Lunchtime Love

Poor lunch is easily the most overlooked meal of the day. It usually has to be quick and efficient. Every now and again I get pretty obsessed with a certain meal and eat it for a long period of time. Kind of like how I have basically been eating Dippy Eggs for breakfast every day of my life for like years. I switch it up sometimes but for the most part, its Dippy Eggs all the way.

This adorable little meal that I have been making for lunch everyday lately has put a bright spot in the middle of my day. With it's balance of carbs, dairy and veggies its a pretty healthy option coming in at about 375 calories.

You'll need:

  • 2 tortilla shells
  • Your choice of meat - I use turkey
  • Your choice of cheese - I use Swiss
  • 1/2 tomato
  • lettuce
  • just a dash of Miracle Whip

This one isn't rocket science folks but here is what I do. I put the meat and cheese first, add just a tiny bit of the Miracle Whip, lettuce and tomato. Roll it, cut and ENJOY!

Fall For This...

Summer has been absolutely wonderful and I've enjoyed every second of it. That being said, every single year I, along with many others jump for joy when it's finally time for Fall. I'm not going to lie I have been Fall Fashion Shopping since the end of July. How does one resist with such amazing things coming for Fall 2014? I have compiled a "must have" list of what I think you just need for this season and what's going to be big.

1) I suppose you can thank Pharrell for the hat craze. Although, as you know I have always been a fan of a good hat. So trend or no trend I always have a seasonal hat ready to add as the perfect touch for any outfit.

2) A big tote to toss you day into. Lunch, a pair of flats, makeup for touchups, your planner, and whatever else a girl on the go needs. I chose leopard because it will go with just about any outfit you can think of.

3) Lace is big this season and so is layering. Add the two, and you've got a fresh new Fall look.

4) No cooler season is complete without a big 'ol sweater!! Grey is a nice color that goes with everything.

5) Sky High boots! Over the knee duds are for sure one of my must haves!

6) I love fur! However, for me, it's got to be faux fur. Just a personal thing. But, get some fur going on!

7) A jeweled top. Speaking of layering, this is a great piece for that as it is short sleeves.

8) A "bib necklace". I'm all about the pearls be they costume or not. This one was right up my ally.

9) A pretty, bright, pair of closed toe shoes. I chose red to match my ever typical nails and lips.

10) A coat you don't already have. Cape coats are very in and will look fantastic paired with a colored glove.

11) As an added bonus... Get something that just screams your name. For me, I channel Jackie O. with big sunglasses!

Until next time! Xoxo! 

Avoca-do!

I've said it once and I will say it again...I am an absolute avocado freak! I love them! Having said that, I am also obsessed with eggs too. Put the two together and you've got my favorite meal EVER! Not only is this healthy but has literally all of my favorite things! Did I forget to mention the fabulous and versatile tortilla shell?! Also another favorite of mine. This little "breakfast pizza" has now been thrown into my dinner rotation because breakfast for dinner is pretty much awesome.

Its so easy too! Just heat your tortilla shell for about 20 seconds, mash your avocado with a hint of lime juice and a little garlic of your choice, and spread it on the shell. Then put a little bit of oil in a pan on medium and wait for it to heat a little until a water drop will sizzle. Once it does, drop the egg in and immediately put the heat on low. Let the egg cook until the egg white is cooked and the yolk is just starting to get a little hard. Then blot the oil off the bottom of the egg and put it on your tortilla shell.

Tada! Best meal ever!
