Some days it’s all about the presentation, and some days it’s all about getting it into your face ASAP.
Today was the latter. Toasted sourdough, slathered with cream cheese, topped with fresh cherry tomatoes, sprinkled with black pepper, and splatted with balsamic vinegar.
It has been a while since we’ve lunched together. I have been eating plenty of meals but remiss with my tales… sidetracked by the this and thats of life. It is time to get back on track. Better food, better writing habits, and better lunch companions. It’s nice to see you again. Let’s do this again soon.
Last night’s dinner tossed with some fresh fixings makes a hearty salad. Leftover quinoa, romaine lettuce, heritage tomatoes, and cucumbers all tossed into a bowl. Topped with lots of fresh crumbled feta (because cheese) and lightly sprinkled with balsamic vinegar. Enjoyed in the sunshine with a puppy. Hope to see you again soon.
My (super) mama is here for the week helping me get my shit together me get organized for the upcoming busy months. For lunch, we took a whole bunch of leftovers transformed them into a dee-licious salad.
In a small bowl throw in leftover quinoa and add the chopped veggies of your choice. We had snow peas, cherry tomatoes, Spanish onion, and orange pepper. Add balsamic dressing and mix well. Fill the bottom of a large bowl with fresh baby spinach, and top with the quinoa. Decorate with speck ham (leftover from mama’s fantastic Thanksgiving appetizer), and add shaved Romano. Share and enjoy!
