With the heat we feel like eating fresh foods that don't only hydrate us but also contribute valuable nutrients for the organism. An example of food during this time is salads but you can choose one from a large variety. We will now teach you how to prepare an asparagus salad.

Cook the potatoes and eggs until they are cooked. Once they are ready we need to chop them and place them in a container.
Next we need to chop the rest of the ingredients except for the asparagus which we will add whole, once everything is chopped mix and add olive oil and vinegar to taste.
Nutritional note
This salad is a good solution for hot days since it is served cold. The ingredients we will use have a high liquid content; therefore they will contribute perfect hydration.
The egg and tuna will provide us a high protein dose and will help us achieve muscles in perfect conditions. On the potato side we will have high doses of carbohydrates, necessary to get energy and be able to face daily activity.
The vitamin content is high, necessary for correct organism function. Same happens with mineral contribution, which is high, especially potassium in asparagus and that helps us purify our organism.
The diuretic effect they exert in our body is elevated, aiding us in liquid elimination and keeping a perfect body balance.
To all this we need to add the low caloric contribution it will provide, which makes it an ally in weight control and slimming diets. In addition, its fiber contribution is elevated and this will help us keep our body in perfect conditions.
