july 31, 2012 lunch

leftover stovetop pork carnitas. i ate some last night for dinner too (with avocado! sadly, one did not make it into my lunch today), but it seems to have been consumed with no paparazzi in sight. today, though, a camera was ready and waiting and caught a bowl of citrus-y, cumin-y pork shoulder in the act of posing with a starlet of a salad.

july 21, 2012 brunch

let's see, what's in the fridge? leftover grilled chicken, topped with the zippy moroccan dipping sauce from well fed. yum! and some grape tomatoes and sliced cucumber. why not?

july 17, 2012 lunch

very similar to yesterday's, except i remembered to dress my salad (i didn't send it running naked out the door). tasty fuel for the rest of the afternoon!

july 16, 2012 lunch

today's lunch is chicken awesomeness, a salad of beet greens, mizuna, romaine, cucumbers, grape tomatoes, kalamatas and red onion, and a cup of green tea. but the chicken! the flavor and moistness certainly live up to its name: the best chicken you will ever eat ever. brining is key, and the solution to every overbaked, dry chicken breast i've ever eaten. a new favorite!

july 12, 2012 lunch

i think the eggplant and sausage strata is officially no longer a strata, but the flavors really came together over the last few days! it is served up alongside the standard salad from this week and a cup of green tea.

july 11, 2012 lunch

more of the eggplant & sausage strata for lunch, plus salad with our homemade mayo dressing. have i mentioned lately how devourable the eggplant strata is? i might get sick of eating it everyday at some point, but not yet. good thing - there is a lot of it!

july 10, 2012 lunch

tuesday lunch is butternut squash, kale and chicken sausage, plus a salad of cucumber, tomato, celery, roasted red pepper, carrot, romaine and arugula. the creamy italian dressing made with homemade olive oil mayo tops it all off.

july 9, 2012 lunch

we had some chicken sausage to get through (we usually bring some sausages as back-up camping food), so we sauteed slices of it up with kale and butternut squash. a tasty combination! for salad, we're branching out from the usual vinaigrette with a homemade olive oil mayo-based creamy italian dressing (another great recipe out of well fed), tossed with romaine, arugula, tomatoes, cucumbers, and celery.

june 26, 2012 lunch

today's lunch is leftover shrimp salad with hard-boiled eggs, purple cabbage, cucumber, tomato, and red onion in a lemon-dill sauce. it is easy and inexpensive and delicious, and just the right amount of food. it may not look like much, but it's filling!
