All you gluten free people! What do you eat for lunch?

My diary is open if you want. I eat salads a lot but also have sandwiches, pizza, all kinds of things

I generally will bring some meat I've cut up (grass fed beef, pork or chicken), some veggies, a paleo pumpkin pie (I make this from scratch, with a nut crust- not very sweet, so awesome!) or fruit. Or salad with meat. I always have protein of some sort though. I only bring yogurt if I've forgotten to go grocery shopping.

Soup! Yum! Turkey Gumbo with okra & rice, Thick Veggie Soup with glazed veggies, Chicken sauteed with Artichokes and mushrooms on rice or potato, salisbury steak patties with gravy on mashed potatoes and cauliflower. I cook one good meal on the weekend to take to work the rest of the week. Sushi! gluten free wraps make good sandwich holders so I can have roastbeef & turkey and avocado. I am gluten free and dairy free, and finding my health is coming back. Now it is time to get my portions under control.

While I eat a lot of salads topped with protein, I make roll ups using Whole Foods' Spinach gluten free tortillas. I just let my imagination go wild with what goes into them. In the winter I make a thick soup and carry it in a thermos or heat it up if there is a microwave wherever I'm going. There are lots of gluten free breads out there. My favorite for sandwiches is Whole Food's tomato (and basil?). I don't buy much at WF since it is so expensive, but every month I stock up on their GF breads. Try their cinnamon bread for breakfast.

Rice cakes, laughing cow cheese, turkey, fruit, carrots...

Today was half a rotisserie chicken and an unsweetened iced tea. Sometimes a salad. Another idea is tuna salad in a hollowed out tomato. I have a shop near my work that makes buffalo chicken salad and I will get a container of that and drink a half bottle of Kombucha with it.

My diary is open too; but sometimes I end up eating a piece of bread b/c I was at a restaurant or the grocery was out of my gf bread.

I have salad a lot b/c I like to have raw veg, but I also have a vegetarian burger on one slice of gf bread or maybe an open faced sandwich on gf bread; I also make soups like butternut squash, turkey chili, black bean soup and will have that with a side salad and skip the bread.

Since right before Thanksgiving I've been pretty bad; it stinks when our grocery doesn't have the gf bread. :frown: I ordered some from Julian bakery but it was so dry I nearly choked to death; so that didn't work out.

I typically have an Isagenix shake (the packets are really handy for work) or a Isagenix bar but occasionally a salad with chicken or an Amy's Natural GF frozen meal. Lunch is typically a utilitarian affair for me - the shakes are my favorite because they are very filling and I can handle conference calls and other things while eating without any mess or fuss.

When I could eat corn -- Mexican food. Anything with corn totillas. Now, salad, salad, and more salad, but I love salad I also like sushi now and then. If I'm busy I might just eat a cliff bar and an apple or something.

I use Gluten Free Palace products to prepare my meals. So I eat pretty much everything- sandwiches, pastas, pizzas etc. I'll include some kind of roast or grilled meat (chicken or fish) along with veggies. Sometimes I'll cook some soup and enjoy it with toasted bread, but that's on rare occasions and mostly just for dinner.

I'm a very very boring eater, and stick with the same thing pretty much every lunch: protein, fruit and veggie, just cooked in different ways.

I don't eat grains, or dairy, or nuts (except pistacios) or soy, so it really cuts down on the lunch options.
