I like to rotate the menus but they are always super simple and obviously super healthy too.

Last week it was Greek salad, hard boiled eggs, grapes and non fat natural flavor yogurt.



This week as I was running out of options I decided to make up the following pasta salad that turned out to be kind of an "Asian" pasta salad as I decided to use soba noodles as the base of my recipe.

I added some extra olive oil, salt, pepper and ready to go! I'm also taking a ripe avocado to add some more of the good fat to my weekly lunch.




So what do you cook for your daily lunch?

Let me know if you have any other simple recipe so that I could incorporate to my Sunday routine.

Have a great week!

Xoxo...
