You need: a largeย watermelon – 300 gram feta – 3 tablespoons of lemon juiceย – 25 ml olive oilย – 200 gram black olivesย – 1 red onion – 15 gram fresh mint
Watermelon is myย go to snack during the summer; healthy, thrist-quenching and so tasty. This salad is fresh and light, perfect as a side dish during a picnic. Remove the seeds from the watermelon and cut it in small pieces. Crumble the feta, shred the onion and cut the olives and fresh mint. Take a large bowl and mix everything together with the olive oil and the lemon juice. Hmm, so delicious!

You need: 300 gram couscous – 1 redย paprika – 1 orange paprika – 2 onions – 1 aubergine – 1 courgette – 2 cloves of garlicย – 200 gram cherry tomatoes
This dish is not only delicious hot, but can also be served cold. It does require some preparation, so be warned ;) ! Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Cut the vegetables to small pieces and throw everything into a large plate. Add the garlic cloves; these are just for the taste. Sprinkle it with olive oil and place the dish for about 30 minutes in the oven. Put the couscous in a bowl and addย boiling water. The water should come above the couscous for about 1 cm.ย Cover the bowl and let it rest for 10 minutes. Add the grilled vegetables.

simple recipes for a picnic:ย Quinoa saladย with smoked salmon and green asparagus
You need: 250 gram quinoa – 3 tablespoons of sundried tomatoes – 300 gram green asparagus – 100 gram smoked salmonย – 2 teaspoons of lemon juice
