(From canned food and leftovers)
From the fridge: Taco shells, Lettuce, Baby Spinach, Sour Cream, Clementine Orange.
Canned Stuff: Artichoke hearts, Rotel tomatoes w/chiles, Salsa, Creamed corn.
Served w/sweet tea.
I was looking for something for lunch that was fresh tasting and vegetarian friendly(lacto-ovo), and also use up some leftovers. So here is what I came up with. Breaking almost stale tacos shells in half and then in smaller pieces, I laid them on a plate. I saved some lettuce that was starting to wilt, and used the crisp part for the salad. A handful of fresh baby spinach on top of that. Then I nuked some canned artichoke hearts (a third of a can) for two minutes, and layered those. I used the last of a tub of sour cream, and put generous dollops on the salad. I used a half of a small can of rotel tomatoes w/green chiles, and a couple dollops of salsa. Topped it off with a third of a can of creamed corn, and added slices of a clementine orange for garnish. I had some store bought sweet tea to drink. Simple, yet pretty to look at. It was filling and felt less like a salad, and more like a main course.
