No-Cook Sardines Spinach Salad

This salad takes barely 10 minutes to put together and this may be the ONLY salad you will ever have to learn to make if you are eating for weight loss!!

This Salad is so filling, energizing and versatile.

The omega 3 fatty acids from fish, good ness of mint, crunch and proteins from the chia seeds and Walnuts also help boost your brainpower.

You could play with ingredients and make this in so many ways that you can never ever get bored.

I have even had this for my 3 PM snack at work while rest of my colleagues were indulging in some unhealthy vending machine snacks or cookies.

IT IS JUST THAT DELISH!!

Replacement Suggestions to make variations of this Salad below:

Sardines could be replaced with Smoked Salmon, or pan-fried Salmon filet, Canned Tuna or even boiled eggs for proteins
Fresh Spinach could be replaced with spring greens or Mixed Greens
Mint could also be replaced with Arugula or fresh Thai Basil (or skip altogther when not in season)
For the added sweetness, you could use an orange, berries or Clementines
