Today’s lunch was simply tuna mixed with olive oil, salt, and pepper on whole-grain bread. I actually keep a mini-pantry of food in the office, and 3 ounce cans of tuna are always on stock. One is the perfect size for a sandwich with no leftovers to clog up the office refrigerator, and also fits the bill for an afternoon snack. Other foods I keep desk side – raisins, nuts, pretzels, oatmeal, a couple cans of soup, yogurt, and cheese sticks (those last two, in the fridge of course). Here are some more office-friendly food ideas.
I am a registered dietitian with the National Fisheries Institute, so fish is my nutrition forte. I earned my BA in Communication from Southwestern University, just outside of Austin, TX. During college, one of my very favorite evening outings was a leisurely trip to the healthful food market. My passion for food was undeniable, so I combined both of my interests by earning my MS in Nutrition Communication from Tufts University in Boston, MA. As well as my Registered Dietitian (RD) credential through the University of Delaware.
Beyond reading scientific studies about docosahexaenoic acid and selenium, I love to entertain, travel, watch reality TV, grill outdoors, and go to spin class. I live in Washington, DC and am surrounded by a cast a characters you will get to know as you read my blog, including my fiancé (Lloyd), my cat (Miles), and my three sisters.
