Lunch

Yesterday Eric and I went grocery shopping after dropping the little one off at school. While at Safeway, I purchased about 1/2lb of sliced roast beef for sandwiches. Normally we buy our sandwiches from the deli with our chips and drink, I just didn't feel like waiting in line.

When we got home, Eric made our lunch. Toasted bread, mayo, mustard, the roast beef and GASP! I FORGOT THE PICKLES! Dang it.

I must say, the roast beef was really good! So good that my meager sandwich didn't compare to the sandwich I was building in my mind.

I thought of lightly grilling some onion slices, grabbing some sourdough bread and making an open face sandwich! My plan kind of goes like this:

* Sourdough bread slices
* 1 lb sliced roast beef
* grilled onion
* pepper jack cheese slices

Preheat oven to 350

Place sourdough bread slices on foil lined cookie sheet.

Spread some mustard on top of sliced bread.

Place some roast beef on top.

Followed by onions and pepper jack cheese.

Broil! OH WAIT! How bout a green chile on top? MMMmmmm! Now that my friends sounds good! (I will post of picture of this when I actually make it!)

Lunch


Well if you know me, I don't really watch what I eat! No calorie counting here! But when I stepped on the scale the other day and saw that I was 7 lbs less than I was two weeks before.... I kinda changed things up a bit!

Today for lunch I am having some soup. I am trying Progresso's Lite Zesty Santa fe Chicken soup. This is amazing! Great flavor! As I sit and eat, I can't help but think I should throw in some pepper jack cheese and slices of fresh avocado! Served with some chips and salsa on the side maybe. (I told you I like to eat!)

Glass of ice water with lemon to go with.
