It’s December, and cold, and the sun is out, and the kids are barefoot in the backyard. Somehow it’s lunchtime already and I haven’t had breakfast. It doesn’t matter if it’s my morning or midday meal because it will be the same thing regardless. The same old same old cheese toast but with a fresh and crisp locale.
Bread toasted and topped with melty cheese. Extra old cheddar is my go-to. Topped again with cherry tomatoes and sprinkled with black pepper. Served today with a cup of extra strong coffee and a liberal dose of December sunshine.

It is the fault of the cold weather. I have difficulty eating fresh vegetables when the ridiculously cold weather screams “Hibernate! Stuff your cheeks with calorie-packed goodness and go to sleep! I’ll wake you when it warms up.”. I listen to these histrionics all too easily, and then find myself deprived and craving greens.
Fill a large bowl with a bag of rocket, shredded carrot, quartered cherry tomatoes and diced avocado. If it’s really cold out, add some goat cheese so you don’t starve while tucked under the blankets waiting for spring.

Avocado. How do I love thee? Let me count the ways… Was Elizabeth Barrett Browning writing about one of my favourite foods? Probably not, but I will pretend she was, because I love it on salads, in guacamole, in wraps, in pasta, with a spoon, and on and on. Today, an everlasting love affair between avocado and tomato continues, in sandwich form.
Toasted GF bread slathered with mayonnaise, topped with tomato, avocado, and purple onion. A generous sprinkling of cayenne pepper adds some spice and a whole lot of deliciousness.

New camera! So exciting! A lot to read and learn, it’s like having an iPad built into a camera. Way too much fun.
My usually absent camera assistant was waiting patiently to try and steal my lunch. Toasted GF bread, thick cream cheese, purple onion shaved paper-thin, lox, capers, and lots of fresh ground black pepper. A side salad of halved cherry tomatoes with balsamic dressing.
I didn’t share.

I still haven’t found a fantastic GF sandwich bread, but this GF Romano bean bread makes great toast!
Topped with mayo, spinach, thinly shaved extra old cheddar, and a pile of halved tomatoes. Black pepper and voila!
