Lunch

Lunches are a challenge for me. Most days I’m satisfied with a simple turkey sandwich & a handful of carrots. Once in a while I’ll get all fancy-schmancy with a tuna sandwich or maybe even something as exotic as a salad. I know, right? I quickly get tired of the same ol’ fare though.

A week or so ago I was perusing an older Cooking Light and found this recipe for Thai Salad with Peanut Dressing. To my delight, I had all of the necessary ingredients for the dressing. It was quick to throw together (toss in the blender and process until smooth). Then I dug through my produce drawer to see what I could use in a salad. I found some romaine, baby carrots, a red pepper, and some snap peas. Ta-da! Lunch. See, there’s really no reason to settle for pb&j. Again.
