Peppers Stuffed with Quinoa
A leftover use recipe that brightens us up for lunch or dinner. We can take advantage of some leftover quinoa with mushrooms or tabouleh quinoa to fill some piquillo peppers. This dish, accompanied by a good salad, will make a complete and very nutritious meal. For the full recipe, please email the contact on my profile.
Grilled Salmon
It's prepared in just 5 minutes and can be accompanied by grilled vegetables such as zucchini or eggplant or a good salad. This meal is very complete for those moments when it's impossible to take time out for more elaborate recipes.
Grilled Chicken
Thinking about a healthy diet and grilled chicken breast? This is the perfect dish. It can be served with a little salad and some leftover rice with paprika vegetables.
Grilled Shrimp
Being in a hurry and wanting to eat a healthy diet is not incompatible with indulging yourself from time to time. For that, what better ingredient than a little seafood like shrimp? It can be enjoyed with a vegetable curry soup or a Thai salad, or paired with spinach cream.
Grilled Beef and Salad
Another diet classic, grilled beef doesn't have to be that shoe sole-style steak we usually imagine when thinking of healthy food. Instead, try it with a salad for a nutritious and satisfying meal.
French Omelette
Another classic dish, which can be turned into a very attractive meal with a little imagination. This time, I added a few pieces of cheese to some leftover spinach with red pepper and put it as a filling for the omelette. This dish is not only tasty but also appealing at first sight.
Grilled Fish
If you're looking to maintain a healthy diet while minimizing fat intake, salmon may not be the most appropriate option. In this case, consider using a leaner white fish like cod (eligible for a local name like 'rapante' in the rest of Spain). This recipe includes potatoes and steamed carrots that can be prepared in just 6 minutes in the microwave.
Grilled Squid
Squids are a great source of protein with little fat. Grilling them is a cleaner and quicker method compared to frying. This meal can be served with PadrĂ³n peppers, cooked in the microwave without added fat, salad, zucchini, and grilled eggplant.
Vegetarian Sushi
A delightful meal that is barely fat and suitable for following a healthy diet. It's not only delicious but also a great option for those looking to maintain a balanced meal.
Scrambled Eggs
My favorite quick meal! Scrambled eggs are simple, quick to make, and children usually enjoy them as well. They are an excellent option for dinner and a nutritious breakfast.
Pasta
And of course, eating a healthy diet doesn't have to mean avoiding pasta. Instead of using a greasy industrial sauce, you can pair whole wheat pasta with low-fat meat like turkey or chicken and a sauce based on fresh vegetables. This meal will be much better for your health.
