Home Lekkere superhealthy lunch: Freekeh met avocado en komkommer

Recipes

I mostly got a kick out of the name because I can’t pronounce it any other way than ‘friekeeeeeehhhhh’. Anyway, it took me a while to try this new product because I wasn’t sure what to make with it. The best things often happen by accident, I’ve noticed, and that was the case here: I threw in whatever I had in the kitchen and it turned out fantastic! I ate this cold for lunch, but you can of course also have it warm as a light dinner. Enjoy the freekehness!

Cooking mode Prevents your screen from going to sleep

Freekeh is an ancient grain that’s rich in fiber and protein. Together with the healthy fats from the avocado and the pumpkin seeds, this is a lunch that will keep you satisfied all afternoon. Adjust the spices to your liking for a personal touch.

Serve this salad immediately after preparing so the avocado stays nicely fresh. You can cook the freekeh a day ahead and store it in the fridge, making this lunch even quicker to assemble.
