Container Lunching

You've all heard of container gardening, right?

Well, tonight I filled up a few containers with food, that I will mix throughout this week to make lunches: simple, fast and so not boring.

cous-cous

feta cheese

olives

tomatoes*

cucumbers*

steamed asparagus

parsley

Not pictured: dressing (lemon juice and olive oil), home-made hummus and carrots

*Because I hope the vegetables will remain crisp for a few days, I seeded both the cucumber and the tomato. This step took a few extra minutes, but will prolong the life of the food!

Other additions: green peppers, white beans, red onions (maybe not for lunches at work), good quality canned tuna, steak from tonight's dinner, etc. The possibilities are endless.
