Lunch: wholegrain crisp bread with sesame avocado mash and olives

Monday and Wednesday I don’t have to go to school since we have no lectures on those days. So I have been studying at home since I prefer to use my own computer, and I get to prepare really fresh and yummy lunches that keep me motivated. Here is today’s lunch, wholegrain crisp bread with sesame avocado mash made with lemon juice and garlic. Served with tomato, cucumber and olives. For dessert sliced green apple with cinnamon and shredded coconut, and to drink vanilla green tea.

If you can’t help yourself and you cannot just eat a couple, then you should consider not buying any. Olives are 87% fat, which makes them quite energy dense. At 6 calories per olive the calories add up fast and without the food providing much fullness.
