Lemon Herb Tuna & Lentil Power Bowl
Why this is peri-perfect… Tuna brings a solid hit of protein to support muscle maintenance and keep you fuller for longer, while lentils provide fibre and prebiotics that help feed your gut bacteria and support digestion over time. Yes - they’re high in fibre, but they’re also one of those “smart carbs” that can actually reduce bloating when used consistently. The lemon, herbs, and olive oil keep things light, fresh, and anti-inflammatory, while the crunch from cucumber and tomatoes adds hydration and volume without heaviness.

2 tbsp fresh parsley or dill
Dressing: juice of 1 lemon, 1 tsp olive oil, salt, pepper, pinch of cumin
