A Quick Summer Lunch Tip!

Published: Tue, 05/30/17

Sandwiches for lunch during the summer? It's a rarity at our house for many reasons, but mainly because of the cost! Here's what we like doing several times each week at lunchtime:

We throw together a hearty salad with whatever meat and veggies we have on hand.

  • If I have taco meat on hand, we can easily make Taco Salad.
  • If I have bacon bits on hand, we can easily make BLT Tossed Salad.
  • If I have have ham on hand, we make chef salads which tastes awesome with this Ranch Dressing.
  • If I don't have any of these meats on hand, sometimes I make several pounds of taco meat or bacon bits just to have for salads.

This saves a lot of money compared to buying expensive lunch meat. And right now we're eating lettuce out of our garden, so that saves even more! It goes without saying that eating a lot of salad is great for our health!

What are your favorite salads? I'd love to hear from you and get new ideas!

Loving the greens,
