These beautiful trees were preceded by the nasty stuff that makes it difficult to breathe...or stop coughing... or think... or do anything more than veg on the sofa.
Okay, I don't usually whine about allergies, but I've never had them as bad as this year. I was pretty much immobilized for a week.
Which wasn't such a bad thing because:
a) I was on Easter break; and
b) this cute guy had just had surgery on his ACL and couldn't do anything more than sleep.

The good part was I did a lot of reading.
I did not do a lot of cooking.
So I had to dig back into my phone photo library, and I came up with these three simple meals that I threw together.
They're pretty self-explanatory.
First up:
I buy salmon burgers from our local health food store. I like them better than salmon steaks. I added a bed of couscous, some fresh asparagus, some roasted beets, and I sprinkled lemon juice over the whole thing.
Simple and tasty.
Second two are salads. I made a lentil salad and a salmon burger salad. Have you figured out I love to add fruit to my greens? I love using the fruit instead of dressing. Not just because the calorie count is lower, but because I love fruit in my salad.
Finally, my church had this sign posted for Easter. Wouldn't the world be a better place if we all kept this message in our hearts?
