Since I go back from vacation and got into my daily work routine I finally also caught up with working out regularly and cooking healthy.
Since I work from home and make my own schedule I try to match my body’s rhythm and work part of the day and then again in the evening. This means that I get up later and go to sleep later, thus I eat my dinner quite late. For example, today I ate my dinner at 10 pm after working out for an hour.
Since it is very important to eat (protein) within half an hour after working out I like to have or cottage cheese with a small spoon of honey for dinner or tuna salad. I don’t mean that tuna salad you get in restaurants with fattening dressing and mayo but healthy kind. 
Now, I am sure there are gazilion ways to make tuna salad, but I would like to share some of my favorites. I usually make the one for which I have ingredients at home and I never eat it with bread but rather substitute with plain rice cakes, multigrain tortilla wrap or a cucumber.
Once I make the base of tuna salad (and I make a bigger quantity) I keep it in a fridge for 2-3 days and combine it with different ingredients for delicious protein full meals.
