Quick, Healthy Meals for Lazy Days
Everyone has those nights when you just can't be bothered cooking so you end up ordering something that is a little less than healthy. Well today I have your guide to quick, low fuss healthy dinners for those nights when you can't face more than 15 minutes (or less) in the kitchen.
Frozen steamed fish fillets
Keep these 2 ingredients in your freezer for a meal that can be made in the microwave. Keep it interesting by adding dried herbs and spices. Try some chilli flakes or a cajun spice mix.
Cut the chicken into small pieces (the smaller the pieces the quicker it will cook) and coat with garlic. Cook the chicken in a non-stick pan. Chop up the salad vegetables. Slice the bread, drizzle it with a little bit of olive oil and grill until golden.
2 Slices of multi-grain bread
1 Slice of reduced fat cheese
A dash of sweet chilli sauce
Salad vegetables
Drain the can of tuna. Spread the sweet chilli sauce on one slice of bread and add the tuna and cheese on top. Toast the sandwich until it is golden on the outside and the cheese is melted on the inside. Chop up your salad ingredients. There you have it a quick healthy dinner.
Hopefully these ideas give you a starting point to finding your own quick and healthy meals. The possibilities are endless.
If you have any Quick meals for lazy days I would for you to share them.
