The Old Standby

October 28, 2009 by Julie 9 Comments

When I first entered the working world, my lunches severely lacked variety. I would eat turkey sandwiches or wraps or a pizza Lean Pocket almost daily. I now get sick of the same foods over and over again.

This morning, however, I was craving my old standby: a turkey sandwich. I made my sammie on a whole wheat Arnold sandwich thin with oven-roasted ultra-thin turkey breast.

Old Faithful

I topped it with dijon mustard, mushrooms, spinach and sliced plum tomato.

I forgot just how darn delicious a simple turkey sandwich can be! This throwback meal hit the spot.

Your Good Deed for the Day

In support of breast cancer awareness month,  click here to give FREE mammograms to women. With each click, sponsors will give out one free mammogram. What an easy way to make a difference!

Question: What’s your go-to lunch?

    I take my lunch to work every day, too. My go-to lunch is a big salad with a bunch of random veggies and ingredients from the fridge! A lot of times I’ll top the salad with leftover veggies from last night’s dinner, rice, or whatever else I can find..yum 🙂

    Sometimes the simplest things are the best! Your sandwich looks great! My lunch is usually a wrap.
