Brought to my lunch hosts: salad fixings, including much lettuce, radicchio, cucumber, and basil.
Also in the oven: half a turkey breast topped with cranberry chutney, over a bed of onions*, nectarines*, and apricots*. (Read: I haven't been having enough easy protein around, so I'm trying to remedy that. I also picked up eggs and vegan sausages. Hopefully I won't get to this point again, because I was having a hard time on my bike ride today from lack of calories, specifically proteins, but not enough in general. And the cheese I have around just doesn't appeal in the humidity.)
Also from this week's vegetable tide: grape tomatoes eaten out of hand; eggplant roasted with potato and onion, eaten with some Greek-style yogurt; roasted golden beets and carrots eaten with a touch of feta.
Still to use: cauliflower (I'm thinking curried, with chickpeas, if it doesn't get roasted), some garlic and onions (alliums always get used up somehow :-). And that's it, amazingly.
