I’ve been productive today but I’ve gotten nothing done! The only major accomplishments were a workout and making lunch (and dinner!!!!!!!! which is marinating), but I need to get on the ball these next 3 hours. And I have two conference calls – gah!
I biked to the Y with lots of energy for a late-morning workout. I spent 40 minutes on the ET, then biked back home and did the C + K 10 Minute Challenge.
Then I was more than very hungry for lunch!
I made a wrap with leftover Siesta Salad
And a watermelon, blueberry, goat cheese + romaine salad tossed in Berry Balsamic Vinegar and Lemon Olive oil.
This vinegar came from Dean + Deluca – love it!! It’s nice and syrupy just how I like it.
How to cut a watermelon in cubes: 1) Cut a bisectional round 2) Cut off the “cheeks” to form a square 3) Cube your square
Gotta run!!!!

I love to use leftovers as lunch wraps the next day. It’s one of my favorite things. It’s like they always taste better on Day 2 to me. Your watermelon is so vibrant. Aren’t you thrilled summer is finally here?
That’s pretty much EXACTLY what’s on my menu tonight for dinner – a leftovers burrito! Looks delicious as always Kath
What an awesome way to use those leftovers! Looks delicious!
Enjoy your afternoon!
I’ve never cut a watermelon that way. Thanks!
The watermelon tutorial was great! I was really struggling to cut my giant watermelon the other day. I ended up with juice and seeds everywhere!
The wrap looks fabulous and it sounds like the perfect compliment to an intense workout!!
I have never thought to put watermelon on a salad. It sounds refreshing, I need to give it a try!
great looking wrap! any wrap with avocado in it looks good to me. I love the idea of that salad and that balsamic sounds great.
Mmmmm what a fabulous salad idea – watermelon and goat cheese – absolutely delish!
Good advice about the watermelon cutting! I’m still nervous to cut mine… it is too big for my cutting board and I’m scared the knife will fall off the watermelon and slice my granite countertops!
Sounds like my day too.. all I’ve done is work out and I ran an errand but I still feel sooo unproductive lol
What a gorgeous lunch!! Love what you did with the watermelon. Looks yumzzzzz!
Have a great rest of the day!
Everything looks delicious…I love the watermelon in the salad!
Wow that lunch looks great, the mix of ingredients in the wrap must have been delicious!
Thanks for the watermelon tutorial! Usually I just stick a spoon in it.
That taco looks soooo divine. I have been craving avocado like a crazy woman lately!
That lunch looks voluminous and delicious!
You must go through a ton of blueberries! That salad is loaded up with them. Yum!!
watermelon + balsamic vinegar – what a lovely combination! keeping that one in mind. I swear, the possibilities when it comes to food combinations are absolutely endless!
That salad sounds FANTASTIC!
What a filling lunch!
very summer-y
Yum, I am copying!
LOL, you are so dear how you flower-petal your avocado.
Srsly tho, that wrap looks fantastic.
I hope to hear good things about your bakery future!
SO colorful! The wrap and salad look awesome, especially the wrap! Yum

Watermelons are so hard for me to cute for some reason. Thanks for your watermelon cube tutorial!
Perfect summer salad! So refreshing
Beautiful wrap and salad! Love all the colors!
Leftovers are MEANT for wraps the next day! (Unless it’s leftover pasta…or pizza…or cake…ok, well you know what I mean!!)
For some reason, I’ve always stayed away from lots of fruit in green salads, but your combination of watermelon/blueberries/balsamic looks great!. You’ve inspired me to try it
Also, I’ve been doing the C+K challenge and I really like it!
LOVE the salad! I always get the best meal inspiration from you!
I wish I liked fruit in my salad. They always look so pretty. I just never like the taste.
That Dean & Deluca balsamic vinegar looks AMAZING! I bet it goes really well with that delicious watermelon.
Mmm that salad looks delish! I know how you feel too, there is always so much to do, I am never done!
I never thought about adding watermelon to my salad before- it looks delicious and I can’t wait to try it! Thanks!
I love the idea of watermelon and goat cheese on salad. I’ve been experimenting with fruit on salad and definitely want to give this a try.
That salad looks incredible!!! It’s so summery!
You are such a pro at slicing avocados–you put me to shame with my chunky/mushy avocado messes.
What flavor of La Croix is that? I just got a 12-pack of the berry flavor.
Kath,
Your salad ingredients are so creative and the Berry Balsamic Vinegar on watermelon would satisfy anyone’s sweet tooth. Healthy and sweet? Perfect!
Emilee, Dean & DeLuca
This salad sounds SO good! I will have to try it soon!
