The baby is sleeping…so I can squeeze in a quick post.
I wanted to show you what I ate for lunch today, it took less than 5 minutes to prepare and it was delicious and healthy!
I made a turkey sandwich which consisted of:
- 2 slices whole wheat bread
- Applegate Farms turkey breast
- 1 Light Laughing Cow wedge
- Dijon mustard
- Romaine lettuce
- Roasted red peppers
On the side I had cole slaw that I made for dinner last night using this recipe – I highly recommend it! I made a few changes – I omitted the onions and peppers (didn’t have any) and used less oil and sugar. I also enjoyed an organic peach from my CSA. Actually a lot of the food was from my CSA: romaine lettuce, cabbage and the peach!
I love this meal because it’s high in fiber (whole wheat bread, lettuce, peppers, cabbage, and the peach) and high in protein (turkey). It’s full of color which means it contains a wide variety of nutrients and will keep me full do the combination of protein and fiber! Add in deliciousness and it’s a winning combo!
If I can make a healthy lunch in minutes with a screaming baby in my arm – you can too!
