making my week easier, part 2

as i previously mentioned in yesterday's post...i like to prep myself for the long work week, making ingredients and meals ahead of time.

while i was in the kitchen, my boyfriend grilled 4 chicken breasts on Monday night.  i used one of the chicken breasts to add additional protein to our Tuesday lunch: 3-bean quinoa salad topped with grilled Italian marinated chicken & goat feta cheese.

now i used the second two chicken breasts, marinated in a sesame ginger dressing, for today's lunch, which i prepared last night: oriental chicken salad!

i always pickup extra containers from the salad bars at grocery stores.  my boyfriend never brings home the empty Tupperware!

my oriental chicken salads consist of the following delicious ingredients (makes 2 big salads):

(*all of the ingredients have been divided between two salads)

• 1 bag of romaine lettuce
• 1/2 cabbage thinly sliced
• 1 shredded carrrot
• mandarin oranges (1 can drained)
• 1/4 cup of sliced red onion
• 1 cup of thawed edamame
• chow mein noodles
• paul newman's sesame ginger dressing

all of this was easy to do, healthy, and will make for a great lunch!

It took us ages to get dressed - we got changed about 3 times before finally settling on a bit of sparkle...

there is too much alcohol in this drink? i didn't even know that there was alcohol in it...but that totally makes sense for causing me much hangover relief. but where will i get my glorious magical elixir now?!?
