What is a tasty and healthy recipe to bring to my health and fitness class?

It can’t require the use of a stove. It can be a snack or a meal. One time we made trail mix and another time we made a black bean salad. It has to be healthy and really easy and simpe to make. It also has to be balanced in termas of the food pyramid and portions. I’ll check for that.

one of these?
