Wave goodbye to summer excesses and say hello to healthy eating. Getting back on a balanced diet after summer indulgences might look like mission impossible, but it\u2019s not! Just follow these three simple steps:<\/p>\n
In the morning\u2026<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Forget about all those sugary pastries you dunked in your morning coffee like there was no tomorrow during the holidays. How about this for a simple, delicious, healthy breakfast? Some wholemeal bread (try some heavenly mixed grain), a dash of extra-virgin olive oil, a pinch of salt and, if you like, some slices of tomato, avocado (or both!). Finish off with a slice of fresh cheese and those pastries will soon be a distant memory.<\/p>\n A hint for keeping bread nice and fresh? Put it in the freezer and pop it straight into the toaster in the morning.<\/p>\n At midday\u2026<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Your new friend is called salad. It\u2019s delicious and far more versatile than you might have thought when you were devouring huge platefuls of calorie-laden dishes. Take note: rice, pasta, quinoa, couscous, lentils, chickpeas, cauliflower, potatoes\u2026 There are a thousand and one basics to get you going, before adding some fruit and vegetables. Drizzle some extra-virgin olive oil over the top as a dressing and top off with a handful of your favourite nuts.<\/p>\n In the evening\u2026<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Your other highly versatile friend is called soup, which you can make out of almost anything: courgettes, carrots, peas, broccoli, cauliflower, chard, spinach, cabbage\u2026 Mix your choice of vegetables together and finish off with a dash of extra-virgin olive oil. Give your tasty creation a protein boost by serving with some grilled fish or meat. You won\u2019t get much healthier than that!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Wave goodbye to summer excesses and say hello to healthy eating.
