Looking fashionable in the fridge

Within the last week my snacks and lunches have been upgraded. Not so much the actual food, but the containers that I put them in.

My friends know me well - I bring my lunch and snacks to work, I like cute things and I love cute things that are reusable/cut down on waste!

Inside this cute lunch sack today is this:

Couscous Salad with Mint, Raisins & Almonds

1/2 cup whole-grain couscous

1/2 cup raisins

1/2 (15 ounce) can chickpeas 

1/2 cucumber, cubed

1/4 cup (small handful) fresh mint, finely chopped

1 tablespoon sliced almonds

2 tablespoons dressing  my choice: Trader Joe's Asian Style Spicy Peanut Vinaigrette 

I typically make two salads at one time, to make the most of the ingredients. 

Enjoy!
