When the weather is nice, the last thing you want to do is spend hours in the kitchen. That's why we’ve put together a simple and tasty idea for a quick lunch that will leave you feeling satisfied without taking too much of your precious outdoor time. Think of it as the perfect balance between healthy, light ingredients and just enough indulgence to keep you going.

What's on the Menu?

Start with a fresh mixed salad. Choose whatever leafy greens you have on hand, and don't be afraid to mix in some colorful veggies. Fresh, crispy textures will make this salad a treat.

Next, add some seasonal fruit for a burst of natural sweetness. While peaches are always a great option during the summer, we have another suggestion for autumn time: figs. Their rich, honey-like flavor perfectly complements the other ingredients, making this salad a little more luxurious. If figs aren’t available, no worries—experiment with what’s in your fridge. The goal is to keep it light, fresh, and flavorful!

And of course, no meal would be complete without a generous helping of our Grashka Chiko. This plant-based protein is not only delicious but also full of nutrients, making it the perfect addition to your salad. Whether you prefer it diced, sliced, or pan-seared for a bit of extra crunch, Chiko adds that hearty element to your meal while keeping it plant-based and wholesome.

Simple, Flavorful Seasoning

When it comes to seasoning, we believe in keeping things simple yet flavorful. Toss your salad with just extra virgin olive oil, a sprinkle of freshly cracked black pepper, and a pinch of sea salt. These basics bring out the best in your ingredients, letting the natural flavors shine.

That’s all you need—no fancy dressings or complicated sauces required. With high-quality ingredients, the simplicity is where the magic happens.

Less Time Cooking = More Time Enjoying

The best part of this meal? It comes together in just a few minutes, so you can spend less time cooking and more time enjoying the sunshine. Whether you're heading out for a picnic, soaking up the rays on your balcony, or simply taking a break in the garden, this quick and easy lunch will fuel your day without slowing you down.

So, next time you're craving something fresh, light, and delicious, remember this simple recipe. Grab your salad greens, your favorite seasonal fruit, and, of course, Grashka Chiko—the plant-based protein that makes every meal a little more special.

Here's to eating well and living better!
