When the spinach mix is cool, stir in the crème fraîche. Cut the filo sheets in half. Lay one of the filo sheets on the worktop with the short end facing you. Brush all over with a little of the remaining oil. Layer up 4 more of the filo sheets in the same way, brushing each with a little of the oil. Lay one of the salmon fillets across the width of the filo, positioning it about one-third of the way up. Season it with pepper. Spoon and spread half the cooled spinach mix over the top of the fillet.

HEALTHY SNACKS Pop Corn Popped corn is mostly air and gluten free. It contains less calories than crisps and makes it a healthier alternative. It s a whole grain which means a great source of fiber. If you re little hungry in between meals then this is the perfect light snack. Crudites, Hummus This is a veggie option for snacking and including hummus, carrots, celery and radish. It can also be other vegetable types such as tomatoes, cucumber or some olives. This is great to fight the 4PM afternoon slump. Crudites, crackers This is a similar option than the veggie one but including some rice cakes or crackers and goat cheese. This is if you are more hungry than usual. For example, it happens during menstrual cycle where the body needs more fuel.

HEALTHY SNACKS Yoghurt, fruit This is a fruit and nut option. Snacking can be salty or sweet, it s your choice as long as you get varied foods in the body.
