Easy Light Lunch

Monday, July 3rd, 2006


So I have been trying to use up some of the condiments in the fridge and pantry- I am the self- proclaimed condiment queen, which is funny because the only condiment Evan eats is barbeque sauce. So I have been taking inspiration from various sources, one being the latest issue of Cooking Light. I am totally hit or miss with this magazine, some month’s there isn’t a single thing I want to make or like this month, there are multiple things that look good.

One dish was a French inspired sandwich, I believe. It called for roasted red peppers and an olive spread. So I decided to use some Trader Joe’s olive tapenade and one of the many Roma tomatos I currently have in my kitchen. I picked up some nice ciabatta bread and Boursin cheese and lunch was ready! Layer it on however you like, stick it under the broiler and your done!

I really wanted to give goat cheese a try in this recipe, but I am just scared for some reason, so I stuck with what I usually get. I decided on a garlic and herb variety which was superb. I also want to try it with some Light Laughing Cow French Onion spread I got today (for when I don’t want to indulge so much!)
