Today’s recipe is a good summer salad: Tuna, orzo, chick peas, tomatoes, cucumber and fresh herbs with a lemon dressing. This refreshing salad just might become a summer staple at your table. It is wonderfully filling, improves as it sits, and can be easily transported for lunch at the office.

The tuna makes this a meal-in-a-bowl type of salad, and if you want a vegetarian option, just omit the tuna.

Looking for a good summer salad recipe? I love the colors and flavors in this salad! The mix of potato, tuna, green beans, onions, lettuce and tomatoes make this salad the perfect summer lunch. If you want a vegetarian version, just omit the tuna.

Summer has officially arrived so let’s celebrate with this wonderful Roasted Potato, Asparagus and Arugula Salad. It is super easy to make, does not require a lot of ingredients, and is delicious.

Serve this salad for a summer cookout or on a picnic with a batch of your favorite grilled meat, fish or chicken. If you’re not going to serve the salad immediately, like on a picnic, leave out the arugula until you’re ready to serve. Also, be sure to let the potato salad come to room temperature before adding the arugula so not to serve cold. Buen provecho! Read more…

I made this Corn, Egg and Bean Salad for lunch last week and it was simple, filling, and very tasty!

This salad makes a great accompaniment to grilled chicken or pork, but it’s also substantial enough to stand alone. Either way, be sure to have a loaf of crusty bread alongside. Buen provecho! Read more…

Today I want to share with you another yummy salad that I made myself for lunch this week. It was fresh, quick and delicious! For a vegetarian version just omit the shrimp.

Layers of flavors from fresh ingredients makes this salad a spring standout.

My lunches have changed since moving to the US, obviously, as I live a different life, in a different country.

Growing up my mom always made a good lunch. Everytime we came home from school, lunch was waiting for us at the table. She usually made soup, salad, fresh fruit juice and a main dish. I have to confess that I used to be a picky eater, so I was not a huge food fan, but I miss those delicious lunches that my mom used to make.

I hope you enjoy this Pasta and Chickpea Salad that I made for my lunch this week. It was easy, simple, healthy and really good. Read more…
