1. Green smoothie

It is the perfect morning snack and not only provides us with all sorts of healthy ingredients, but it also detoxifies the body and increases our ability to concentrate: the green smoothie! Numerous celebrity women rightly swear by the beauty drink, which ideally supports weight loss and long-term saturates thanks to the fiber it contains. If you still lack the right smoothie mixer, you can get the stylish Mix & Go Mini Smoothie Maker from WMF for around 30 euros.

ingredients

• 1 handful of spinach alternatively
• 1 apple with peel
• 1 peeled banana
• 1/4 peeled and cored avocado
• Orange juice
• 1 thumb ginger with skin
• 200ml water

Here's how it works:

Wash ingredients, peel and chop if necessary.
First put the soft ingredients such as banana, avocado or mango in the blender jar. Then add the remaining ingredients.
Mix with a powerful mixer for about 1 minute until the smoothie has a uniform, creamy consistency.

2. Porridge

We have already reported several times about the positive properties of porridge, because not only do the oatmeal contain us for a long period of time, the digestion also gets going, our muscle building is supported and we prevent cravings. To make the breakfast more varied, we can upgrade the porridge with nuts, fruits, and Co.

Ingredients:

50g oatmeal
250ml water, milk or a vegetable milk alternative of your choice
a pinch of salt
Nuts of your choice 
Raspberries or blueberries

Here's how it works: 

Roast oatmeal briefly in a pan over high heat.
Add milk,  vegetable milk, or water to the saucepan with a pinch of salt and heat.
Add the lightly toasted oatmeal and bring it to a boil, stirring constantly.
After about five minutes, when the porridge has thickened well, remove the pan from the plate. 
Refine with any ingredients such as almonds, walnuts, berries, maple syrup, and Co. 

3. A quick summer salad 

A salad should not be missing in the repertoire of every figure-conscious woman and since we are heading for the most beautiful of all seasons, a summer salad is particularly popular. We can prepare this ourselves quickly and easily during the lunch break and afterward feel perfectly fit. Our favorite is a watermelon- based salad.

Ingredients: 

• ½ kg watermelon, seedless 
• 1 organic lime
• 40g walnut kernels 
• 1 bunch of mint 
• 200g feta cheese 
• freshly ground pepper 
• 1 tablespoon of olive oil 

Here's how it works:

Cut the melon into wedges, remove the peel. Cut the pulp into large cubes.
Wash limes, grate dry, halve, and squeeze the juice. Drizzle the melon with lime juice.
Lightly roast walnuts in a pan without fat. Remove from the pan, let cool, and roughly chop.
Wash mint, shake dry, and pluck leaves from the stems.
Roughly crumble the cheese. Sprinkle nuts, mint, and a little pepper over it, drizzle with oil. 

4. Green asparagus with salmon 

Green asparagus in combination with fried salmon is also one of our favorite dishes in the warm season. While asparagus is made up of 93 percent water and is high in fiber, which stimulates digestion in a natural way, fresh salmon contains valuable fats and also supports the metabolism of sugar, fat, and protein.

Ingredients:

• 120g salmon fillet 
• 1/2 clove of garlic 
• 1 tablespoon of olive oil 
• 1/2 teaspoon of honey 
• 1/4 teaspoon of Dijon mustard 
• 250g green asparagus 
• salt and pepper 
• 1 teaspoon of chopped parsley

Here's how it works:

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.
Put the olive oil with the mustard, a bit of lemon juice, and the clove of garlic in a jar and mix it into an even mixture.
Place the salmon with the asparagus in a baking dish, spread both with the paste, season everything with salt and pepper, and garnish the salmon fillet with lemon slices.
Let it cook in the oven for about 20 minutes and top the finished lunch with the parsley. 

5. Sweet potato fries

Fresh sweet potato fries are extremely simple and tasty at the same time, which are anything but unhealthy if you prepare them yourself. Because instead of frying them in the deep fryer, the fries are left in the oven - ideally in a baking dish (available for about 25 euros from Amazon ) - to become crispy brown and thus avoid unnecessary calories from fat and oil. The homemade fries are the ideal snack at lunchtime and keep you full for a long time.

Ingredients: 

• 3 large sweet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons of cornstarch
• 4 tablespoons of olive oil
• 1 tablespoon of rosemary
• salt 
• pepper

Here's how it works:

Peel the sweet potatoes, cut them into chips, and put them in a bowl and sprinkle with starch.
Mix the french fries with the oil, salt, pepper, and rosemary.
Place the sweet potato fries on a baking sheet lined with baking paper and put in the oven, which should be preheated to 250 degrees top/bottom heat.

6. Vegetable pasta

For us, they are the best solution not to have to do without pasta and still do something good for our slimline: Zoodles. Simply twisted by a spiral cutter (available from Amazon for around 13 euros ), normal zucchini can be transformed into delicious pasta in no time at all. They deliver volume and thus satisfy - but with a tiny part of the calories that normal pasta has.

Ingredients: 

• basil 
• 1 small clove of garlic 
• 50g parmesan cheese 
• 75ml olive oil 
• salt and pepper 
• 600g zucchini 
• 150g red and yellow cherry tomatoes 

Here's how it works:

Peel and roughly chop garlic. Grate parmesan.
Approx. Puree 50g of basil leaves, parmesan, garlic, and olive oil.
 Wash the zucchini, clean them and cut them into long strips with a spiral cutter. Wash and halve tomatoes.
Mix the zucchini noodles and pesto carefully and season again.
Mix in the tomato halves and garnish with basil.

7. Healthy dessert

But of course, we cannot avoid a delicious dessert even in summer - here, too, we do not have to do without healthy ingredients and can, therefore, strike without a guilty conscience. Our favorite is Nicecream, which does not contain any caloric ingredients and instead is based on frozen fruits such as bananas, strawberries, and mango as well as some toppings. The dessert is particularly beautiful in fashionable bowls that we spotted on Amazon for about 26 euros.
