Give me a dot on the horizon and I'll start the sprint. Because that's how I am. Unfortunately, it happens to me more than once that I have to drop out with the tongue on the shoes halfway through. Exhausted and disappointed, I wave goodbye to my beautiful goal. I wanted too much and tried too hard, so I couldn't make it. Recognizable? Then read on quickly! Then I immediately explain the link with this super fast waldorf salad recipe 😉 .

A few years ago, “everyone” suddenly started running. Under the guidance of Evy, Renate or the local athletics club, my whole environment ran away from me. Verbatim happy. I wanted to join , so I got out a pair of old sneakers from the bottom of the closet and got to work. It seemed to me a wonderful feeling to be able to run and to combine it with a family as a sport. Unfortunately, I turned out to be a bit too fanatical and I soon ended up on the bench with an injury.
That's how it was with "better food". One day I decided that I wanted to change my diet and immediately started a study and a food blog. Another first removes only sugar from the menu, but no, I wanted the full package and turned everything around so I could chase this dream. In addition to sugar, other processed foods were cut, I started eating more vegetables and less meat and I limited eating bread.
I certainly don't think bread is the enemy. In fact, I LOVE bread. But I also see that with two sandwiches a day, a biscuit with the coffee and a plate full of pasta for dinner, we Dutch may have a little bit of variety. So nowadays I try to avoid the use of grains a few days a week. But what do you eat?
A breadless lunch can consist of leftovers from the night before (it saves cooking again), but also soup or salad. We regularly bake an omelet or a savory muffin for lunch. Nice! And this waldorf salad recipe is also great for lunch!
To make a long story short. Sometimes I want too much, try too hard and miss my goal. Except with this recipe for super fast waldorf salad. I threw some ingredients into a bowl and voila , a great breadless lunch ensued. My belly filled with a healthy bite and that with a preparation time that is almost shorter than spreading a sandwich. Highly recommended for all fellow sprinters and other runners as lunch or side dish!
Lunch dish for 1 person. Preparation time is five minutes, that should work, right?
Wash the celery and the apple. Cut it into equal parts. Cut the chicken breast into pieces. Place celery, apple and chicken breast in a bowl and stir in mayonnaise. Top it off with some walnuts; Enjoy your meal!
Do you ever run past yourself?
