I was going to roast a chicken yesterday, but it was so hot and muggy that we decided to just have a giant salad instead. Chick peas, black olives, orange bell pepper, tomatoes, cucumber, and pickled red onions, all in a lemon-chive dressing. I also made panko goat cheese croquettes, but we ate them all, so there weren’t any leftovers for the bento. Plus my mother-in-law gave me some rosemary-flavored flax crackers, which I like because they look like they’re made of snake scales, and are delicious with ginger-scallion sauce.
