For today's post (for the most part) I'll let the photos tell the story.
Saturday's Lunch...
We marinated sliced chicken breast in a bit of olive oil, 2 cloves diced garlic, salt, pepper and dill. (Boneless, skinless chicken thighs are delicious in this too, but not always easy to find...)
We grilled the chicken until cooked through - slightly blackened - but juicy...(about 10 minutes)
OK, side note...these tulips are ten days old! Still so beautiful... Someone once told me putting a shiny penny in their water makes them last longer and keeps them from wilting...I do it every time!
A regular cucumber...peeled... and then seeds scooped out of its center. Dice.
Fresh, crisp Iceberg lettuce...
While everyone here gets acquainted, go help yourself to a nice glass of wine...
Then chop some fresh dill...
Assemble on a plate so people can help themselves...
A freshly cut Meyer Lemon...glistens like gold...
Greek yogurt with cucumber, dill, Meyer lemon juice and a bit of salt and pepper...
All mixed together...
Some grilled pita bread, olive tapenade and perhaps a few friends...
and lunch is served...

Wow, this is your lunch on a Saturday?? I'm impressed! We usually do lunch out as a treat on Saturdays, or we do like we do on Sunday, which is brunch and dinner only. We hounds are creatures of habit :) Anything with tzatziki rocks my world :) I see you are enjoying your new computer!!

This is awesome! I love how you put the toppings on the white tray. Sometimes simple grilled chicken is the best!
