Most of us find ourselves short on time during a busy week, and energy levels can be very low. When we get home from work, cooking may be the last thing we want to do, but finding a healthy meal without cooking can be hard. Here are some ideas for super easy and quick meals that are well-balanced and nutritious for those low-energy evenings.

Greek Salad

This dish is the perfect quick and light meal which is packed full of healthy ingredients. Simply chop up lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, and onion. Add olives and chickpeas if you like, and scatter over some feta cheese.

Sardine Toast

Toast is a great quick and easy food, but isn’t very balanced by itself. Topping it with tinned sardines couldn’t be easier, and adds an amazing source of protein, vitamins, and minerals. For an added health kick, add some salad and even cheese.

Bean and Couscous Salad

This meal can easily be made vegan if required, or you can add cheese for some extra flavor and protein. Couscous couldn’t be easier to make, as you just need to pour boiling water over it and leave it to stand for 5 minutes. Once ready, simply add some canned beans, canned corn, and any other salads or vegetables you want.
