wwperry

I'm looking for quick, easy and healthy lunch ideas within 300 cals.
Example, today I had a tuna cup with 1 tbs mayo, tomatoe, pickles and yoplait light for total of 260 cals.
Please share yours. :flowerforyou:

Prefer no frozen entrees. Thx.

We are big on taking leftovers from night before and adding some salad bits to it. I try to keep only to 3 salad items each day for lunch) and try to have different ones each time to mix it up for interest and health. (dinner I have another 2 or 3 veggies) if I don't have leftovers then I try all sorts of different nuts or cheese, again, different ones to make it interesting... It's, Quick, easy & healthy.
Putting a fruit with the salad is a great change also... Different fruit each time. Nothing boring about eating healthy!

If you make a spaghetti bolognese or chilli con carne make a big batch of it but rather using beef mince, use quorn mince which takes down the calories and the saturated fat by a dramatic amount!
Hope it helps x

My lunchtime regulars are:

quinoa with a little paste mixed in (usually harissa paste or sundried tomato paste) with chopped spring onions, cucumber, black olives, rocket (arugula) & roasted butternut squash cubes.

Fattoush- Lebanese salad made with little gem/ romaine lettuce, sliced red onion, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, triangles of toasted wholemeal pitta bread, fresh flat leaf parsley and a dressing made with evoo, lemon juice, black pepper & sumac (middle eastern spice).

Melba toasts, cucumber slices & laughing cow extra light. I usually eat this with cherry tomatoes and a cup soup.

wholewheat pasta, mixed with a little reduced fat pesto & salad

stuffed pitta pockets with cottage cheese, wafer thin ham & salad.

Once a week either during the day or in the evening I roast diced up courgette, aubergine, onions and peppers in a bit of olive oil and some mixed herbs for about 40 minutes. They keep in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. Each day I then spread a wrap with light houmous add the veg and some jarred red peppers (loads of flavour) and top with shredded lettuce... YUMMMEEE!

I also buy delicious pre-prepared soup (if you're in UK the Yorkshire provender company is amazing!!) and have half a tub of that (loads!) which is usually about 200-250 cals and a chunk of nice bread.
