It’s time for a mid-winter’s lunch
Lunch is my favorite meal of the day and with a little bit of preparation you can have great lunches all week long. Sandwiches, salads, bagels, wraps and much more. I’m going to create three flexible recipes that can be put on a variety of delivery vehicles. You can take these combinations and put them on bread, bagel, in a whole wheat tortilla wrap or even pita bread. You can put them with chips and some nice flavored water, lemonade, or iced tea. If you’re near a fridge at work or at home you can keep these handy and prepare them in advance. Don’t be afraid to get inventive with your favorite flavors. I’m always in the kitchen inventing and such.
Cameron’s BLT
I don’t like the T in BLT, so not being a tomato guy I replace the tomato with a few slices of onion and a slice of cheddar. Obviously, you can keep the tomato if you wish, but non-tomato people can use my little variation.
Cameron’s Tiny Italian
Italian sandwiches can be complicated but I’m simplified it to three truly Italian ingredients:
Pastrami
Ham
Salami (hard or genoa)
Salt and pepper it and add oil if you wish. I’m not a lettuce or tomato person but go ahead with the veggies if you like!
Cameron’s Cream Cheese/Butter
Take some cream cheese and take your favorite flavorings I like cheese, cilantro, and bacon. Alternatively, you can take butter and with onion powder, garlic powder and some roasted garlic. You can fold that into butter and butter all kinds of good bread products. Top with cheese or other good toppings and you have a lovely low calorie lunch item.
Enjoy! And remember the valuable things in life like good food, good friends and good conversation.
