👩🏻‍🍳Recipe:

• 2 cans of Rio Mare Solid Light Tuna in Olive Oil
• 1/2 cup of rice (I used pearl rice here)
• Half a can of corn
• 3 hard-boiled eggs
• 2 pickles
• 3 tbsp yogurt
• 1 tbsp mayonnaise
• Chives
• Salt & pepper

In a bowl, add rice and two cans of Rio Mare Solid Light Tuna in Olive Oil. Then add diced eggs, diced pickles and corn. Mix mayonnaise with yogurt, salt and pepper. Add it all to the bowl and mix (or don’t mix if you prefer it that way) 🙂. Enjoy! 😋

Busy days are back, but meals can still be simple 🙌. This easy tuna rice bowl is one the whole family loves — and it’s ready so fast. Made with the delicious Rio Mare Solid Light Tuna in Olive Oil.

We had so much fun at #alightatnight @uppercanadavill , as always! 😃🧑‍🧑‍🧒🎄
We loved the Toy Train Ride 🚂, having some hot cocoa ☕️ and a little something to eat 🍔 at the Harvest Barn, and of course, seeing the Victorian Saint Nick 🎅 and all the beautifully decorated trees and buildings ✨. We also did some shopping at their Village Store and got some FRESH bread that we highly recommend you get one (or two like us) whenever you visit - it’s the best! 🍞👌

Did you know that walking pads offer numerous health and lifestyle benefits by promoting physical activity, improving cardiovascular and bone health, boosting mood and energy, and enhancing productivity through low-impact, convenient, and space-saving exercise that can be integrated into daily work and routines? 💚

I do like my walking pad, a lot! 🙃 The one I have is from (ca.walkingpad.com) @walkingpadca : R1 Pro Home Treadmill, which is actually 2-in-1 so you can either walk and/or run on it 🏃‍♀️.

Add mixed eggs with milk, salt and pepper into the pan, then peeled and diced tomato. At the end, add cheese and sprinkle it with some oregano. Let it all fry for about 2-3 minutes.
Next, put the pan into the oven (heated to 350 degrees) and let it bake for 10-15 minutes.

Enjoy! 🙃
