Cookin' [Part 2]

Food I Just Put Together

Salmon Sandwich

It was exceptional!  It was so easy and took very little effort.  For how simple it was I was shocked at how tasty it turned out. 

No, this is not a salmon burger, it is a salmon sandwich made with a salmon burger patty...
work with me here. 

Try to put aside the the un-photogenic plate 

we have and check out my lunch!

All I did was get a salmon burger patty we get from Costco, cooked it then mashed it up. 

Stuck that on whole wheat toast and added garlic and capers to the other side.
I used Costco's Jalapeno Yogurt Dip as the spread on one side. 

You can't forget the peas.

Lunch For Work

I have been trying really hard to eat healthy and bring healthy meals to work 

so I don't have to buy it. Here are some examples...

HUGE orange

Sandwich: Whole Wheat bread with a small chicken breast, mustard and lettuce.

Red grapes

Raw carrots
Quinoa and Brown Rice


The quinoa and brown rice mixture I have been using a ton lately is from Costco!
What would I do without that place?

Veggie Ball Pita
The other day I put together a very simple and interesting meal for lunch.
Costco's veggie balls, quinoa & brown rice, onions, and hummus all on a whole wheat pita.


Final Verdict: It ended up tasting really good. But I felt like it needed something.  So next time I will experiment with what I can add to make it better.  I was thinking a sauce of some sort...?

It looks gross, I know.  But I put 7 veggie balls on the pita after cooking them and put squished them onto the pits covered in hummus.


What kind of hummus you ask?

My camera phone would not focus or cooperate with me for this picture.

Fruit-Full Salad

It is absolutely delicious.  Summer always brings out my taste for fruit and salads so I combined the two in an awesome meal.

Spinach, Apples, Red Grapes, Carrots and Onions. 

Food is so good. What would we do without it?...besides starve. 

I remember back in my elementary school days people thought that by 2012 we would have invented some sort of pill to take to replace food completely.   That hasn't happened yet—but why on earth would we want that to happen?  Food tastes too good and cooking adds so much excitement and passion to our lives.  It'll never happen.
