Salad Sandwich + bonus recipe at the end!

Sometimes, I regret whatever I did, mostly because of my natural laziness.

Chinese New Year is here again. Those red packets (known as 'angpao'), endless of house visitings and various of food served, but before all that, it's very important for us to look good for the first few days of Chinese New Year, but I would rather grab a whole pack of salty potato chips and shove them into my mouth rather than lifting dumbbells, why not try out this recipe instead? I have been eating it for a week and it does make me feel more refreshed and healthier. I could also feel the size of my waist minimising.

If you think that it's too late for to start a new diet, just enjoy yourself during the New Year and diet later afterwards.

Salad Sandwich

First of all, you'll need the following ingredients:

1. A pair of burger buns/sandwich bread
2. 2-3 pieces of lettuce 
3. Half an avocado
4. A carrot
5. A tomato
6. 2 slices of cheese
7. A bottle of salad dressing

Some ingredients are optional (like the avocado, carrot, tomato and salad dressing). You can basically switch the ingredients up and try adding cucumber, mustard sauce, bell peppers, etc.

Before doing anything, wash all of your fruits and vegetables with water properly.

Step 1: Toast your buns or bread for 7 minutes in a toaster.

If you want to avoid your buns or bread being burnt or turn into charcoal black, place a metal tray or an aluminium foil under the buns or bread before toasting them.

Step 2: Slice your avocados into chunks (slice until your desired size or shape, it's your choice)

Step 3: Repeat step 2 for your tomato

Step 4: Grate or slice up your carrots into thin pieces

 (it should look something like this)

Step 5: Grab a handful of lettuce (don't grab too much) and rinse them with water thoroughly

Step 6: Remove your buns or bread in the toaster after it has heated up and place them on a plate

Step 7: Add the two slices of cheese on top of the buns or bread so they can melt a little bit (you can also add the cheese slices in step 1 so it'll melt even more and taste better)

Step 8: Add your lettuce

Step 9: Add your tomatoes

Step 10: Followed by your carrot slices

Step 11: Top it off with your favourite salad dressing, just pour gently (don't pour excessively)

Step 12: Finally, squeeze your sandwich or burger together as tight as you can so it won't be too thick when you take a bite out of it

And it's done!

This is the final result! Mouth watering, eh?

The burger is quite thick, so prepare to open your mouth widely for it.

Nestum Chia Seed Drink

Next, I had also tried to get something to drink, other than detox tea, so came out with this. It tastes very good and won't make you feel bloated but could last for several hours.

Here are the following ingredients that you'll need:

1. A packet of Instant Nestum Powdered-Drink
2. A cup
3. A teaspoon
4. A tablespoon
5. Some brown sugar
6. A packet of chia seeds (optional)
7. A carton of milk

Step 1: Grab a glass or a cup and add in 4-5 teaspoons of Nestum

Step 2: Add in half a teaspoon of brown sugar 

Step 3: Add in two tablespoons of chia seeds

(It should look something like this by now)

Step 4: With a spoon, mix them together until it's all mixed-well

Step 5: Pour half a cup of hot or warm water into the cup

Step 6: Add 2/3 of milk into the cup

And you're good to go!

The Final Results:

It's super healthy and tasted really good. You guys should definitely try it out! Hereby, wishing you all for the best and Happy Chinese New Year!
