    Greek yogurt and protein cereal (love Fiber One protein). Add frozen fruit to this in the morning and it's thawed by lunch!

    Lettuce leaves smeared with mayo, a layer of fresh Boar's Head deli meat (usually the Cajun Turkey Breast), then a layer of fresh sliced deli cheese (sharp cheddar or provolone), a little bit of brown mustard and a couple of pickles.

    THANK you all so much!!! I got a lot of great suggestions. Some of the stuff some of you mention I haven't even heard of but I will look into it. because it made my mouth water.

    I am not a huge fan of the taste/smell that lingers behind after one uses a microwave....it either tastes too rubbery if food is warmed in a plastic container and if it's warmed up on paper plates then it has a funky wet paper smell. I have not been using one since mid-January. At home if I warm up something I usually eat warm it up in the oven or stovetop.

    Again, THANK YOU so much!
