Lunch

Because you're stuck at the evil day job, doesn't mean you cant have a fun, healthy lunch. Planning, again. Anyways, for lunch on the first day, I decided to take a pic of each stage of my lunch preparation.

I got a few leaves of lettuce. It all depends on what lettuce you like. And a tomatoe. Make sure you wash them. Always soak your veggies in cold water for a few minutes before using them then rinse them in fresh water and let them drain. This should help to get rid of some of the stuff the spray on them before you bought them in order to preserve them--make them last longer.

Anyways, just make enough for one person. This way you just make enough so you don't over eat. Yes, it is possible to over eat on the good stuff too. Too much of a good thing and all that jazz. For me, I added tomato, lettuce and cheese. I am ADDICTED to cheese so I settled for just a small piece, just to add a little something extra to the lettuce and give it a bit of colour aside from green and red.

Once the salad is made, get your favorite dressing -  one table spoon full. For me its Fig Balsamic. This one is made by Kraft with extra virgine olive oil.  Drizzle it all over your salad. If you have it in a container you can cover, then cover it and shake it so the dressing gets distributed, otherwise use your fork and mix it up a little before you eat it.

With my salad, I had a half of cup of orange juice. You shouldn't cut out ALL juices, just the bad one...and never over indulge on them.
