You are here: Home / Weekend / Lunch at Crisp: 3 for 3!

December 20, 2007

Lunch at Crisp: 3 for 3!

Another delicious lunch at Crisp!! I’m so sad (I just typed salad instead of sad!) that this place isn’t near where we live and I’m almost done with my job uptown. I’m not sure if we’ll ever think to drive up on a Saturday for lunch here. I’m going to try to get one more lunch in before my last day of work – Jan. 4th.

Today they had a special of pesto tilapia to go on the salads, so of course I skipped the roasted turkey in favor of a delicious fish! It was GREAT!!!! I logged this as 1 serving of Wegman’s cooked tilapia plus half a tbsp of prepared pesto.

On my salad:

  • Baby spinach
  • Mixed greens
  • Carrots
  • Bell peppers
  • Grilled portabella
  • Cucumber
  • Reduced-fat feta (I asked 🙂 )
  • Raisins (which really MAKE a salad!)
  • Honey-dijon dressing (on the side – I had about a tsp)

I didn’t eat the toasted slice of bread photographed, and I saved the apple for a little while. Also had unsweet tea to drink!

Here are some of the veggies on the bottom:

The husband got the corn chowder, which I passed on because I knew it would be made with heavy cream (and it was!!). I had two bites – it was AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! This place is three for three on salads and soups!! I’ve had their split pea soup and beet soup and both were fabulous, although both were also made with heavy cream.

Lunch calories (including un-eaten apple to be eaten soon): 477.

No walk today – I was too cold when I got back from lunch to go back out there.

Emergency

While we were there a woman fell to the ground, her salad tossed in the air, and started convulsing. The husband called 911 while a doctor went to assess her. She had just had surgery at a hospital nearby (out patient) and was really weak (or something from the surgery). The ambulance came and everything. It was quite scary and I lost my appetite (but it was towards the end of lunch). So I saved my apple to have around 2pm.

Camera Case

Check out my new camera case!! Since I carry it around everywhere, it’s gotten a little beat up and this guy has a hard exterior so it’s extra-protected. I can’t fit my cord in it (darn it!) – well actually I can but I have to STUFF it in there and feel bad for the camera. But my NEW laptop for back-to-school has an adapter slot to put in a camera card so I’m getting an adapter for that and will hopefully just carry around the tiny adapter to load the photos on my computer. But I love this case because it’s bright green!

    I just started reading the blog, and I love it. I was just wondering where you found your camera case. I always carry my camera too, and it gets so scratched up! That looks like it's exactly what I need. Thanks for all of your hard work.

    Thanks Jenna!!

    Kristin,

    Case is from Amazon. You can find it here <a>href="http://www.amazon.com/Protector-Carrying-Cyber-shot-Cybershot-DSC-W100/dp/B000RBUDPE/ref=pd_bbs_2?ie=UTF8&s=apparel&qid=1198181981&sr=8-2&quot; rel="nofollow">

    I'm loving the case and that is exactly what I was looking for as well so thank you for the link!

    Have you read any of Nigella Lawson's healthy eating books? I have heard a lot about them and am looking for a few good reads over the holiday; care to recommend anything in addition to the three you mention in your reading section?

    I LOVE your blog because I am a healthy volume eater as well. I love your oatmeal pancakes and have been making them for breakfast as well as a snack at night.

    If you get an iPhone, you can use it to photograph your food. I do that a lot so I don't have to carry around another camera. I can just email the picture to my email account from the phone. =) Just another idea.. hehe

    Kath, I tried adding curry powder to a tuna sandwich today and it was great! That is a wonderful idea that I can tell patients who are on 2 gram sodium diets (which are the worst!).

    Thanks!

    Brooke

    Sara,

    I haven't read her books but will look out for them. I'm slowly working my way through nutrition books. I have a few more listed in the Amazon store, but those are all the ones I have read off the top of my head. I'm hoping to read more Dr. Weil and the Harvard book too – but I forgot the name. I have too much to read!

    Lucy,

    Glad you like the blog! I'll get an iPhone if you pay for it 🙂 We're tight on funds right now with me going back to school, so I don't think that's on my to-do list. But it would be convenient!

    Brooke,

    Glad you liked the curry!! I think it adds so much flavor to bland tuna. And great your patients will benefit too.

    Kath
