I feel like a kid again!




Today for lunch I was craving a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, so I made it happen. But, I made it happen in a healthy way! I got some organic all natural peanut butter and all natural organic mixed berry jelly and put it on a whole grain naan. What is a naan you ask? Naan's are super tasty. Naan is a leavened, oven-baked flat bread. I purchased the Whole Foods 365 brand Naan and am pretty pleased with the product.
I of course had to have a nice glass of organic milk with my sandwich! Satisfied my inner child.

'Tis the Time of Year for...Awesome Lettuce!


Okay, so I had been on a pita kick the past two days and as I had mentioned before, I was going to make a pita with baba ghanoush (did you know there are several different ways to spell this delicacy? How interesting!)
So I did make my pita with baba ghanoush which was super yummy. I loaded it with Earthbound Farm Organic Fresh Herb Salad...okay...this lettuce mix is SO good. I mean dynamite, bursting with flavor. The Fresh Herb Salad is Mixed Baby Greens with parsley, dill and cilantro! So many great tastes hitting your taste buds when you take a bite, and it is organic. You can make a great salad out of the Fresh Herb Salad, but I made an awesome pita sandwich. So here is what my sandwich consisted of...

Baba Ghanoush Pita

Ingredients:
1 whole wheat pita
1 cup of Earthbound Farm Organic Fresh Herb Salad (I went crazy with greens!)
1/2 vine tomato sliced
1/3 red onion sliced
1 laughing cow wedge
2 tablespoons of Baba Ghanoush
Salt and Pepper to Taste

Directions:
Cut the pita in half. Spread laughing cow cheese on the pita. Spread the baba ghanoush. Add the lettuce, sliced tomato, red onion and sprinkle on that salt pepper. Super fresh and satisfying.

PS...Can't wait to make a salad tonight with the Fresh Herb Salad :)

Whole Wheat Pitas...Where It's At


I am so excited for my lunch today! I love Whole Wheat Pitas. They are perfect for any kind of sandwich you want to make. I like pita because it is thinner than bread, so not as filling, but still fills you up just enough.
Today I have some lettuce, tomato, red onion, Laughing Cow cheese, salt and pepper, and leftover Lamb from Easter on my pita! Yummy...
Tomorrow I am thinking about making a Baba Ghanoush pita.

For Dessert, my favorite yogurt (as of right now) Stonyfield Organic Yogurt. The flavor is incredible, I mean you can literally taste the "naturalness" to it :)
