Healthy Tuna salad is a great way to get your protein, and it's filling as well. Tuna salad is very high in calorie when you buy it, so this version is much lower in calories, is bulked up with fresh crunchy veggies and is great for meal prep...
This arugula watermelon salad is a special one. Quite literally. It's a summer special at my favorite restaurant, Antico Posto. It's on the menu for a total of three weeks, and you bet I'm there every week when it is.

Adding the honey into the butter marinade brings out even more flavor.
