I've had breakfast for dinner, and even dinner for lunch, but this morning was the first time I've had lunch for breakfast. Confused? Let me explain. A dear friend and I met for breakfast at Mudd in the East Village, but neither of us was in the mood for anything breakfast-y. I've been eating eggs a lot lately, so that wasn't an option. I wasn't looking to have anything sweet either. Given that the restaurant serves its whole menu all day long, we both decided to get lunch. She got a sandwich and I got an arugula salad with chickpeas, feta cheese, julienned zucchini, and grilled chicken. After practically licking the plate, I began to wonder why I don't do eat lunch foods for breakfast more often. Sure, now, I'm wondering what I'll have for lunch but for today, it was lovely way to start the day off with a savory protein rich dish that's not the same old.
Have you ever had salad for breakfast?
