'Eat Clean' challenge | day 6

Oh my goodness, this is heaven!

The 'Eat Clean' Office challenge

In July, I will be doing work experience - which means I'll be sitting down and facing a screen for a month. Not exactly healthy, so I'm compensating with my diet by trying to cook my own meals and come up with healthy lunch-box friendly recipes every day. Yeah, wish me luck.

Menu du jour | student edition

Tuesdays are a god sent day of no lectures which means 2 things: I live in my pijamas till about lunchtime and then I make things more adventurous than pasta or sandwiches. 

Best start to the day

Tomato and mozzarella salad - take 2

Avocado cult club

People wait for half terms and holidays to catch up on sleep and the all so vital social life. In my case, add a good dose of cooking! I just love taking the time to make myself healthy meals or snacks and the satisfaction at the end of it is worth the burnt frying pans that I invariably have to scrub afterwards.

Case in point, a spur of the moment superfood salad inspired (but reworked to suit the stuff left over in the fridge) by the Honey Chipotle Chicken Bowls by howsweeteats.com which you can see by clicking HERE.

I adapted the recipe and to a handfull of quinoa cooked with zest from half a lemon and some butter, I  added a chicken breast glazed with a little honey and rosemary. The rest includes an avocado, a chopped pepper, a bunch of roughly chopped parsley, toasted pine nuts and sliced cherry tomatoes with chives.

Lighting was not on my side and so some pictures might not do it justice but damn was it a good lunch!
