I bought a bum bag of organic salad mix this week. It did not look appetizing for lunch, so I just pulled everything tasty looking out of the fridge and chopped it up. Here’s what went into the lunch salad:
Half-can of tuna, 1 hard boiled egg, a couple pieces of cauliflower, a few broccoli florets, a carrot, 1/2 a stick of celery, 1/3rd an avocado. I diced up all of that and added some avocado oil, 1/2 T of apple cider vinegar, copious amounts of salt and pepper and turmeric, stirred it all up and nom nom nom. You can see a picture in my Instagram feed to the right.
In fact, it was so tasty that I repeated it for supper, less the tuna & egg and plus grilled chicken. Very delicious. I couldn’t eat it all, and I’m already looking forward to tossing the whole leftover mess into the frying pan tomorrow morning with some coconut oil for breakfast.
On Sunday I spent maybe 45 minutes cutting up cauliflower, broccoli, carrots, & celery. I feel bad using a bunch of plastic bags for this, but it makes life sooooo much easier during the week. Plus, as Tim says, we’ve already done our part to protect the environment by not having kids. Anyway, I take a baggie to work with me too, and instead of hitting the vending machine for a Take 5, I hit the fridge for some carrots. It really helps stave off the cravings.
