Our cookbook of the week is Modern Lunch by Allison Day, creator of the award-winning blog Yummy Beet. Whether at an office, home or onsite, the sad desk lunch is often the order of the day. In her third cookbook, Modern Lunch (Appetite by Random House, 2019), she recasts the midday meal as colourful, energizing, flavourful and satiating. It doesn’t have to be every day.”Nearly three quarters of Canadians pack their own work lunches and almost 40 per cent eat them at their desks, so a workplace pantry can also improve the experience. Provisions include balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt (“You should always keep Maldon salt at your desk”), hot sauce and tamari.
