Thursday Eats – Super Simple Salad
Here’s a quick one – a super simple salad that takes all of 5 minutes to throw together. Paleo or Slow Carb recipe that’s delicious and perfect for a summer time lunch. No cooking required!
- 1/2 medium onion thinly sliced
- 1/4 cucumber thinly sliced
- 3-4 plum tomatoes – cut into quarters
- 1 avocado diced
- 1/2 pickle diced
- 2-3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 2-3 tsp olive oil
- salt/pepper to taste
- pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
- can of albacore tuna (packed in water or olive oil – avoid the ones packed in veg oils)
put onion, cucumber, tomatoes, avocado and pickle in a bowl. Add salt and pepper and red pepper flakes (if using) to taste. Mix balsamic vinegar and olive oil into salad. Drain can of tuna and place on top of salad.
Just a word of advice: Brush your teeth after eating this meal and before talking to people! 
Change this up easily – use grilled chicken breasts in place of tuna or sliced, grilled steak. Add hardboiled eggs and bacon for a savory salad. Have fun with it!
Enjoy!
) of water and tea every day… lots of green tea. Occasionally a glass or two of red wine or vodka, but that’s rare during the week. I mostly save it for cheat day.
