A New Mix

For lunch today, I passed up my beloved Turkey for my Simple Changes September commitment.  Knowing we are having meat for dinner tonight kept me strong though.  It also forced me to be creative.  You see besides the turkey (and fried ravioli), there was nothing good to eat today.

I decided to get a little crazy at the salad bar today.

My salad contained:

• Spinach
• Romaine lettuce
• baby carrots
• onion
• mushrooms
• red pepper
• feta cheese
• cheddar cheese
• tuna
• chickpeas

I dressed this beast with olive oil and red wine vinegar

Oh my gosh.  Amazing.  The feta cheese sealed the deal – it was salty and really brought out the other flavors.  The onion was a bit strong but I had no meetings for the rest of the day so I went for it. 

I was disappointed to find my favorite Honey Wheat pretzels were sold out, so I went for an English muffin with buttah.

The right one was a little burned – that’s cause it got stuck in the toaster and I had to fish it out with my knife.  My heart kinda raced a little – I thought it was going to catch on fire!

Back to work – enjoy the rest of your day!
