3. Brown Rice Pilaf with Lemon and Green Olives
Looking for a healthy grain dish? You’ve found it. When plain brown rice just won’t cut it, this version will pack some flavor onto your plate. It does take some time, but the result is a creamy rice almost akin to risotto, with a light flavor that we think would pair wonderfully with chicken or fish – not to mention a nice white wine!

4. Chickpea, Lemon, Feta Salad
This chickpea-based salad is a delightfully light alternative to the potato and pasta salads that are standard picnic or barbecue fare. Super quick to assemble, the recipe calls for chickpeas (use canned, or soak beforehand if you start with dried), feta cheese, cherry tomatoes, lemon juice, oregano, olive oil, salt, and pepper. That’s it!
Just combine the ingredients and you’re ready to go. This would also make a perfect work or school lunchbox snack! For more information, check out the recipe page here.
