    My usual crunchy asian salad with chicken:

    Shredded romaine lettuce
    Shredded baby bok choy
    Shredded red cabbage
    Julienne carrots, bell pepper, cucumbers
    Thinly sliced red onion
    If available, fresh cilantro or thai basil
    Chicken breast cooked, cubed
    Sesame vinaigrette
    Sriracha

    My other usual tomato and corn salad with grilled chicken:

    Halved cherry tomatoes
    Fresh corn kernels (or thawed)
    Baby aragula
    Pieces of grilled asparagus or grilled green beans
    Grilled chicken breast, cubed
    Cubed avocado
    Bacon, if wanted
    Ranch vinaigrette (a mix of low fat sour cream and greek yogurt with red wine vinegar, oregano, thyme, garlic powder and a little bit of tabasco)

    Today in my lunchbox:

    Baby aragula and baby spinach
    Shredded romaine lettuce
    Pieces of grilled asparagus
    Slivered red onions
    Leftover cooked salmon
    Leftover pasta and pesto
    Just a little olive oil and lemon juice as a dressing

    I am loving all of these! My current favorites:
    Quinoa
    Bacon
    Pineapple (caramelized in bacon fat)
    Red onion
    Jalapeño
    Goat cheese
    Avocado
    Cilantro
    Lime juice

    Add a generous dose of salt and pepper to both if you're into that sort of thing. Obviously that second one is great if you need to get your fats up. Yum!

    This. I want this in my mouth right now please.
