Deconstructed
Schedules have been a little hectic in our house lately, which means menu planning is not getting done. We’ve been having a lot of what I call “deconstructed” meals. Pick a protein (or two), grab whatever produce is on hand and try to get something balanced, filling and healthy on the plate. The amazing part is that when you cook with high quality meat and seasonal vegetables, you really can’t go wrong. Ingredients that appear not to go together can harmonize beautifully.
Lunch (pictured above) on Saturday was two types of chicken sausage (mild and spicy), large leaf spinach, sautéed bell pepper and onion, and a fried egg*. Seemingly random but delicious!
*Note: I’ve found that a fried or poached egg goes well on just about anything. I often put an egg on top of my greens and use the yoke as “dressing”. Yum!
