Summer Swimwear 2
The last thing we want when we we get home after a long hot day at the office or school is a heavy, steaming, stodgy meal. Instead, it should be a time for lighter options. However, the secret is not to miss out on flavour... just because it's a healthier dinner it doesn't mean anything should be sacrificed. What follows are three healthy, light dishes that are refreshingly simple and tasty.

The Vietnamese Pho is a fantastically aromatic and fragrant broth, packed with flavour and swimming in fresh herbs and crunchy beansprouts.
The combination of flavours in the Mango, Strawberry and Chicken Salad just scream out summer sunshine from the start. It's a brilliant zingy marriage of flavours that Ben was inspired to create whilst on holiday but has brought the idea back home for us all to use during our own summer months.
Finishing the meal pack off with a Quinoa Salad makes use of tin-foil to cook/steam the fish which means there was minimal added fat anywhere in the dish. It's not only healthy, but also any leftover salad makes a great packed lunch the day after.
