Lunch

Queenie's Killer Tomato Bagel Sandwich

This tomato bagel is a pleasant breakfast treat. It's easy to prepare and totally portable!

Lunch

This egg salad recipe is the best and easy to make with chopped hard-boiled eggs, mayonnaise, and mustard. I like to add green onions for some color and crunch. It tastes wonderful in a sandwich and will definitely be devoured at picnics! It's really good on rye.

Lunch

Amazingly Good and Healthy Tuna Salad

This tuna salad recipe is tweaked from one I found. It is so good, my husband, who is a very picky eater, often requests this! Enjoy and pat yourself on the back for eating a healthy meal.

Lunch

Tor-Tunas

A super fun and easy way to serve the usual tuna fish. Just wrap in a tortilla! My kids have been loving these for years, as I did when I was a kid. Awesome for lunch boxes, just wrap in plastic wrap or foil. The kids love calling them 'Tor-tunas'!

Lunch

Vegetarian Chickpea Sandwich Filling

Spread this chickpea sandwich filling on crusty whole grain rolls or pita bread and serve with lettuce and tomato.

Lunch

Easy Homemade Chili

This homemade chili is delicious and goes great with cornbread or over corn chips for a chili pie! I like to use spicy pinto beans but if you use regular beans, you can up the chili powder in this recipe.

Lunch

Individual Baked Eggs

This individual baked eggs recipe is a fuss-free, easy way to bake eggs for any number of people. Each egg is wrapped in a strip of bacon and topped with a square of cheese. These individual eggs take on a very pleasing flavor just by baking instead of cooking them in the more conventional matter — no splatters and you can make 12 or more at once.

Lunch

Southwestern Quinoa Salad

A healthy Southwestern quinoa salad with lots of fresh flavor.

Lunch

Sesame Noodle Salad

This amazing salad recipe was given to me by a friend who used to know someone at the now closed Larry's Markets in the Seattle area. I've added to the recipe a little -- so it's not exactly the same... but better! I take this to every picnic and everyone loves it! May also add diced chicken for a variation.
