Today I made a wrap for lunch. I spread some Dijon mustard on half a piece of this spinach flatbread/tortilla thing, crumbled up a leftover salmon burger on the tortilla, topped it with some pickled carrots, and then I rolled it up. I had a Tupperware container of cucumbers and cherry tomatoes, so I brought that to work too. I also had some plain Greek yogurt, so I dipped everything in it. Was it good? Eh… it was edible. Would I eat it again? Probably.
The salmon burgers were roughly based on a Melissa d'Arabian salmon cake recipe (before they became leftovers), but I didn’t put any of that junk in there. I used 1 (14-ounce) can salmon, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and some eggbeaters (I don’t know how much, cuz I just poured some out of the carton). I also didn’t fry them. I baked at 400 degrees for 10 minutes, flipped them over, did 10 minutes more, then switched to broil for 2 minutes, flipped again and broiled for 3 more minutes.
The pickled carrots were roughly based on Aarti Sequeira's banh-mi vietnamese grilled pork sandwich recipe, but I used half the amount of sugar, didn’t put in any salt, and didn’t make the sandwich.
It does take effort to keep one of these things going...
ReplyDeleteIt’ll be especially hard to keep going when I run out of new recipes (or ingredients) & just start eating the same thing every day. Ha!
