Who’s ready for lunch!?
Rarr.
I’m being lazy today. I did change from PJs to workout clothes, but I have yet to work anything out but my brain. Been busy working on odds and ends – a bakery conf. call, Travel + 2010 Highlights posts, writing project admin.
Hunger came on fast + furious at 1:30 and I was sitting down to lunch at 2.
Enjoyed a lovely, colorful Hugh Jass salad with the last of the Thanksgiving Day leftovers – one week later!
- Baby spinach, drizzled in honey and olive oil
- Lavender Salt
- Carrots
- Green pepper
- STUFFING!
- Turkey cubes
- A 1-inch piece of last night’s bleu cheese
- Walnuts (can’t get enough of ‘em lately!)
- Pepper
Plus H2O with lime.
Afternoon plans include more of the same, plus a body workout at the gym (and some biking!) followed by another dinner with Karen and a UVA event!

Kath says
🙂 Thanks for sharing
Angela @ Eat Spin Run Repeat says
Looks delicious! I have to say, I LOVE all the bowls you’ve been using lately! Do you actually have multiple ones of each or just one or two of each to keep photos interesting? I like switching it up but I feel kinda weird just buying 1 bowl or plate on its own!
Kath says
I have 1-2 of most – except for our standard white Pottery Barn wedding set.
Gabriella @ Embracement says
Still working on my leftovers too! Maybe tonight will be the last of them…
Kjirsten- Balanced Healthy Life says
haha I love that water glass! That would make any meal happy for me!
Allie says
You make me really, really want to try lavender salt!!! You’re lucky your left overs lasted a week too, my family ate ours in 3 days LOL 🙂
Jessica @ How Sweet It Is says
I wish we still had stuffing left. Love that.
Michele @ Healthy Cultivations says
Sometimes lazy days are the best days! Enjoy it.
Suzanne @ Continuing My Education says

I need to workout my body too! I worked out my brain baking a cake for my Pops this morning. Time to put those icing licks to good use 🙂
Stacy @ Every Little Thing says
Salad sounds great! I need to throw a bit of honey on my salads. I always forget it’s in the pantry!

I really can’t believe Thanksgiving was a week ago…wouldn’t have believed you if I didn’t look at the calendar 🙂
Laura @ Sprint 2 the Table says
I am not going to tell you how long it took me to figure out what “Hugh Jass” means… ’cause its just embarassing. 🙂
Have you run across any lavendar honey? It is really good with lavendar seasalt and melty blue cheese on crostini!
Marisa @ Loser for Life says
I’m not sick of Thanksgiving leftovers yet! We finished off the last of it for dinner and now I’m wishing for more 🙂
Kate (What Kate is Cooking) says
I wish I had still had leftovers! The only thing that remains in my fridge are some mashed potatoes. Not that I’m complaining, I do love them 🙂
Joanna says

Have fun with Karen and the event tonight 🙂

The nuts I can’t get enough of are raw almonds! I just LOVE them and have to restrain myself every time I’m around them:) Have fun tonight!
Kiran says
The mug is one of a kind 🙂
Camille says
I had one of those days yesterday. I literally wore my workout clothes from 6am-5pm and I never made it to the gym. Oh well! I think wearing the clothes burns calories, right? 🙂
Laura says
hugh jass. hehe. love it.
Amelia says
I used up the last of my T-day turkey today too…topped this brown rice salad with it instead of my usual go-to chicken: http://eating-made-easy.com/2010/12/02/brown-rice-salad-with-chicken-apples-and-pomegranate-arils/
Yum! p.s. love the use of “Hugh Jass”
Cara Craves... says
It’s morning where I live, but your salad makes me want lunch!
Hannah says
I love that mug – it’s so hilarious, every time I see it!
klm says
I have been a walnut whore lately!! This morning I had walnuts + mini marshmallows + mini bagel. Surprisingly delicious!
Sarah (Running to Slow Things Down) says
I love your leftover salad!! So much flavor in one big bowl. 😀
Jenn from Much to My Delight says
Can’t believe how creative you got with your leftovers! Stuffing in a salad–unheard of? And I’m so intrigued by your lavender salt. I’ve never heard of that, but I bet it tastes wonderful.
J3nn (Jenn's Menu and Lifestyle Blog) says
Glad I’m not the only one still eating leftover turkey! We had a 20 lb one for 3 people; I’ve eaten turkey everyday for a week, LOL.
Katy (The Singing Runner) says
You’re food always looks so great! It always leaves me inspired to make great food. 🙂
Amy at TheSceneFromMe says
Love that mug. Looks like something out of the Survivor show. Immunity Idol?
Lily @ Lily's Health Pad says
Someone please tell me where the Hugh Jass reference comes from. I see it everywhere!!
Kath says
MamaPea made it up, I believe!
Annie@stronghealthyfit says
Hope you had a great body workout 😉
Diana @ frontyardfoodie says
I want to eat more veggies now……you’re inspiring! That salad is to die for I’m sure. Somehow I end up eating loads of carrots and onions and forget about other things. haha
AnaDrol says
Very inspiring. Thank you for sharing.
