it isn’t lunch, it’s 🌸art🌸

Tiffany, this one’s for you, queen 👑💕

Let’s build a beautiful plate, using a balance of vegetables, fruits, sweet and salty, tangy sauce, creamy dip, crunchy, and proteins (meat and cheese).

It never gets any less fun putting one of these together 😋

fruits:

watermelon, strawberry, blood orange

veggies:

cucumber, bell pepper, radishes, carrot

proteins:

turkey, salami, hard and soft cheeses

dips:

homemade jalapeño dill ranch

mustard 🌝

crunchies:

rosemary crackers, breadsticks, mixed salted nuts (pistachios, cashews, hazelnuts, peanuts, walnuts, almonds)

... Read morePresenting an artful platter is not just about taste, but also about aesthetics. Start by selecting vibrant fruits like watermelon, strawberries, and blood oranges that can add a pop of color to your plate. Pair these with refreshing veggies such as cucumbers, bell peppers, radishes, and carrots for a crisp texture. When it comes to proteins, consider a mix of turkey, salami, and a variety of cheeses—both hard and soft—to tantalize the taste buds. Dips are essential for elevating the flavor profile; try homemade jalapeño dill ranch and a zesty mustard for a tangy kick. For added crunch, include delightful rosemary crackers, breadsticks, and a medley of mixed nuts like pistachios, cashews, and almonds. This combination of sweet, salty, tangy, and creamy not only satisfies hunger but also turns a simple snack into an impressive masterpiece that will make any gathering special. An artful plate is an expression of creativity and enjoyment—a feast for both the eyes and the palate. Don't forget, plating is just as important as the food itself!

Burnout Isn’t a Healthcare Personality Trait
Nobody talks enough about how healthcare workers normalize things that would absolutely wreck most people. Living on caffeine instead of rest. Eating lunch in 4 minutes while standing at the nurses station. Missing holidays and family time so often it stops feeling weird. Never sitting down.

Healing during my Walmart lunch break 🫠✍️
