I’m about to head into a lunch meeting about blogging and social media possibilities for my office. Thank goodness for prepared-in-advance lunch posts!!!
Today’s fruit + vegetable feast….
The Lunchbox
Leftover tempeh orange stir-fry.
Super-easy-vegeatble-based lunch #2 = dinner leftovers.
We ran out of rice, but this is veggies + tempeh + orange sauce
Orange to go with orange!
Sunflower Cheddar. I <3 the cheddar flavors the most. Although second to Cherry Semolina, my new fav!
After lunch I’m walking over to the hospital (about half a mile away) for the afternoon and then walkign back when the workday’s over. Another beautiful day here in Charlotte so gotta take advantage! This is the most beautiful spring we’ve had. I think because last year there was some bad frost that killed all the trees? The forecast high for this weekend: 86*!!!!!!!!!! Crazy. I love warm weather.
Have a wonderful Wednesday!!!

That looks like a beautiful and well balanced lunch! Enjoy your blessedly warm weather. Sounds heavenly! Oh to be anywhere but NYC right now.
I wish NYC had that weather today! But I heard it is going to be an awesome warm weekend. I am also having leftover stir fry for lunch today-yum!
Yaay for a tempeh recipe – I picked up some more today and I was hoping for some new inspo on how to use it, thankyou!
Gosh, what beautiful weather it looks like you’re having (ie SUN!) – It’s cold and raining and windy here :’( I was out in my hat, gloves and scarf just now!!
That lunch looks so tasty! I have an orange too, but not as much orange as I had in my lunch yesterday luckily… Enjoy the beautiful weather!
We are having gorgeous weather as well. 77* and sunny. This morning the forecast said “Warm and abundantly sunny” which couldn’t be more perfect in my book
All the cool kids are eating tempeh today! Okay, you are. But I’m making tempeh tacos for dinner tonight too!
I need to get some Dr Krackers! They sound so good. It is gorgeous here – going to be in the 80s this weekend!
today is national oranges and lemons day. i love it when people celebrate the national food holiday inadvertently
happy wednesday, kath! xo
I tend to do that a lot!!
Seems like it’s not only preprepared lunch posts you could be happy about here, but preprepared (from leftovers) lunches! Double win!
I would say that is a meeting that you know a think or two about! Have a great meeting and enjoy the sunshine!
The cheddar on Dr Krackers is amaaaaaazing
Leftovers for lunch are awesome. Wow, 86 degrees is kinda hot!
I love visuals like that. Real foods I make at home are so much better.
I think its truly amazing that so many people eat things like lasagna or pizza and consider them “vegetable servings”… ridiculous!
That weather sounds amazing! At least it stopped raining here finally….
What a great well-rounded lunch! Another great one:)
I was just thinking I can’t believe how many trees are in bloom- I swear there weren’t this many last year!!
You always know how to make left-overs look fabulous! LOVE Spring!
that weather is amazing…you gotta love when you can walk around and it’s just the perfect temperature! also, i love your lunch
We’re having amazing weather too– FINALLY!!! Yay!
Do you eat lunch outside very often? That’s probably very enjoyable!
No, I mentioned in the post I was eating during a business meeting and prepared this post in advance.
Sun….yay!!
love ANY cracker with full sunflower seeds–how great would those be dipped in crunchy sunflower seed buttah?
I love the sunshine in your pictures
The bread looks glorious!!
xoxo
Maggie
Jealous of your sunshine!!
Lunch looks delicious!
Sounds like a great day, and a great lunch!
I was just at Earth Fare eyeing Dr. Crackers debating whether they were worth the $6. I’m guessing that’s a yes?
Come try mine!
AHh enjoy such amazing weather. Cannot WAIT for Central Park this weekend!!
Sara
I’m hoping and praying for a beautiful spring! It’s been a very rainy one but maybe that’s just b/c it is going to be so sunny and green come April! A girl can dream, right?
Hey Kath! (or anyone else who wants to chime in) My husband and I are traveling to Asheville, NC this weekend. I know you have been there several times, so I was wondering what restaurants you would recommend. Thanks!!
Go to The Laughing Seed for lunch! It’s my favorite in Asheville.
Rosetta’s Kitchen doesn’t have great ambiance, but the food is awesome. PB Tofu!!
Also love Tupelo Honey Cafe for dinner.
And Tressa’s for late night drinks + music.
i have never heard of tempeh…interesting will have to try that!
Great looking springtime lunch!!
Jenn
i had a pretty similar lunch of leftovers, except i had it for breakfast, and swapped my breakfast for lunch!
Hi Kath,
I love your blog so I am sending you an award!

I’ve tried oranges around the world and Florida and Cali have THE BEST. Australian oranges, while local, were absolutely abysmal. :/
Enjoy you’re walk! I’m jealous…It’s been a torrential downpour in Boston for almost 2 days!
I had the most amazing orange today too! Didnt quite match my lunch as well as yours but I enjoyed every bite!
I love Dr Krackers, and the cherry ones are one of my faves too. I love the contrast of the chewy cherries and the crunchy crackers. Yum!
Looks like you’re having G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S weather!! Jealous!
Your lunch looks so refreshing and delicious, not to mention I desperate want to try those Dr. Krackers now!!! And naturally I love your post title…….I just took about 5 oranges from my dining hall earlier today! =D
That would be interesting to hear more about the sodium research you are doing. I can’t believe it’s going to be 86 this weekend. I hope you are planning lots of activities.
A perfect seasonal spring lunch!
Like the idea of orange sauce on the vegis…..I must try it! Thanks!
I love eating outside…been awhile in doing it too. I dont know why I don’t since the weather is beautiful here in DC.
LOVE Dr. Krackers!!!! My favs are the seedlander snackers though. Love the pumpkin cheddar flatbread version!
This weather has been GLORIOUS! I’ve been studying inside waiting for my chance to get out (it’s killing me)
Katherine
Cherry Semolina is definitely my favorite Doctor Krackers flavor, especially with pumpkin butter!
