    Today I am having a sweet potato (cooked in my Instant Pot) topped with kale that I sauteed with onion. Yesterday I had homemade quick zucchini lasagna.

    Seasoned and broiled Tilapia with Brown Rice and Veggies. Super easy meal to make in advance for the week.

    Spiraled zucchini "pasta" with meatballs and tomato sauce. It is soooo yummy!

    Sandwiches, wraps, soups, leftovers....just make it fit your macros. Cottage cheese & fruit with a side of snap peas. I love eating snap peas raw (no dip needed).

    Today is egg salad on whole wheat, steamed broccoli, and an Asian pear.

    Do you have a microwave, a toaster, a refrigerator?

    For the lasagna I sliced the zucchini into thin ribbons with my mandolin then I mixed 2% cottage cheese ( 4 oz) , Bertolli Basil and Tomato pasta sauce (4oz ), shredded Italian Cheese (2 oz), dried basil and oregano, salt and pepper. I placed a layer of the zucchini on the bottom of a small rectangle pan topped with some half the cheese mixture then more zucchini and another layer of cheese mixture. Topped with more zucchini then I poured 4 oz of the sauce over the top and spread it out and topped with a little more cheese (2 oz) . Baked in the oven at 350 for 30 minutes. Next time I will pre-cook the zucchini a little before layering. I was still crunchy but it was good. The pan I made it in was small and I divided it into 3 servings. I put it into the recipe thing here on MFP and it came out as being around 200 calories per serving.

    Well it would totally depend on your dietary needs and preferences. You can bake chicken on the weekend and have it for lunch during the week with rice and veggies.

    Two cans of drained tuna, tablespoon of mayo (olive oil), salt pepper and lemon juice. Cucumbers and either a wrap or pretzel thins.
