Boxed Lunch

I went to the salad bar at the grocery store since I didn't have time to go home today for lunch. I put together what I think is a really nice "boxed lunch". Using a takeout container with 3 sections, I made a nice little salad with some veggies plus a little oil and vinegar, some olives (for healthy fats) and a little cottage cheese topped with strawberries. To make the berries a little extra special, I put some fresh ground pepper and balsamic vinegar on top. If you have not tried this before, don't be put off - take a risk and try it! Consider how good tomatoes are like this - tomatoes and strawberries are very similar in a number of ways. At least just try one or the other - maybe the pepper only? It makes for a really unique dessert and that little something extra makes it even more special. A little dark chocolate is the perfect finish for such a light (but yummy) lunch:)
