Recommended Light Dinners

With the arrival of warm weather, there is nothing like fresh and light foods. Whether for lunch or dinner, creams, soups, salads, and pasta are ideal options, plus they will help you maintain your diet. We recommend preparing light dinners and not too heavy meals. Cucumber, tomato, oil, onion, pepper, salt to taste. Just mix these ingredients in a blender and you have a delicious gazpacho in just about 10 minutes. We recommend making it in the morning or early afternoon and letting it rest in the refrigerator until we drink it, that way it will be much colder and tastier.

But remember that you should eat at least one piece of fruit a day throughout the year. The fruit salad allows you to eat a little bit of everything.
