Author Notes: I feel better in the afternoon if I eat a healthy lunch, but it needs to have enough taste, fat, and protein to be satisfying. This salad does the trick. Also it's really easy. I was eating it all the time (until I created Perfect Lunch Salad #2 -- now I will have variety). The amounts of ingredients are just guidelines, so of course feel free to adjust to make it perfect for you! —Laura

Directions
- Pick a container (with tight lid) that looks like it will hold the amount of salad you want to eat for lunch. Fill it nearly full with spinach.
- Sprinkle the spinach with salt, then drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat.
- Add the avocado to the top of the salad. Drizzle the lemon juice onto the avocado, then toss gently.
- Add the cheese, walnuts, and fresh ground pepper to taste. If there's still room in your container, cram some more greens on top.
- Have a happy lunch!
