I'm one of those people who becomes pretty set in their ways about food--I know what tastes good, I know what's healthy, and I know what's convenient. Today I was grocery shopping at Trader Joes and headed straight for my staple items. Then I thought, "Wtf am I doing?" I of all people should know eating the same foods isn't good for your body. I ventured to try some new stuff, so came up with some recipes in my head as I was shopping--careful to study all nutrition labels first.
Here's what I came up with for lunch--simple, fresh, healthy--YUM
1 Can of tuna in water (no salt added)
2 tbsp cilantro dressing
1 tbsp caesar dressing
1 tsp lemon juice
1 cup butter lettuce and radicchio mix
1 cup romaine lettuce
fresh ground black pepper
1 piece of toasted whole wheat artisan bread
Mix tuna, 1tbsp cilantro, 1tbsp caesar dressing, 1/2tsp lemon, and black pepper. Mix lettuce with 1tbsp cilantro dressing and 1/2tsp lemon juice. Put tuna mixture on top of lettuce and eat with toast.
