For example, I had about 10 minutes to make some lunch in between my meetings today. How easy is it to make a sandwich?
Take two pieces of bread. In this case, I had some sprouted spelt bread. Lay them out on a plate. Take one tomato, squeeze it to see if it's nice and ripe, smell the flavour. Wash it under warm water. I buy tomatoes on the vine, which are the closest to home grown that we have. Still not even close, but what can you do?
Slice it up, layer it on one side of the bread. Sprinkle a little sea salt and freshly ground pepper on it. I use rock sea salt in a salt grinder. Yummy.
On a spur purchase, I had bought some pea sprouts. They sounded spring-y and exotic somehow. Take a handful, wash them, shake them off, then place on the other side of the bread. It's looking good so far. The bread is already quite moist, plus the juice from the tomatoes meant I really didn't need any fixings. I would put mayonnaise and/or mustard on, but I was at Mama's house and I don't trust the food in her fridge (she either can't read expiry dates or doesn't believe in them).
Finally, take one crispy organic Gala apple, wash it well, core and slice it, and place along the edge of the plate. Looks good, hey?
It was!
Plus, bonus, I could eat it at my desk leisurely and not feel rushed, even though I was back at work.
