I often whip this up for a quick and healthy lunch for one, but it makes a fantastic salad. Rich with nutrients, it’s also gluten, dairy and sugar free!
This is pure pantry staple heaven in a bowl. A quick no fuss lunch that just makes you feel good inside. I like to use Sirena Tuna packed in oil here. It’s chunky and full of flavour. If you’re not a fan of Tuna, salmon or cooked chicken could be used instead.
To turn this into a more substantial meal, toss through cooked pasta and a good splash of olive oil.
