THE BETTERDAY WEEKLY
What Alberta is eating this week.
The office lunch had range this week: pesto pasta, chicken parm and enough saucy bowls to make the desk salad nervous. Calgary and Edmonton kept ready-to-eat meals interesting, even when the calendar was behaving like it owned the place.
This week’s top five.
The whole week on a plate.

Basil.
The leaf that refuses to whisper.
Basil looks delicate and then arrives with an entire summer garden tucked into one leaf. Tear it instead of chopping it to keep the tender leaves from bruising more than they need to. Your cutting board can take the afternoon off.
Pesto Party Chicken Rotini puts basil exactly where we like it: wrapped around every curve of pasta with chicken, greens and cheese along for the ride. It is bright, savoury and extremely qualified for office lunch duty. Open the container and let everybody else reconsider their sandwich.
