TABLE OF CONTENTS

1. Roasted salmon served with kasha and sauerkraut salad
2. Salad with chicken and croutons
3. Turkey meatballs in tomato sauce with barley groats and boiled beetroot

 

1. Salmon baked with kasha and sauerkraut salad

Salmon, although it is a fatty fish, is a very valuable component of the reduction diet. It is a source of wholesome protein and unsaturated fatty acids. The addition of buckwheat, a source of fiber and vitamins, minerals and valuable amino acids, makes this meal exceptionally filling. The whole is complemented by sauerkraut, a source of vitamin C, which has recently been called „super foods”.

Components

– salmon 200 g;

– kasha 50 g;

– sauerkraut 50 g;

– onion, oil.

Preparation

Wash the salmon, rub with salt and garlic. Bake in a preheated oven in a casserole for 20-25 minutes.

The kasha can be cooked in two ways:  in 100g packed bags – then place the bag in boiling water and cook for 15 minutes or you can also cook unpicked groats – in this case, make a salted water in a ratio of 2:1 (water to kasha), and cook under cover with a slightly open lid for 15 minutes. Grains should absorb all the water. Any excess water should be drained.

The sauerkraut should be drained, rinsed and cut. Then add the finely chopped onion, sprinkle with oil and mix it all.

2. Salad with chicken and croutons

Salad with chicken and vegetables is an excellent form of a light dinner, which will saturate thanks to the presence of chicken protein, give energy thanks to croutons and provide vitamins from vegetables.
