Desdemona 48 Posted August 3, 2012 Try to keep away from processed lunch meat like bologna. Have Roast beef or sliced smoked turkey. Also, you don't have to just think "lunch meat anymore." You can either cook up a fresh whole chicken or buy a whole cooked chicken from the market and slice it up for your lunch or supper. It's much better tasting and healthier than lunch meat. If you like fish --- use salmon or sole or shrimp. You can make up your own meatballs and freeze them and take them out as you need them (do not buy meatballs ready made from the store because they are full of filler). If you are keeping your carbs pretty low -- you can use ham or sausages. As cool weather comes along --- take a nice thermos of thick stew or chili. Also --- make extra food for supper and take it the next day for lunch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JennyBee 340 Posted August 3, 2012 Tuna/chicken/egg salad with whole wheat crackers is always a winner! Also baby carrots dipped in hummus is awesome. Best of luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kallets 29 Posted August 3, 2012 I bought these little containers where you put the lid in the freezer, so anything you put in stays cold. Thy are from Wal-Mart in the back to school section. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
