For any of us that have busy lives, not every home cooked meal is going to be a pleasurable way to spend time, but the ripple effect of eating well, and the wellbeing that comes with that, can’t help but be appreciated over the feeling of grabbing something quick to eat in the car between appointments. I know each time I make the mistake of rushing any meal, I remind myself of just how wonderful it is to make the time to cook. Which is why, I always try to make lunch ahead, or at least have the components on hand to pull something together when time is of the essence. Nourishment shouldn't be compromised! -MB These recipes are perfect for mid-week lunches; simple, full of flavour, and just as good cold as they are warm: Sweet Potato Frittata with Fresh Tomato Salsa Pearl Barley Salad with Onion & Walnuts Roasted Winter Root Vegetables with Salsa Verde Baked Pear Salad with Belly Bacon and Walnuts
