A lovely lunch
Happy Sunday! When you're skipping a meal (every day for months on end. It's called intermittent fasting), you start to become obsessed with food. (Starting?) I start planning lunch the minute I open my eyes in the morning (and sometimes that's at 3:30. I'm really BAD at sleeping). Since my brother gave us some croissants, I've been salivating more than Pavlov's dog.
Ideally, I'd love it with chicken salad, but...egg salad is almost as good. (With minced celery and chopped olives--and LOTS of mayo. I've found the best olive oil mayo is actually Walmart's Great Value brand. Costs less than the big brands and tastes better. Has almost half the calories of regular mayo, too. Commercial over.) I have just enough lettuce to put on the croissant, too. (Boy, have I been nursing this head of lettuce.)
We're having fried rice (with ham click the link for the recipe) for supper tonight. (I love it because you can make it ahead.)
What's on your menu today?

I'm halfway through a double shift. Lunch will be delivered by Jimmy John's (I'm addicted to their pickles) and there's an ice cream sandwich in the freezer for dessert.
Dinner will be garlicky smoked sausage sauteed with onions & Trader's Joes cruciferous crunch mix (kale, cabbage, & something I can't remember) and a side of Walmart's boxed 4 cheese gnocchi. It sounds weird to my friends when I tell them about it, but man, does it taste good to me! If I can't stay awake for dinner, it'll be made tomorrow.
