| Looking for new lunch ideas. What’s your favorite healthy lunch? |
| Bag of salad with rotisserie chicken or black beans on. |
| I’m making minestrone soup tonight and hope to have that for a couple of lunches this week. |
| The past few weeks I’ve been cutting up cucumber, tomatoes, avocado, adding a little feta, olive oil, and hummus. It makes a delicious salad! |
| A sprouted grain wrap, pesto hummos, fried egg whites, and lots of cut up veggies- all rolled up |
| Salads from Mixt. Sometimes I also eat a couple of veggie or chicken dumplings with it. |
And if it’s like Chopt you get the added bonus of diarrhea a couple of hours later |
| Greek salad. |

Nice a week I have salmon on top of a cabbage/ greens mix, with cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, slivered almonds and an Asian vinaigrette. I think that is healthy.
I often make homemade soup and have that with a piece of cheese. |
| Microwave large bowl of frozen stir fry vegetables with a few frozen dumplings/gyozas on top. Top with Kikkoman teriyaki sauce, Trader Joe’s furikake seasoning, and maybe some sunflower seeds. |
| Smoothie bowl. Protein powder, oat milk, frozen banana and peanut butter topped with fruit and granola. If I want to make it unhealthy I add Nutella on top 😁 I usually put a lot of berries for the antioxidants and can also add cacao powder, flax seed, etc. |

Baby kale, brussels sprout, broccoli slaw, cabbage salad mix (Dole or similar). I don't use the poppy seed dressing. Sometimes I use 1 T of the cranberry/pumpkin seed mixture, depending on the flavor and calorie count of whatever else I'm adding.
1 T (or less) Brianna's French Vinaigrette. Massage briefly. Any leftover protein from the last few days, maybe also with leftover roasted vegetables. If it's plain roast chicken, I add the cranberries/seeds. If it's steak or breaded chicken or something, I don't. |
| A sandwich with turkey and cheese |
| I make my own burritos using whatever leftovers I can find in the kitchen. I like the precooked white chicken slices in the deli section, black beans, rice, salsa, avocado slices, tomatoes, corn. Wrap it all in a tortilla and heat for a minute and it's delicious. Sometimes they're not standard burritos, I've also used leftovers from a Greek themed dinner or white rice with Asian leftovers. |
