Homemade Turkey Burger minus the bread! Added seasoning to the raw meat then cooked it on the George Foreman grill. 3 slices of avocado, 2 slices of tomato, 1 slice of onion, 1 slice of Sargento Reduced Sodium Pepper Jack cheese, 1/2 teaspoon of mustard and 1/2 teaspoon of mayo placed it all between two large leaves of iceberg lettuce!!! Washed it all down with a bottle of Ozarka water. It was really delicious :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

I know you said no sandwich but I had half a PB&J, 1 can of cambells chunky vegetable soup (a ittle high in salt), and a sugar free pudding. An option that I like is to make my tuna fish concoction and put it on maybe a tortilla or healthy crackers. Take 1/2c of beans, any will do, 2T of Hummus, again any will do, 2-3oz canned tuna or salmon, mustard and hot sauce to taste. It should run 200-250 calories plus the serving vessel.

I love this! It would be great in lettuce and looks like it's crazy high in protein. Will try.

I eat frozen meals for lunch a couple times a week too and I am trying to watch my sodium. I try to only get ones where the sodium is under 500 mg. Also I try to add more potassium rich foods to the meal if I'm going to do something higher in sodium. My favorite is Healthy Choice Honey Balsamic Chicken. It's about 490 mg of sodium but over 800 mg of potassium.

I take leftovers pretty often. Today I had leftover Chicken Tortilla Soup. I also take smoked turkey/swiss/avocado sandwiches on Arnold Sandwich thins with veggies as a side.

leftovers or something i've prepared just for my lunch bag, like chicken breasts with brocolli/cheddar (my favorite).

contents of my 'feed' bag from today(I pack for breakfast and lunch):


4 egg whites (poached in microwave)
2 strips of low sodium bacon
an applesauce cup
an apple
a colby/jack cheese stick
left over lasagna for lunch.

i didn't eat it all (there happened to be fresh fruit at work left over from a function) ...but i was prepared for my 8 hr shift!! too tempting to get something unhealthy.

Big salad with balsamic vinaigrette and two Trader Joe's Bavarian Bratwurst (they're tiny, only 190 cals for 2), and a few grapes. 507 calories.

Im having left over lite pasta and sauce (packet) and leftover chicken breast that I chopped up and mixed through the pasta. Oh the pasta also has chopped up hot salami... YUMMMY!! Bring on lunchtime lol

I worked out at lunch, so my pre-workout lunch was 1/2 cup forbidden rice (it's a black rice that has more protein than wild/brown rice) and 1/3 of a package of leftover Trader Joe's Saucy Scallops with Mushrooms (330 cal). After my workout I had a protein shake and a cheap fast food burger (since I was ravenous, had enough in my calories/macros, and the time/money).

I have the same lunch everyday until I get sick of it (with the exception of changing small items like sauce sometimes). Right now that is a wrap, with ham, spinach, broccoli, carrot, cucumber, chilli, tomato, onion, snow pea shoots, celery and probably dijon mustard.
