high (noon) tea



jury lunch #5:

Tea Sandwiches

A bag of arugula, smoked salmon, roasted tomatoes, one leftover hardboiled egg and strip of bacon turned into 3 kinds of "tea sandwiches". I guiltily bought a loaf of white bread - can't even remember the last time I bought white bread - and some prosciutto from Trader Joe's and hurriedly started to see what kind of sandwiches I could come up with. The egg and bacon became egg salad and arugula, the salmon got combined with butter and chives, and finally the tomato got combined with half of the prosciutto.

The other half was used to wrap 5 remaining figs I also found in the fridge.

I made some Earl Grey tea in a thermos and off I went to join Jimmy.

This was a nice, no cook lunch. Easy to eat - no utensils needed - and the white bread made the sandwiches a little fancy. A definite step above peanut butter and jelly!
