You can have lamb's lettuce in combination with salmon and hazelnuts in the form of salad and top it with a flavourful dressing. For dressing, mix together the juice of 1 orange and 1/2 tablespoon each of sherry vinegar and chopped hazelnuts. You can add a bit of hazelnut oil as well.


This nutrient-dense lunch option is sure to be loved by kids and adults, alike. So, combine all these ingredients in a bowl and your healthy lunch is ready to be savoured.
