May 24 Lunch: Turkey Salad Sandwich + Corn, Bean & Mushroom Salad
Lake weekend! I got out of work early so I stopped by Metrofresh for a little lunch. Not a Paleo lunch, but a wholesome one. The sandwich was a pimento cheese turkey salad with mixed greens on a jalapeño cheddar roll; the salad was a corn, butter bean and bacon salad with mushrooms and roasted garlic dressing. Yummo.
Have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend, y’all!
May 23 Lunch: CFA Cobb Salad
This salad is the shit. I had a lunch meeting today and had to remind myself that I wasn’t sitting in my cube and that I had to eat with a bit more dignity than I might were I by myself. Don’t judge.
May 20 Lunch: Leftover Paleo Fettuccine + Meat Sauce
Get the Cappello’s grain-free, gluten-free pasta here. You’re welcome.
May 19 Lunch: Pesto Egg Salad Wraps
I had this recipe on my Paleo Foodlust Pinterest board forever so I finally got the ingredients to make it. I love the concept of using collards as a wrap - proof here and here - and this was another success. Maybe even the most successful because I didn’t get food/juice everywhere like the other examples!
I made the pesto a bit differently than the recipe calls for. I didn’t have near the amount of basil needed because it had really dried out. But I did have parsley so supplemented with that. Also, I just nuked my collard leaves - why bother with the stovetop? - the’ll steam up nicely if you wet them then nuke for 30 seconds.
April 18 Lunch: Veggie Trail Mix + Curry Tuna with Israeli Coucous
From Metrofresh.
May 16 Lunch: Pub Burger + Salad from Tap
A new team member who I will be working with a lot started at work today, so we took her out for a welcome lunch. People always talk about how tasty the pub burger is at Tap so I decided to try it and man - that was really good. And they serve it with a milkshake shot- how cute!
