1 1/2 cup of flat leaf parsley finely chopped

3 tbsp lemon juice

1 tbsp mint finely chopped

1 1/2 tbsp chive

4 medium sized tomatoes chopped

I eye balled the olive oil as I don’t like things swimming in oil. I may have put a tbsp of olive oil

I added in avocado

Weekly meals

As a vegetarian/vegan this is generally what i eat every week.  It is always quinoa with some sort of peas/beans and a vegetable.  I hate to cook so this is basically what i can handle :-).  I have tried loads of recipes and they have ended up in the bin. Needless to say I basically stick with what I know.
