This article is about one of my favorite lunch time recipes. It is healthy, super tasty, easy to make and it includes lots of fat burning foods to help you burn off some fat. You can use it as a slimming lunch or as a light dinner. It contains lean protein that helps to build lean muscle mass that boosts your metabolism and it also contains healthy fats that will help keep you fuller for longer while also protecting your heart and your brain.

Here’s the recipe, I hope that you enjoy it too:
