With a toddler running wild around my house lunchtime (for me) has become a distant memory.
Gone are the times I could fix myself a beautiful salad with chopped veggies and a freshly blended dressing.
Gone are the times I could sit and eat pretty much, well, um, anything.
Time doesn’t seem to exist anymore. The days wiz by at lightening speed, running around after my lo or running around trying to squeeze in a few errands like a trip to the grocery store.
I enjoy every second of this high-octane, blurry-eyed existence. I may be exhausted and running on empty, but the memories we are creating will be cherished forever and I do not want to miss a single moment.
I can’t even count the number of people who have told me “this will be over so soon, enjoy it now!”
So I am! And if that means I have to make some changes and comprises along the way I am more than thrilled to.
So back to lunch. During lunch time one can find me in my kitchen with my lo clinging to my leg or rolling cars around on the refrigerator shelves (and possibly (knocking over something liquid if it happens to be in the middle of the fridge race track course). I have a very small window to get something healthy and balanced onto a plate. paper plate that it.
That is why these Buffalo Chicken Roll-ups are my new go-to quick and healthy lunch option. You can even make them with one hand if you have a child on your hip!
If you have turkey or chicken cold cuts, celery, carrots, hot sauce and blue cheese or ranch dressing (optional) you are all set!
I am such a buffalo wing fan, and these roll-ups have all the favor of my favorite game day food! (without the guilt!!! Can you say heck yeah!?)
