Lunchtime Fashion Show

I wanted to eat my lunch in peace today, and Sundays are a good day to catch up on personal tasks before the work week washes over me. I was about to sit down to Tahini Panzanella that I threw together but took a pause. I ran to my room to get a few prop bowls and my camera and re-direct my attention to a little photoshoot. Content is king, and I always feel like I need MORE MORE MORE of it, so why not use my quirky lunch as the stand-in model? 

I have been completely obsessed with tahini lately, and salad is all too easy to throw together for lunch. So I tossed together one of my favorite proteins- chickpeas- tomatoes, cucs, and day-old sesame bread with a creamy tahini situation. It was a little revelation when I realized how well tahini works when soaked into homemade croutons. Give it a try— but please spare yourself the photoshoot and enjoy.
