What to eat on Mondays? A good rule of thumb is to follow a meatless monday , an initiative that is having great success abroad, and which consists of making a lunch and dinner without meat on Mondays (or fish) but with light vegetarian or vegan alternatives.

These alternatives are not only light, but also very satiating and are used to recover after an often excessive Sunday to restart during the week with a healthier and more balanced diet.
