One of the major problems that our generations have to deal with is : obesity . This issue may be linked with the fact that we do not have so much time to say home and prepare our meals ; let’s face it : it is much more simple to go out and grab something to eat in your way even if most of the time we end up eating fast food – such unhealthy food and with a high level of calories . And obesity besides the fact that changes your body in an unpleasant way it is also unhealthy .
Because of this matter , there have been developed all kind of recipes and eating plans so that we maintain under control our weight and to have healthy eating habits .

Put the lemon juice , oil , mustard , salt and pepper into a large bowl . After you had put the steak into a large dish , pour half of the resulted dressing above . Then prepare the salad by chopping the lettuce , cucumber , tomato and then add the remained dressing . Broil the steak in a pan for five minutes on each side . In the end , put meat and salad into each pita . This contains 400 calories but it contains only 16 g of fat and it is perfect for lunch time .
For dinner , you can try a lighter dish such as Green Eggs and Ham Frittata .
