Lunch tends to be the one meal I struggle with daily, likely because I’m typically only preparing a dish for myself. Generally I head towards leftovers, if there are any, but otherwise, a salad or sandwich or both are my basic staples. Or perhaps a salad or sandwich made with leftovers…
After awhile that can get a bit monotonous, so I’ve been seeking ways to “jazz” things up for my unhappy tastebuds!
In doing so, I’m also trying to incorporate more and more fresh produce and natural products. Food that tastes good but serves a higher purpose of nourishing my body’s needs. So, it’s always great to find a new product that helps me fulfill my lunchtime mission like Marzetti Simply Dressed Natural Salad Dressings.
Simply Dressed® salad dressings are all natural, made with extra virgin olive oil, sea salt and canola oil, which provides omega-3. And since they’re all natural salad dressings, they don’t contain preservatives, trans fat, high fructose corn syrup, MSG and artificial flavors.
A simple sandwich becomes a gourmet one when you pair your filler (meat, hummus, fish, and so on) with some veggies and a great dressing.
For lunch today, I whipped up this simple dish and my tastebuds are doing a happy dance, not only from the rich goodness of the ingredients, but the fresh zing from the Marzetti Simply Dressed Ceasar Salad Dressing. Want to see what I had? Recipe follows:

The “magic” is the gourmet taste and ease of preparation. If I didn’t know any better, I’d think I just picked this up from my favorite coffee shop deli. The difference is really in the dressing, simply makes the sandwich!
I’m looking forward to dressing up my turkey leftovers by swapping out turkey for the fish in this sandwich creation.
Marzetti Simply Dressed Salad Dressing also comes in Balsamic, Blue Cheese, Champagne, Coleslaw, Ginger Sesame, Greek Feta, Pomegranate, Ranch, and Strawberry Poppyseed flavors. For more information, visit the Marzetti website.
