The disgusting heat and humidity didn’t stop us from pickling a few balls in a steamy match I won 2:1 (all tiebreaks). Sustenance was in order.
Lovely Greek-Caribbean lunch of leftover jerk chicken and melidsanoshalalalalala from last night’s grillapalooza. The melidsanoshalada was even better after spending a night in the fridge & letting the flavors mingle.
Simple monochromatic lunch: green tomato salad (ripe, just a green variety with a touch of pink in the center) just a drizzle of French olive oil and a sprinkle of Maldon salt. Avocado bread - beautiful fresh country boule I couldn’t bear to toast, mashed half avocado, oil and salt as above plus a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Delicious and light!

I think the fact that I was patient enough to bake it, rather than nuke it, contributed a lot.
I made another chicken salad for my darling’s lunches, and he’s chowing down on a massive sammich as I type this 
Lunch at my desk. I sautéed red onion and green beans (long beans actually) from the farmers market added garbanzo beans I had in the freezer and oil packed sun dried tomatoes and some lemon juice. Made a big batch for multiple meals 
. Today I’m having it over a bed of butter lettuce and some cherry tomatoes because it’s tomato season!
Late lunch of chicken salad & avocado with a shprinkle of TJ’s hot and smoky chili powder. I love the combo of chicken & avocado on sandwiches as well. This would make a great one 
Dude, even your BLTs look amazing 
Salad at my desk again! Green leaf lettuce, golden beets, tropea onions, and goat cheese all from the farmers market. Dijon/sherry vinegar vinaigrette and cherry tomatoes!
Wonderful al fresco lunch with a friend from one of my local food/cooking groups & fellow breast cancer survivor, who wanted to take me out & treat me “just for being me.”
She chose the scallop salad I’d eyed originally,
but sans any breakfast I didn’t feel like salad for my first meal of the day. The scallops with Iberico ham, shishitos, Marcona almonds and saffron rouille sounded mo bettah.
‘twas a good choice.
The pasta king strikes again.
It’s Taco Friday. Same lunch as almost every Friday: a taco flight of two Cajun shrimp tacos and one roast pork.
My buddy’s still down with the crud, so I picked her up a flight & a quesadilla and dropped it off at her place.
There’s a rumor afloat that the taco guy is moving. This is terrible news.
Look good.
You make you own Pasta as well yes?
If you have never had it, it is very similar to Fettuccini but rolled much thinner and made with 100% Semolina and Eggs. No Flour or Water.
It is a really nice Texture and Flavor that really holds up well to the Ragù.
BBQ’d chicken quarters from a local farm. They only offer this a few Saturdays in July & August, and we missed out last year since we were in Berlin at the time.
Nicely seasoned, fall-off-the bone tender. Still needed hawt sawce 
A lonely COTC lingering in the crisper was shared.
Tasty and cheap meal: $5/quarter
