A Salad Worth Slowing Down For!

I wondered through the street market and couldn’t resist the pile of sun-kissed cherry tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, and fragrant mint. Back in the kitchen, I tossed them together with a squeeze of lemon, a drizzle of olive oil, and a handful of toasted seeds. Simple, fresh, and done in minutes salad. Eating this way isn’t just delicious—it’s one of the easiest ways to care for your body. Studies have shown that people who eat mostly fresh, unprocessed foods lower their risk of heart disease by around 25%. It doesn’t have to be complicated. Start with one meal a day that’s full of colour and made from ingredients you’d recognise at the market.
