Duck Season


This is another epic salad. This is also a cool no-effort clean-up meal if you follow the order of operations.

As soon as you get in the door, set down your bag, let the dog out, and walk into the kitchen. Cut a sweet potato in half and put one half inside your toaster over. Set the timer for a half hour. Go about your buisness.

When you come back to the kitchen, slice some duck and put it on foil next to the potato in the toaster oven. Put these things in a bowl:
One or two handfuls of spinach.
Queso Fresco (stab at the round with a fork to break off some chunks).
Sliced strawberries.
Mandarin wedges.

When the duck is warm all the way through and the potato is stabable with a fork, you're ready to eat. Put the duck on the salad. I recommend a Kings Hawaiian Sweet Bread roll if you aren't raging against the processed food machine.

Pair with a rad beer of your choosing. Or, if you're not drinking tonight, enjoy Trader Joe's pomegranate juice watered down with some bubbly water.
