Seeing as how I started off the first few weeks of school with a variety of lunch options and later defaulted to the good ole handy sandwich, I kind of believe these babies are sandwiched out. With them being home with me during the day for the next few weeks, I’m going to devote some days to actually cooking these babies something warm.

Note I said “some days”

Beef and broccoli and pizza are my clutch go to menu items for those times I don’t feel like cooking or need something quick and easy. If you follow me on Snapchat then you know one of my children is over beef and broccoli so pizza it is. I have a deep freezer and when pizzas go on sale I like to purchase them in bulk and stock up. Publix is currently having a great promotion offering 2 Freschetta Pizzas for $10 that is valid from 5/19- 6/8.

A part of our outing yesterday included going to Publix to pick up a few items and some of those items included pizza.

We grabbed a few boxes of Freschetta Brick Oven Crust. Freschetta is focused on the quality ingredients they use in their pizzas, and for their Artisan Crust variety it is all about the 3 whole grains that go into the delicious crust. The Artisan crust option is new to Publix stores so be on the look out for it.

Once we got home I threw together a quick watermelon, cucumber and feta salad to go with their pizza.

This salad is super easy to make you need:

added a slice of pizza to the mix and my girl was in heaven.

Freschetta has different varieties of pizza to appeal to everyone and serves as a great lunch option for hungry children on Summer vacation. Visit Freschetta online, on Facebook, Twitter and Youtube to get recipe and product information.

Here’s the thing, I made this watermelon cucumber feta salad because this sweet tooth has to go!

So let’s talk about the fact that I’m giving up white sugar….or at least moving toward that goal. I am in my second week and I promise my sweet tooth has been taunting me like a relentless bully. The struggles eliminating the hidden sugars are nothing in comparison to those Oreos in there that just keep calling my name.

See I’m not stripping the whole family….just yet. I’m trying to fine tune this new lifestyle before I thrust them into it. So the struggle has been how to curb and satisfy my sweet tooth.

*insert watermelon*

Love watermelon. L O V E.

I love salty stuff as well, stripped myself of that about a year ago so I thought what better than a watermelon, cucumber and feta salad. Sweet, salty and refreshing.

This salad has just the right amount of all natural sweetness and saltiness.

Super easy to make with just cubed watermelon and feta cheese ( or you could use crumbles) and cucumber. I’m not a huge fan of cucumber so I made sure to slice thinly and drizzled balsamic vinaigrette over the top.

Watermelon Cucumber Feta Salad

And because I love all things watermelon, this watermelon guacamole recipe will be in heavy rotation all season long. Some chips, a cold drink and this guac is all I need for some evening porch sitting.
