My creation for lunch this afternoon was greatly influenced by my dinner from last night. After we all had an exhausting Sunday afternoon, filled with too much drama and frustration appropriate for a sunny day, I decided to cook a comfort meal. Chicken thighs marinated in lemon, rosemary, balsamic and red pepper flakes and oven roasted vegetables. I purposely cooked extra for my salad today, which was basically all of that on top of a bed of arugula and some fresh tomatoes. It took all of 5 minutes to assemble and then another 5 to gobble it all down. Actually for a salad, this was quite filling and kept me full until about 4 in the afternoon. Job well done!

Last Salads of Summer
As autumn officially sets in here in lower New York state, salads are being more and more of a thing of the past. This last Sunday my roommates and I went to a local farmers market in Rye. I ended up finding some delicious looking arugula and couldn't help myself.
