Light Lunches

I often struggle to make myself a quick lunch, packed with flavour and that will sustain me until the end of the day. Lately I've been trying to loose a little weight (for my wedding) and am hoping to eat my largest meal at lunch rather than before bed. Below is a delicious lunch that won't take hours to prepare.

Nicoise Salad

Ingredients:
- handful of green beans
- 2 medium eggs
- half a tin of tuna in brine (sustainable of course)
- 6 back olives
- 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar
- 3 tablespoons of olive oil

Method:
- Simply boil the eggs and beans in one pan on a medium heat for 4 minutes.
- Strain and flake your tuna.
- Once boiled place your beans onto a plate.
- Submerge the eggs into iced water and peal.
- Pop your tuna onto the beans and place on your sliced eggs.
- Slice your olives in half and pour over the balsamic vinegar and olive oil and season with a little black pepper.
