ALANNA'S LENTIL SOUP, RUSSO'S SALAD AND APPLE: GRADE A+

Posted by Alanna Fincke

Here's what I had for lunch today:

• Russo's Salad
• Vegetarian Lentil Soup
• Apple

Grade: A+

I am so happy to finally receive a perfect score! What a wonderful little valentine for me today. This lunch is loaded with nutrient-rich veggies, like watercress, peas, red peppers, beets, and artichokes. Topped with olive-oil dressing, the salad also provides a great source of fat. My vegetarian lentil soup is an excellent source of protein and additional fiber. And, the apple—rich in healthy compounds and fiber—is the icing on the cake, so to speak.

Hurrah, I knew you would do it. And boy what a great lunch to do it with. If it tasted as good as it looks then you are a winner all 'round. The salad is so colorful and looks lovely. Lentil soup is a great choice anytime. It is definitely one of my favorite. This lunch is warm and inviting and would make a good light dinner.
