Looking
for quick, easy, healthy and hearty lunch options? Me too! I love chips and a
sandwich, but variety is key to preventing “brown-bag boredom”! These three food
bowls are well-traveled -They have been transport-tested, workplace approved!
Here we go!

Falafel with Black Rice
and Goat Cheese
When
I was a young college sophomore, I tried vegetarianism for about a year. Every
day, for lunch, I made a falafel sandwich in my dorm community kitchen: A fried
falafel patty, tomatoes, mustard, and white bread. It was delicious! So,
falafel will always have a special place in my heart. Moving on from the
sandwich, here I make falafel balls, and pair it with this interesting rice.

| goat cheese to taste. It gives it a nice bite and creaminess. |
Amaranth with Mushrooms,
Spinach and Almonds
Amaranth
is a wonderful grain, very filling, and full of protein, vitamins and minerals.
The first time I tried it, I didn’t like the taste, but it has grown on me, and
I like to experiment with it. Lots of salt and pepper in this one.

| lunch in the park, anyone? |
Potato with Eggs and
Meat
For my meat and potatoes crowd - I love a nice skillet-fried potato with my eggs. I’m not a big pork fan, so I threw in some ground beef. Don’t forget the pepper :)

| Eggs travel well. They were scrambled, fridged, and warmed up the next day, |
Verdict? Thumbs up to the
potato and falafel bowls! I believe I prefer a plain amaranth bowl. Next time,
I’ll take it plain, with a side of raw veggies.
Thank you for reading! A couple mentions, and
then my heroes: For the latest and greatest in restaurant reviews, check out
the Tallahassee Food Blog. And, check out this Pho Bowl from Stripes, Gingham
and Ginger. What a great picture! I can practically smell the broth from my
screen! Looks like a delicious dish, as
we celebrate the transition to cooler temps.
