Simplest Lunch

This recipe counts on leftovers and staples, as much of my food does. I was hungry. I had some broccoli left from last night’s dinner, to which I added other ingredients, and I arranged them all on the plate in the order of the Italian flag—red, white, green. I put a line of mayonnaise down the center and sprinkled the whole with remnants of my five-spice powder left from a more complex dish. It was light, simple, and delicious—also healthful.
