Guincho salad

There is this perfect little café which looks over my favourite beach, Guincho. We go there so many times, because there is nothing better than drinking a coffee, eating a croissant while you're watching the ocean.

I'm on a school break now, so I have time to relax and just enjoy living in Portugal and being with my family. And so the other day I went to this café with my family and I decided to show you guys how amazing this place is.

There is a salad which I love to order, because it is unique, tasty and also filling. I had this many times and the last time I went I wrote down all the ingredients I tasted, so I could try to recreate at home. The next day I made this salad and I think it turned out pretty great.

With this recipe I'm only going to give you the ingredients and how to make it, because I feel like with salad recipes you don't exactly need the measurements, because all depends on you're taste.

SALAD INGREDIENTS: 

chicken breast
curry
salad mix
coriander
couscous
apple

FOR THE DRESSING:
olive oil
cinnamon
curry
lemon

Season the chicken with salt and pepper and fry it in a pan with some oil and curry. Add your salad mix, peeled and sliced apple, couscous (which you've cooked according to the instructions on the box), coriander and the fried curry chicken into a bowl. For the dressing mix the olive oil, salt, pepper, curry, cinnamon and some lemon juice in a glass and drizzle it on the salad. The good thing about salads is that if you forget something you can always add it later. 

Enjoy!

I had so much fun making this post for you guys, so I hope you like it! 

See you next week :)

Salmon and Chicken Wrap

Wraps are among my favourite things to eat, because you can really put anything that you like in them and they taste amazing. I usually eat lunch at home twice a week and that is when I like to make myself something filling but healthy. Most of the time I make  either a chicken or a salmon wrap. They are different but both of them taste really good. I like the chicken one, because I put tomato sauce in it and it tastes great, and I like the salmon one, because I LOVE salmon! :) You can use other ingredients too, but it is very important to put crispy fresh salad with it.

I want to share with you these recipes so you can also make them when you want to have a quick lunch or dinner.

Chicken wrap:

half a breast of a chicken

chicken spice (any kind prefer) 

1 wrap

1-2 tablespoons of tomato sauce

3-4 cherry tomatoes

1 slice of cheese (or just grate some on top)

some salad

some mushrooms

Salmon wrap:

1 slice of salmon

1 wrap

half of an avocado

lemon (juice)

some salad with arugula 

cheese

3 cherry tomatoes

1 tablespoon of cream fresh (tejföl) (this is optional)

Chicken wrap:

First, cut your chicken into little chunks, then fry them in a pan in some oil and spice. Get your wrap and spread the tomato souce and then add the chicken, tomatoes, salad, mushrooms and cheese (you can use any kind of cheese, I used parmesan). Roll it up and my tip for you is if you're not going to eat it right away, then put a toothpick in the center so it holds the wrap togehter and when you are ready to eat just take it out.

Salmon wrap:

Take the wrap and spread some sour cream on it and add the salmon and the avocado and sqeeze some lemon juice on them. Then add the salad, cheese, tomatoes and roll it up and you are done.

You can use any other ingredients that you would like for these wraps. Enjoy!
