caviar makes everything wonderful

This is a elegant 'dietetic lunch' - broccoli stuffed potato, salad, Greek yogurt and caviar.

When you are on a diet, it is always nice to dress up your lunch with something to make you feel like it is special. Caviar fits the bill! The problem that most people (including me) have is the extravagant cost of this little garnish. Caviar is expensive, with some types going for hundreds of dollars an ounce… but that’s out of my budget. For years I would buy a 12 ounce jar from Smart & Final ( a west coast semi-wholesale market) for a minimal cost, but then when the price of this item hit the roof, it was dropped from their  inventory.

Not to be stopped by such a little thing as my favorite item being OOS (out-of-stock) and deleted; I checked the internet and found it on Amazon.com. However, I found a wonderful alternative at roughly 1/3 to 1/2 the cost from Iceland.

Frankly, I like giving those Vikings on that rugged little rock in the Atlantic the business... plus it is an indulgence I feel I can afford again at under $15 a 12 ounce bottle!

So, here it is  and as an alternative, I highly recommend it!

BTW. The stuffed potato comes from Jenny Craig… so diet food can be made delicious!
