[tease] Lunch Menu

Today for lunch, I'm having a salad and soup.

I got the salad at a local grocery store's salad bar. All fresh, all nummy. Iceberg lettuce, raw broccoli, black olives, green olives with pimentos, marinated mushrooms, baby corn. Creamy balsamic dressing.
The soup was from the same place; rosemary chicken with white beans. Good stuff.


What did -you- eat for lunch today?

It's 8:30am, I'm just eating my brick of oatmeal. No plans for lunch yet, probably going home and eating left over frittata.

No clue - every day is a challenge since we moved offices. I went from having about thirty choices to having about eight. *cries*

I should go back to bringing my lunch...and now that I think about it, we had left over pork roast, AND meat loaf that I could have made awesome sandwiches from...*sigh* guess I need to move my alarm up another ten minutes...

I cheated this time around and used the Tuna helper, just added frozen broccoli at the begining. oh, and extra parmesean cuz i luvs the stuff!

To make from scratch, you cook up whatever noodles you prefer (I like whole wheat rotini - one box worth) about half way done (otherwise they get mushy). in the cass dish mix up a can of cream of mushroom soup, about a 1/4 of parmasean (real is best, but the spaghetti aisle version works!), about a cup and a half of broccoli, one can of tuna fish (drained) and about a 1/4 of milk. mix in the noodles, pop in the oven at 350 for about half an hour (it'll get a little brown around the edges). take it out, pop on a little more parmasean, let it sit for 5 minutes and you're good to go!

this is one of the recipes you can substitute to make it as healthy or not as you want!

Tuna in anything other than salad or sandwiches just doesnt cut it for me, but that recipe sounds like it would work every bit as well with chicken, and I just may give it a try. That would also be something I could package and freeze individually, for lunches! Thanks Fyre!

my sister prefers the chicken - and you can use a different cream of whatever soup, different veggies - it's got great versatility! (and takes mere minutes to toss in theh oven!!)

Lunch was cafeteria burrito with spiced kidney and garbanzo beans, salsa, black olives and romaine lettuce with a side of rice and salsa. I then came to my desk and had a Biscoff cookie. mmmm

Makes me wish I had not skipped breakfast as I am hungry again already.
