Out to Lunch
I'm pretty boring when it comes to what I fix for lunch and usually end up with the standard sandwich or oh, so gourmet option of Mac and Cheese. Today I was craving something different, so I pulled out a frozen salmon fillet and threw it in the oven with a brush of olive oil, lime pepper, salt and pepper. 12 minutes later I laid it over a bed of spinach, cucumbers, red bell peppers, avocado and sugar snap peas.
Now, if only I could top it off with an afternoon nap...

Fun lunch - I love a good lunch - yum!
I would give anything to top lunch off with an afternoon nap!
after preparing such a meal i think you deserve a little siesta!
I was wondering if I could invite myself for lunch?
I think you your lunch looks fab! By the look of this lunch I bet your sandwiches that you call standard would be more like a gourmet sandwich! Simply yum... looking!!!
mmm. my lunch usually consists of romaine lettuce with some marinated tuna. BOR-ING. can i hire you??
xo

Well Kelly, if sandwiches sound OK to you, I'm available for hire! This dish was quite out of the ordinary for me lunch-wise. At least your tuna is a healthy alternative to my Mac and Cheese :)
mmmm!!! you made that? I'm impressed.
Ohhh ... this is making me so hungry. It looks delish (though, I got to tell you, I can eat mac and cheese FOREVER. It may be the most perfect food ever- noodley + cheesey = mmm mmm mmm!)
Mmmmm as a matter of fact I was just heading to the market, I think I will make this as part of my dinner TONIGHT....yum i luv avocados.

ooo, yum. i'm really starting to get into avocados. xo
YUM. I'm about to have a can of soup of lunch. Not so yum.
Joyce, I made the mistake of asking Courtney if she wanted a sandwich when I was in the kitchen one day. Her reply, "Oh yeah, I would love one!" Me thinking no problemo, meat, cheese, bread, maybe a little mustard bada bing! OH it couldn't be that easy. Her reply, "I will have, lettuce, thinly sliced tomatoes, two slices of cheese, avocado, a tad bit of pesto and lightly toasted in the panini press" Need I say more :)....I think I love her more for that, b/c it got me thinking how I had been missing out!
Dang, Miss Gourmet! Looks deeelish. Perhaps I'll try this move on the offspring sometime soon.
that, my friend, is one delicious looking lunch, all my favorites on one place-mmmmmm!
Oooooh! That looks yum, yum, yummy! And super healthy!
What brand frozen salmon... Whole Foods by chance? I've been wanting to find/try to find a good frozen fish. Thanks!
Actually we buy the bags of frozen fillets from Kroger's and they are so so good! We typically buy Tilapia and Mahi Mahi, but I bought one bag of salmon for me since J isn't much into that fish. It tastes fresh and doesn't at all look or smell fishy. I love it!
That looks HEAVENLY! My lunch at home NEVER looks like that :(
Funny to see this salad. My husband who works from home has this for lunch all the time - one of his favorites. AND he manages to get the nap in as well. As I trudge off to my office job everyday, I am insanely jealous.
Just discovering your blog - great stuff!
Marie Louise: I'm so glad you stumbled upon my blog and the fact that your husband eats this everyday is pretty impressive!! I bet you have some pretty swanky dinners?!
