{Today’s Lunchbox} Un-Recipe Cooking

Thank you for all the great comments on Heather’s lunchbox yesterday. Wasn’t the lunchbox fabulous? Be sure to check out Heather’s blog Gluten-Free Cat.  Whether you eat a gluten-free diet or not, Gluten-Free Cat has lots of delicious foods.

When things get really busy in our household, one of the first things my husband and I forsake is cooking from recipes. Maybe it is because we are both lawyers and we just get sick of following directions in busy time (ok, fine, maybe that statement is just about me), but if things are busy, we turn into those people who assemble meals based on what is in the fridge and what pairs up. Nothing complicated.  A lot of salads and quick sautees. This lunchbox contains a couple of examples of the later:

• White beans, cooked in the rice cooker, then sauteed with garlic, celery, onion, carrots and some kale.  This is similar to another white bean recipe I have on my blog, made with sage.
• Sauteed creminis, with just extra-virgin olive oil and a bit of sea salt
• Chia juice pulp crackers
• Almond Butter Chia Pudding – the recipe for this forthcoming on April 9, as part of the April in the Raw event, created and hosted by Brittany of Real Sustenance.
