Lunch recipe recs? I'm tired of the same old.



Recommended Posts

So I thought I found the perfect lunchtime meal. Delicious, cheap, low cal and easy: miso Soup with sauteed greens and tofu or grilled cod.

However, I have now eaten this every day for over a month. I'm so tired of it.

So what is everyone else eating? I'm not a vegetarian, but I'm not a huge meat loving person. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I love Miso Soup too, but not every day. I am trying to save money to buy a house, so I am now eating my left over dinner for lunch. This is really amazing for me, because I never use to eat left overs. But I don't mind if I can save money to buy a home.

So, I make extra servings of dinner on purpose, so I can take the leftover to work to eat for lunch.< /p>

Examples:

Chili

Taco salad

Baked chicken with veggies

Baked fish with veggies

chicken casserole

Pasta casserole

When I don't have left overs from dinner, I will make lettuce or tortilla wraps for lunch.

Example: lettuce with humus spread on it and meat and cheese placed in the middle with onions and tomatoes.

Example: Multi grain tortilla with humus, meat, cheese, onion, and veggies.

And I can always make a nice salad with the left over meat from dinner.

I have really been enjoying these lately. Low carb, low fat & low cal.

~Spring Mix salad (lettuce)

~1/4 cup shredded cheddar/jack cheese

~few tbs salsa

~2 tbs low fat sour cream

~few tbs fat free italian dressing (I don't use much because of salsa already gives moisture)

~Marinated chicken breast (use whatever you like. I like light ceasar dressing, or just oil w/ some spice).

That's it! Enjoy!!!

Sometimes I just use turket breast if that's all i have on hand. This salad really stays w/ me for hours! It's about 550 cals or so I think.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
