PREP

Make HARD BOILED EGGS: Women cook 2 eggs; men cook 4 eggs.

Fill a medium saucepan with a lid with at least 5 inches of water, and bring to a boil. When water is boiling, add eggs one at a time, dropping them in carefully with a spoon so as not to crack the shells. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 13 minutes.

Meanwhile, set up a medium mixing bowl with 1 ½ cups cold water and 1 ½ cups ice. When eggs are done, use a spoon to transfer them, one at a time, into the ice water bath. Cool 3 minutes, then peel the eggs and refrigerate in an airtight container.

Peel the remaining ¼ avocado and freeze it in the ziploc bag with the frozen banana for tomorrow’s snack, a pudding.

If you need to pack tomorrow’s lunch to­go, you can prepare it as soon as your hard­boiled eggs are ready tonight, or in the morning.

Assemble the No­Mayo Tuna Salad and store in a small airtight container in the fridge. Store the romaine leaves in a separate container in the fridge.
