READ MORE ABOUT:
Nothing breaks up the day like a delicious lunch, but who has time in the morning to put one together? I've got a friend who wants to enjoy a hearty and satisfying noontime meal, only she can't create a blueprint for her weekly dishes. My friend Jen has lunch envy. This busy architect spends all day planning big projects, but can't plan a week's worth of meals. So every day, it's off to the deli. Her co-workers find the time to make killer lunches, and when they sit down to eat together, her sad take-out sandwiches just don?t measure up.
TIPS:
Based on spending $7 per day on lunch, bringing your lunch from home 5 days per week can save you $140 per month ? that's $1680 per year!
Though Emeril and Jen use pork tenderloin, this same menu could be prepared with chicken thighs, beef tenderloin, or even shrimp.
