Lunch
« on: April 17, 2011, 07:05:54 PM »
Working on eating right and I've gotten breakfast under control, dinner is coming around but lunch is still a fucking mess.

I can't really do sandwiches more then a couple of times before I get bored of it.  Plus by the time lunch rolls around I'm not in the mood to make a sandwich.

So I need your lunch ideas.

Lately when I bring my lunch it's been really simple.

Here's what I've got for tomorrow
8oz turkey breast
2C broccoli
1oz almonds
1C greek yogurt mixed with raspberries and whey protein

Taste wise how does greek yogurt compare to the flavored yogurts?  I don't dislike it but it isn't my favorite thing to eat

Flavored greek yogurt tastes a lot like regular yogurt.  Unflavored it's a little "sharper", I guess?  The biggest difference is that the consistency is a lot more like sour cream.

Trader Joe's is great for simple lunches that can be really good for you - their buffalo chicken meatballs are great as well as the sliced chicken and turkey breasts.

Here's my plan for tomorrow - basically dinner changes but that's about it.  This is a normal day for me

Mike, why isn't salad realistic?  But a few ingredients and throw them together.  I can throw together a salad just as fast as I can throw together a sandwich in the morning.

Cause it's salad.  Salad goes with a meal.  It isn't a meal :D

I totally disagree.  A little cheese, the right dressing, some meat (I prefer ground turkey or ground red meat.. but chicken is good as well), some veggies... and top it with some Texas Toast Chili Lime Strips.  And you've got yourself a fantastic meal.

I love me some salad.

i eat a salad every day for lunch.  it might seem boring, but it's simple to make and satisfying.  i usually mix in the leftover protein from the previous dinner or canned fish.

berries, nuts (usually macadamia), avacado, seeds, red onion, etc are regular components.  i don't eat much dairy at all so i steer clear of the cheese, etc
